Although we're pretty much retired and no longer sell adult chickens, we continue to breed and offer chicks from our bantam chicken, quail, pheasant, and pigeon flocks. We're a small poultry/bird farm, located about a mile north of Zellwood Station, specializing in breeding ornamental chickens such as Silkies, Polish, Mille Fleur & Porcelain d'Uccles, and bantam Cornish. We also breed heritage tur

keys, fancy pigeons, rare quail and pheasants and offer seasonal chicks. We provide quality young adult laying hens and roosters for those who want to skip raising chicks. And our beautiful laying flock provides eating eggs in a rainbow of colors. We love our birds and enjoy introducing others to the joys of poultry. If you're a backyard chicken owner/lover or you're interested in chickens but don't know where to start, we're here to help. We love newbies! To schedule a visit please call, text or message Sandra. 407-491-6590. Payment types accepted: Cash, Local Checks, PayPal, CashApp, Zelle

We do not sell meat birds.

Borrowed from Meyer Hatchery. Interesting for us chicken nerds!

Shell: This is the outer layer of the egg which is made up of Calcium Carbonate. The shell contains between 7,000 to 17,000 tiny pores which allow moisture to pass through. The Bloom or Cuticle, which is the outermost coating of the shell prevents bacteria and dust from entering into the egg.

Inner and Outer Membrane: These strong membranes are made partly of keratin and are found lying between the eggshell and eggwhite. They fight off any bacteria trying to enter the egg.

Air Cell: The air cell can be found between the inner and outer membranes of the egg’s largest end. After an egg is laid the air space develops while the egg is cooling and contracting.

Albumen: This is also known as the Egg White. The albumen consists of four different layers that alternate between thick and thin, consisting of 40 different proteins. The egg white is the main component of the egg in addition to water.

Chalazae: Serves as the yolk’s anchor making sure the yolk stays in the center of the egg. When the Chalazae is very prominent, your eggs are fresher.

Vitelline Membrane: This is the clear casing that encloses the yolk.

Yolk: The yolk contains the most minerals and vitamins in the egg. It contains calcium, iron, phosphorus, thiamine, riboflavin, Vitamin A, and Vitamin D. The yolk is made up of more protein than the egg white and also contains less water. Depending on the feed and breed of your hen, the yolk will vary in color from slightly yellow to deep orange.
