I have young started stock available each fall. Contact me for a list of available stock.
I begin taking orders for young started birds – fall delivery, pick-up, and shipping – on June 1st of each year. I stop taking orders for young started birds on December 31st each year. Those with inquiries and requests for young started birds after December 31st will need to contact me on or after June 1st of the next year to be placed on my wait list. If you do not contact me early then there is the chance that I will run out of the breed or color you are wanting. If you know you want birds from me but it is after December 31st and before June 1st please feel free to contact me with your questions but also know that it is your responsibility to contact me again after June 1st to be placed on my wait list for birds.
I will try to post prices before August 1st and update if needed once the hatching season is complete and I have a better idea of how many and what kind of stock I will have for sale in the fall. Prices vary according to individual quality.
Pet quality and lower end breeder birds will become available first. High end breeder birds and show birds will be available later and not before October. The birds will be ready when I have been able to evaluate them properly.
I fill orders on a first come first served basis.
2020 hatch prices have been uploaded below and 2022 prices are pending.

Pet Quality Poultry
Sometimes I have pet quality stock available. My pet quality poultry usually have comb, color, size, and/or feather defects and do not have serious malformations or physical defects that would prevent them from living a normal healthy life. Pet quality is not show quality and most likely will not produce breeder or show offspring because of their defects.
Pet quality stock are priced at a discount, contact me for prices and availability.

Live Bird Shipping:
Shipping is only available for young started birds (4+ months old) and some breeder birds. I DO NOT ship outside the Continental US, to Hawaii, or to Alaska. Check with your local post office for specific regulations.
Shipping prices are subject to change due to the USPS changing their prices. Prices on birds do not include the shipping box or Express mail postage cost. You pay the actual shipping price plus the cost of the appropriate shipping box for your size bird and amount of birds.
All birds are shipped via the United States Postal Service (USPS) using their Express mailing service, no exceptions. Spee-Dee shipping services are NOT available for Indiana. Insurance in the amount of $100 will be provided at no fee with every box (NOT per bird). Additional insurance is available upon request and will be an additional charge per USPS prices (which is usually just a couple dollars more).
I ship birds as the weather permits. The USPS will ship lives when temperatures are above 10ºF and below 85ºF degrees. I don't ship if its over 70ºF for day time highs or under 32ºF. Some zip codes are restricted for air flight and ground shipping is sometimes an option. I ship live birds on Mondays and Tuesdays. Since the USPS does not guarantee that live birds will arrive overnight, even when shipped Express be forewarned that shipping is at your own risk but to date we have not had any cases of lost/dead birds. Healthy birds ship very well. Express has guaranteed delivery of 1-3 days for live birds.
It is your responsibility to make sure you can PICK THE BIRDS UP FROM THE POST OFFICE AS SOON AS THEY ARRIVE! It is extremely important that you let your post office know in advance that you are expecting a shipment of live birds and that you want to be notified as soon as they arrive. It is your responsibility to make arrangements with your post office about pick up and leaving your phone number with them so they can contact you when the birds arrive. I will email you the tracking number for the package so you can track it online but be warned that the USPS is very bad for not updating tracking information.
You have to provide me with your phone number so I can mark the outside of the box with your phone number in the event the shipping label becomes damaged or is accidentally removed. If there are any weeks you will be out of town and cannot receive birds please let me know ASAP.
I do not replace or send refunds for DOA birds or birds that die shortly after arrival. Claims can be filed for late delivery or dead birds with the USPS. I advise you to open the box in the presence of a postal worker when you pick up your birds. If you cannot get help from your local post office workers ask them for the phone number of the local Consumer Affairs and ask them for help. I will help where I can but I don't have much experience with filing claims with the USPS because I've not had many problems with them.
The actual and final amount for postage will be determined when I have picked out your birds because the postage is based largely on weight. Once I’ve picked your specific birds out I will weigh them and I will let you know the total amount for postage that will be due before the birds are shipped. I can estimate a weight pretty accurately because I've shipped several birds.
Please send me your shipping information! When you buy from me I need your name, street address, city, state, zip code, phone number, and email address in order to ship you birds. I will not add your name to my wait list if you do not provide this information to me if you need birds shipped to you!!
Shipping Boxes:
Acquiring the shipping box is my responsibility. However, if you want to purchase your own box and have it shipped to me then you are welcome to do so. I will just need you to let me know you plan on doing that. The price for the shipping box is nonnegotiable and based on the amount and size of your birds. I shop around for the best prices and buy in bulk whenever I can to save. All boxes will be Horizon Micro-environments brand, no exceptions. I will not sacrifice quality when it comes to shipping my birds. It usually takes 7-10 days for me to receive the box(es) from my suppliers.

Guarantee:
Unfortunately I can't make any guarantees once a bird or egg leaves my farm due to circumstances beyond my control, such as tragedies in shipping or owner's improper care after arrival. I do not guarantee fertility or hatchability. I do not accept any returns or issue any refunds. I will do everything in my power to make a situation right but at my discretion and within reason.
