We specialize in poultry and the sale of their offspring. Our main interest is improvement of heritage and cold tolerant breeds with unique plumage or egg laying abilities. All pictures are actual parent stock.
Cuckoo marans lay terracotta to milk chocolate colored eggs, on average 4 or 5 days a week. Their disposition is extremely friendly and they are well suited to being confined during the cold winters, as well as foraging free range in the summer. They also grow to a nice table size of 8 plus pound hens and 10 plus pound roosters. I have both clean and feathered leg cuckoo marans, so not all may have leg feathering
The blue silver marans are smaller than my other breeds of marans at 6-7 pound hens and around 8-9 pound roosters. They lay the darkest of all my marans and also lay 4-5 days out of the week year round. They are happy in confinement or free ranging. The blue silver do have leg feathering. Note: not all will have the silver, as some of my hens are pure blue.
The black silver marans are smaller than my other breeds of marans at 6-7 pound hens and around 8-9 pound roosters. They lay the darkest of all my marans and also lay 4-5 days out of the week year round. They are happy in confinement or free ranging. The black silver do have leg feathering,. Note: not all will have the silver, as some of my hens are pure black.
We crossed our prize winning Barnevelder line with ameraucana. The end result of two years of meticulous culling is a double laced, blue legged, rose combed, massively bearded and muffed, olive egg layer. The barnevelder genes substantially increased the size of the birds to around 9 pound roosters and 7 pound hens. The rose comb is also more preferred for our cold climate, so you don't have to worry about them freezing off. The hens lay an olive egg around 5 days a week. The olive carton of eggs has two white campine eggs in it to show the color better.
We also offer started pullets. There is a $1 fee per bird for every two weeks the birds have been grown. Cockerels of various ages are always available. Call or text to find out what is currrently available.
Named after Cayuga Lake in New York, cayuga ducks are a very popular breed coveted for both their beauty and their gray/black eggs. Their black feathers shimmer green in the sunlight. They are a heavy breed, so they winter over well, with just a coop for the subzero nights.
Runners are an egg laying breed, that coexist well with other types of fowl, due to their smaller stature and their lack of need for a large water source. However, they do need more coop space during winter, because they do stay inside most of the time when the temps are below 20 or so.
Heritage breed of turkey that is shades of slate grey to blue. Excellent forager, if allowed to free range. Females are 15-20 pounds and males 20-30 pounds at maturity.
Stunning birds, but they do need a very secure, large flight pen in order to be happy. They only need a covered branch out of direct wind to withstand our winters.
Chicks $20
