General Info

We are not set up to take orders over this website yet. 2026 hatching season will likely run March-June Please contact us on Facebook (preferred) Facebook.com/EdmondsEggs or e-mail: EdmondsEggs@yahoo.com

Some of the breeds we carry are auto-sex, meaning we can tell by their coloring (with 95%+ accuracy) what their gender is. These include: -Bielefelder - Crele Legbar - Olive Eggers - Welsummer Other breeds are NOT distinguishable at hatch, but you can usually get a good guess at 4-6 weeks of age. These include: -White Bresse -Swedish Flower Hen (yes, we know the name is confusing!) -Black Copper Marans -Zombies -Silverruds -Ayam Cemani PULLET- female COCKEREL- male STRAIGHT RUN- gender unknown

We don't automatically vaccinate our chicks. We do offer the Mareks Vaccine if a customer buys the whole vial (~$75, and I add an additional $25 for my 90min drive to get it). It is only sold in 1000 dose vials and has to be disposed of an hour after mixing, so its not cost effective for us to do this automatically

We will always do our best to make sure every customer has a positive experience with us! We are happy to offer counseling on the best ways to raise your new feathered friends, and are always here to answer questions, but unfortunately, we have no control over the conditions our chicks are kept in once they leave our brooders, and thus can not guarantee them once they leave our home. While we provide the best care possible for our flocks, these are still chicks/chickens and are a bit fragile by nature so some things are inevitable.

We usually have a pretty good idea of how many chicks will hatch each week, which helps us plan ahead. But since we’re working with live animals, there are always a few things beyond our control — like weather swings, illness, incubator hiccups, or the occasional unexpected loss. During hatching sometimes we get a large percentage of boys from the Sex-linked breeds! Because of that, some breeds may not be available some weeks, but we don't usually know how many/what we have until we actually pull them from the hatchers! We truly appreciate your understanding — farm life keeps us on our toes, and we’re grateful for your patience and support! 🐣

We’re a very small operation, hatching only limited batches during a short part of the year. Each of our birds is personally known and deeply cared for — we put a whole lot of time, money, and love into our flocks! When you buy from us, you’re getting the offspring of carefully hand-selected breeders that we’ve spent years refining for quality, health, and type — and we’ll keep working to improve them with each generation. Most of our original lines came from reputable, high-quality breeders across the country. Every chick we hatch gets individual attention — a few cuddles and a full health check (to the best of our ability!) before being offered for sale. Our goal is to make sure only the healthiest, strongest chicks go to new homes. In contrast, large-scale hatcheries (like those that supply most feed stores) focus on quantity over quality. Chicks are often hatched in huge numbers and shipped out immediately, sometimes before they’ve even fully recovered from hatching. Sadly, many don’t survive the stress of transport, and those that do often struggle to thrive.

Due to flock containment health and biohazard protection, we are not able to take any birds back once they have left the premises. When buying straight run chicks, you should assume you will end up with both boys and girls, so have a plan in place beforehand for unwanted roosters!

We unfortunately don't offer bulk buy discounts

99% of our sales are day old chicks only. On rare occasions we will sell adult birds, but that's only if we need to downsize or retire older hens, so its not often.

Heritage breed chickens have been around for generations, and because they haven’t been overbred for production, they tend to be much healthier and live longer than modern, high-output breeds. These traditional lines are known for their hardiness, strong genetics, and natural resilience — qualities often lost in commercial birds bred purely for egg numbers. While heritage breeds may lay fewer eggs than commercial layers, what you gain is a healthier, longer-lived bird with plenty of personality and charm. Most of our flock is made up of heritage breeds, including the American Bresse, a remarkable breed with over 500 years of history behind it.
