Chick Orders will close at 4pm on the estimated close day.

This is to ensure we do not miss our order window with the hatchery due to time differences. 

​​

Chick Orders are paid in advance.

If not paid by the cutoff the order is not counted.

• See: Order dates

​

Chick orders may close earlier than the estimated date.

This occurs due to high local demand causing us to hit our store order limit early or on request from the hatchery.

To avoid disappointment we recommend ordering early.

Orders open in February or March depending on hatchery confirmations. 

​

Delivery dates are estimates.

Pickup times cannot be determined until flight confirmation from the hatchery.

You will receive a call from us on the first phone number you provide with any information changes. Messages will be left if the phone is not answered.

Due to  volume of orders and staffing limits the second number is reserved for  if we need to  contact you last minute due to unforeseen circumstances.

We have seen delivery  dates change by a week or two, especially later in the ordering year. Chicks can arrive either early in the morning or in the evening.

We will not know until the flight confirmation what time the birds are expected to arrive.

​

Chicks must be picked up on the date and time slot provided.

We are unable to keep chicks overnight for their own health and safety.

Please ensure your phone number is correct,

update us if any changes are needed to the first number,

and if you don't hear from us by a week before estimated delivery date,

do give the store a call to check on the order.

​

Refunds cannot be given after the order date has closed.

Egg layers are being sexed to hens.

Unfortunately Barred Plymouth Rock, Rhode Island Red and Columbian Rock x

are harder to sex, this means if you cannot have a cockerel,

avoid these breeds as roosters are more likely to slip through.
