What makes us different from other hatcheries and backyard poultry breeders?!!
Our commitment for striving for the BEST at prices everyone can afford.
Our healthy, wholesome, hearty, naturally raised stock, free from hormones.
Our selection of breeds, - from production oriented stock to ornamental breeds that will cater to a wide selection of customer's interest.
Customers can personally hand select the chicks of their choice and purchase as few as 1, or as many as available.
We have found over the years, that many youth (4-Hers, FFA, etc) and exhibitors have poured out their life savings into raising poultry that they believed to be show worthy, only to find out that the breeder that they acquired their birds from did not have parent stock that meets American Poultry Association (APA) Standards for showing. Plain and simple, just because a person/breeder may charge a lot of money for their baby chicks, does not guarantee that they will be show quality. Matter-a-fact, even if the parent stock was shown successfully, that is still not a guarantee that all the offspring will be show quality. Your chances of obtaining show stock are better if the parents do meet the APA Standards.
And this is the foundation of how OUR breeding standards were created. We originally purchased young quality stock from reputable breeders and raise this stock to adulthood. Should this stock at any point, not conform to the Standards set forth by the American Poultry Association, they would be culled out. Year after year, we continue this selective breeding regiment, - saving the best and culling the rest. We also went that extra mile and exhibited many of the poultry breeds we raise, constantly seeking APA Judges' input on our successes and what needed improvement. After all, it cost the same to raise a bird that conforms to its breed standards as it does to raise a non-conforming, inferior bird.
Along with raising poultry that conforms within the Breed Standards, we also wanted to make these chicks affordable to the average person. We didn't want people having to pay so much money for so little promise. After all, if you can purchase 10 of our chicks for the same price as 3 of someone else's chicks, both chicks having show quality parent stock, you will definitely stand a better chance of obtaining show worthy chicks with the greater numbers.
So, what if you are not interested at all into showing your birds? Most of us, love to see beauty and these birds, whether they are show or pet quality, are beautiful representatives of their breed.
We raise our birds with a good parent stock, a healthy environment, quality feed and the utmost care. We do not vaccine our stock as we feel our birds have a healthy immune system and don't wish to compromise their systems by the introduction of medication or vaccines. Our birds have been tested by National Poultry Improvement Program (NPIP) and found to be disease free.
We take pride in our customer service. We work with you one-on-one to learn what you are looking for and to try to fill your needs. Whether you are looking for a small backyard flock, egg production, organic meat, dual purpose birds, pest control, exhibition, or something else - we will attempt to find the right bird for you.
And that's what makes us different...
