We are accepting roosters if anyone needs to rehome any. We do require a fee to drop them off. We also take in hens (even if they’ve stopped laying) to keep these roosters company. There is no fee for hens. Please message us, if you need to find placement for your birds. Located in Jackson & Howell NJ.

Learning post:

This is why it is very important to have the correct humidity. When you don’t have the correct humidity it makes hatchlings weak and unable to position for hatch on their own which resulted in them suffocating/drowned. Seeing as the yolk sacs are not absorbed and the hatchlings are wet this is due to high humidity during incubation. humidity increases the incidence of unabsorbed yolk sac and unhealed navels. Inadequate incubation humidity results in excessive water retention in the egg and slow healing navels. Which is why the yolk sac is still not absorbed. These birds were unable to get into position for hatch due to being weak

The first go around you ALWAYS want to track air cells or weigh your eggs (if dark) to find the best humidity for your area.
It is also very important that you know where your hot and cold spots are in your incubator.
Make sure you have at least two calibrated reading instruments. Example: the govees (can find on Amazon) to make sure your incubator readings are correct.

This is NOT just for this method. You want to train yourself to make sure all your equipments is working 100% and that everything is tested correctly, for all methods. If you want to have a good hatch, you must test your equipment regularly. Also make sure to clean them thoroughly after every hatch.

I work multiple jobs, and manage the farm daily - majority of the time it’s by MYSELF.

Please do NOT waste my time by making an appointment to drop off a rooster and then after I leave to drop the rooster off at the farm, ask for the farms address. It is explained to everyone why we do NOT allow people to drop off animals at the farm. Biosecurity should be practiced DAILY NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THIS AVIAN FLU!

I am more than pi**ed off that I just drove and wasted gas for someone to not give 2 sh*ts that they just wasted my time and money.

Rooster drop offs are now 25. That’s per bird.
I will not give a discount for multiple, unless I’m looking for a particular breed you may have. The animals on our homestead and our roosters are rehomed as pets- NOT FOOD!

I have a young all black *not laying yet* special needs Easter Egger pullet up for discussion. 12-14 weeks old. She gets around just fine. What happened to her is not genetic, and will not prevent her from laying eggs. She’s ✌️🖐 to a good home. PM serious inquiries only

Does anyone have any of these lying around that they’d like to sell cheap or get rid of for free? They will be put into predator safe runs. Looking to get more of these so our boys and their girls can stay safely separated from our other flocks. Can’t be easy to break into, rotting or falling apart- I don’t have the time to fix anything unfortunately.
Thanks in advance for any possible leads!

We can take in roosters if you need to find them a home. Please pm us.

The upcoming batches of chicks will NOT be vaccinated. If you need your chick vaccinated please send us a PM and preorder your chicks. I’ve been back and forth about whether or not to vaccinate all— but I think it’s time we strive to build resistance. If you have any questions, feel free to PM us. Thank you!

Over the past fifty years, Marek’s disease—an illness of fowl—has become fouler. Marek’s is caused by a highly contagious virus, related to those that cause herpes in humans. It spreads through the dust of contaminated chicken coops, and caused both paralysis and cancer. In the 1970s, new va...

I have a bunch of small dog crates and pet carriers available for those who need to break a broody. Asking $15 each for the carriers, and $25 for the small metal dog crates. Since we will be relocating our chickens soon, I am trying to downsize some of our equipment to make the move easier. (We have transport carriers for our move).

I have the cutest little bantam rooster if anyone is looking. I was going to keep him for a project pen (he’s an Easter Egger cross) but my project pen went in a different direction.

If anyone is interested his name is little man, and I can get pictures of him. He is maybe 1-2 lbs! He’s the sweetest and loves attention.
