We are a small family farm located in churchville md.
Local pickup only. We can not ship (nor should anyone) because of the risk to their legs.
Pm us about details. Do not ask about price on here, it goes against Facebook rules and gets everyone in trouble. Thanks!

Dear egg customers,
THANK YOU for your support and helping us empty the fridge!! Our demand is beginning to exceed the supply!!! This is awesome for us and we appreciate it.
Not to worry, we noticed the chickens started to unionize and are making demands. We have come to an agreement and should have the fridge loaded for tomorrow. What consider calling in reinforcements if it continues but for now things are amicable.

Thank you for supporting family farms!

This year we are adding a few new chicken flocks to our farm. Every new flock is either a rare, critically endangered or a threatened breed! This month we ordered hatching eggs and are starting to incubate. As they grow and multiply, consider adding these breeds to your backyard flock and be a part of the conservation effort!

Going into the incubator this month:
-Sanjak Longcrowers
-Liege Fighters (don't be fooled by the name - they're very friendly!)
-Icelandic

Later this month/next month:
-Crèvecoeur
-Erminette

Maybe a few others depending on what we are able to find! Stay tuned for spotlight posts on each breed!
