Here at Briden Farm we have a great flock of chickens. Sadly too many Roosters, young cockerels! So we’re looking to get rid of a few! These are from good laying and meat stock, and great looking and dual purpose birds. So, we’d like to find people who need them. If that’s You, please let us know! 902-907-0770
