chickens

Our breeding plan is currently focused on Speckled Sussex Chickens.  They make an excellent dual purpose breed. 

 

 

They are easy keepers and make great pets with purpose.  Roosters are gentle (or they are butchered - we don't put up with nonsense here) and take care of their hens.  Extra roosters also make excellent table birds.  Hens are great layers and moms.  

 

While we prefer that nature take its course and chickens brood and hatch their own chicks we do also help them along by incubating and brooding chicks as well.  Hatching begins in February of each year.
