Our meat birds are pasture-raised and are also offered non-GMO feed as needed. If the number of chicks we have brought home from the hatchery is smaller, we like to put the chicks under a broody hen on the farm. The hen then adopts the chicks and teaches them how to find food, dust bathe, and live a normal chicken life. Yes, this method does take longer for the little chicks to grow up, but they can run like other chickens when they are fully grown. Larger batches of chicks miss out on the adoption process but still enjoy a life of freedom (excluding our front yard flower gardens)–feasting and foraging in the fresh air!
Chickens are sold frozen, either whole or cut up. $4.00 per pound. When ordering, please specify whether you’d prefer a 3-4 lb. or 5-6 lb. chicken. All chickens must be fully paid for before the processing date.
