Hi Beeman'
Have just done a quick Google and tapped in
Chicken Breed Burford and it looks hopeful.

Are they an autosexing breed? If not, at that age you could end up with a load of cockerels.

Thanks for your help guys,as far as i am now aware there is only one supplier.They are asking £25 each point of lay,and I thought it was only Geese that laid golden eggs.
