About the Farm

Background

Red Feather Farm is known for its dedication to the conservation of endangered chicken breeds through social awareness and proliferation. The farm offers day-old heritage chicks and hatching eggs from a select lineup of breeds, including White Chantecler, Black Sumatra, Red Jungle Fowl, and Icelandic landrace chickens. The farm aims to dispel the myth that heritage breeds are not profitable by showcasing breeds that appeal to various poultry keepers.

Practices

The farm focuses on maintaining genetic diversity in an industry dominated by large-scale monocultures. Each breed is chosen for its unique characteristics: Red Jungle Fowl for conservationists, Black Sumatras for those who appreciate beauty and showmanship, Icelandic chickens for their self-sufficiency and egg-laying capabilities, and White Chanteclers for their cold-hardiness and dual-purpose meat and egg production.

The Rest

The farm values its relationship with customers above all else, emphasizing personalized service and genuine care for animals and the future of agriculture. Customers can reserve chicks or hatching eggs for local pickup or shipment through the farm's webpage.
