The Hatchery
Chickens, Ducks Guinea Fowl and Eggs
We have fertilized and fresh chilled eggs available from our free-range, pastured chickens
beginning in March and ending in October.
We hatch chicks regularly Spring through Summer and offer a straight run of
Blackmon's Barnyard Blend of Brahma-cross, Ameraucana-cross and other mixed breeds in a variety of colors for a flock like no other, or
Blackmon's Funky Flock of Polish-crosses with crests in a variety of colors.
We also have a limited number of roosters each year for flock or freezer and
pure bred Polish, Brahma and Ameraucana roosters to add to your flock.
Our chickens are unvaccinated and anti-biotic free.
Our chicks are raised on starter/grower crumble that includes amprolium to help prevent coccidiosis; amprolium is not an antibiotic and is not affected by the Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD)
Hens begin laying at 18-22 weeks of age (up to 28 weeks for Brahmas) and egg production slows in winter.
