Important notes about our hatching eggs:
We will do our best, with the cooperation of the hens, to include additional eggs when available.
Hatching out eggs that have been shipped is a gamble! If you are not willing to take the risk, please do not purchase! Rough handling of the boxes can occur at any point in shipment, damaging air sacs, breaking eggs, and in some cases destroying entire shipments. We are not to be held responsible for those sorts of damages and cannot replace eggs damaged in this manner. We can only guarantee that each egg is carefully marked, carefully wrapped, carefully packaged, and shipped as promptly as possible after collection. We do not ship old eggs, and we do not ship the first pullet eggs. Eggs are gathered daily and marked while still standing in each and every breeding pen. There is no danger of any of our roosters or hens "hopping a fence" or any such calamity, as each breeding group is in their own individual 6 foot tall pen that includes a wire roof over each and every pen. Our birds are far too valuable to practice "free ranging", so no surprises there, either. We do not sell randomly mixed breeds, and you will find no mixed breeds in our hatching eggs. If purchasing eggs from some of our project pens, that information will be clearly stated for your choices, and the eggs will be clearly marked for your sorting/hatching needs.

Chicks are available starting in March or April of each year - subject as always to the hens and their desires to provide potential acceptable progeny in a timely manner, and of course dependent upon weather conditions on both ends of their route
We ship chicks that are 1 to 4 weeks old, as we have found they handle the rigors inflicted by the shipping process from our rural area much better than day-olds. This age also allows us to cull out any weak and/or obviously inferior chicks (for example, you will NOT receive clean-legged Marans chicks from us, nor crooked toes or deformed beaks on any chick! All Sultans will have 5 toes on each foot!) prior to shipment to better assist the survival rate and of course increase your satisfaction.

Shipments of chicks of this age will be straight run only, no sorting and no guessing as to what sex they may be. If ordering a mixture of breeds, each chick will be marked so that you can easily discern which breed is which.

Minimum order is 6 chicks.

We ship chicks March through November, weather permitting - only if the temperatures are unusually cool will we ship in July or August.

PLEASE CHECK YOUR STATE AND LOCAL LIVE BIRD SHIPPING REGULATIONS BEFORE YOU PLACE AN ORDER! We ship only to the contiguous 48 states, and only to those states/locations that allow live bird shipments, and do not require testing beyond the standard NPIP tests. It is your responsibility to dig up this information. We will NOT be held responsible for chicks/birds that are undeliverable due to your state and/or local post office regulations.

Size of bird(s) will determine the size of bio-secure shipping container that will be required for your purchase, and the cost of that container will be included in your invoice.
All birds are shipped with a snack geared to the age of the birds and the distance they must travel. They are very well fed and watered prior to going into their travel container, as all birds receive special feeding the week before they are shipped, including extra vitamins, electrolytes, and extra protein.

Potential Canadian Customers - we are working with an individual that can legally import your favorite rare breeds in to Canada. Contact us for details! We recently exported a group of rare Isbars to Canada!
