The Hebridean is no longer found on the Hebridean Islands of Scotland but has survived to this day as an ornamental parkland breed. Our own flock was established from the Whipsnade Zoo gene bank flock in 1969 and has been the foundation for the many small hobby flocks throughout the country. Like many of our once critically rare breeds the Hebridean is now greatly benefiting from the active support of an association of breeders promoting its' attributes.
