When will my chicks ship?

We start shipping out chicks in mid to late March depending on the weather. We start taking preorders in November and try our best to get orders out in the order that we receive them. We are a small family-run hatchery and try to get orders out as quickly as possible. If you would like to receive your order in early spring I would highly recommend getting your order in by December. We try our best to give you an accurate estimated time of arrival. These are estimates, not guarantees. We have a limited number of chicks shipping out every week and chicken laying and hatching can be unpredictable. If your chicks are taking too long and you are tired of waiting just give us a call and we will issue you a full refund no questions asked. You are not locked into your order once it’s placed.

How will my chicks ship?

Chicks will ship USPS Priority Express 1-2 business days

Is it safe for the chicks?

The vast majority of the chicks we ship arrive alive and arrive healthily but we all know that the post office can be unpredictable sometimes, packages take longer than expected or become lost completely. This is tragic and if you are one of the unlucky few to lose their chicks in shipment just contact us and we will be happy to reship or refund your order.

How old are they?

All chicks are one day old at the time of shipment

Can I pick the sex?

No. We exclusively ship straight runs. We do not sex chicks before shipment.

Are my chicks breedable?

Yes. We have a lot of different breed pens and you will receive a mix of different pens.

Are they Vaccinated?

Chicks are vaccinated for Marek's disease before shipment

Can I get mixed breed chicks?

No. will only raise pure breed chicken.

I have a pre-order. Will I lose my deposit if I change my mind?

No. We know life happens. If you change your mind about your order for any reason, prior to your order being shipped, just give us a call. We will refund your order in full, no questions asked.

What about Avian Influenza?

We are NPIP compliant. The USDA comes out to test our birds regularly and we are not allowing guests on the farm. Only a handful of people are allowed around the birds to prevent infection from getting tracked into the pens on anyone’s shoes and we use 1” mesh netting on all of our pens to prevent wild birds from spreading disease. All chicks that are shipped are hatched in an incubator and never have any interaction with the flock.

Some states have restricted shipments of chicks if avian influenza has been detected in the state of origin in the past 30 days. If that happens we will contact you and will either hold the order until the restrictions are lifted or refund you on the order.
