It's simple to start your flock with our chicken delivery. Just select the type of baby chicks you want and they'll be carefully shipped to you by a professional, well cared for hatchery. (For each breed you order, you'll get 8 baby chicks.)

Raising Backyard Chickens is Simpler Than You Think!

• Little time is needed.
• You'll get fresh eggs. (1 chicken = 1 egg per day!)
• Your yard will be fertilized, naturally. And your chickens will clean up the bugs.
• Eggs keep for up to 2 weeks without refrigeration if unwashed.
• No rooster needed! On average, you'll get one unfertilized egg per day per chicken.
• Chickens naturally come home to the coop every night. Just close the door once they're in.
• Plus, chicken bedding makes great compost!

Homesteading Hint: You don't need a rooster to raise chickens. Roosters are loud and can annoy neighbors. But raising chickens is totally unobtrusive without the rooster.

Note: "Straight Run" means as hatched (could be both males and females, just males, or just females).
