Our Chicken Breeds

We raise a selection of heritage and specialty chicken breeds, focusing on temperament, productivity, and long-term soundness.

Our flock reflects years of hands-on experience, intentional breeding decisions, and a deep respect for the history and future of the birds we raise.

Pricing & Availability

Pricing varies by breed, age, and availability is seasonal. Each breed page includes current pricing details for that specific breed.

​

If you have questions after reviewing a breed, we’re always happy to help.

Why We Raise These Breeds

We don’t choose breeds based on trends or what’s easiest to raise.

​

Each breed here has a reason for being part of our program — whether that’s preserving genetics that were nearly lost, improving lines that deserve better stewardship, honoring the legacy of past breeders, or advancing functional traits like auto-sexing and egg color genetics.

​

Many of our birds are rare or uncommon, but they are also practical, productive farm birds. We believe beauty should earn its place, and that responsible breeding means thinking generations ahead — not just one hatch at a time.

 

Our focus is long-term soundness, intentional genetics, and raising birds we genuinely believe in.
