A hatchery is a facility where eggs are hatched under artificial conditions, especially those of fish, poultry or even turtles. It may be used for ex situ conservation purposes, i.e. to breed rare or endangered species under controlled conditions; alternatively, it may be for economic reasons (i.e. to enhance food supplies or fishery resources).

The first shipment was horrific, but replacement is great.

We purchased 10 ISA Browns to have as backyard pets/Egg layers. We received 11 instead of 10 but all came healthy and we’re happy to have one more. They were a bit traumatized from the ride here but within a day they were following my husband around like he was their mama hen! They have SO much personality. Aside from a little clean up, these chickens might be the smartest and most loyal pets we’ve had! We are very pleased with our purchase/new family members. Thank you!

Finally got these sweet birds in. All have been gentle and playful. One passed the other night after 3 weeks, it’s bound to happen. The rest seem healthy as can be.
