The Dorking
100% Dorking. Two thousand years of history in every shell. When Roman legions marched into Britain, they brought these five-toed birds with them. Count the toes: five instead of four. It's a genetic marker of their antiquity, a trait so old it predates modern breeding. Dorkings are calm, excellent foragers, and produce creamy white eggs with exceptional flavor.

The Heritage Story
The Dorking is ancient. Two thousand years later, the breed remains virtually unchanged—a living connection to the earliest days of domesticated poultry. This is not a commercially viable breed. They grow slowly and lay modestly. We raise them because some things are worth preserving.
The Yolk
Golden, exceptional flavor.
