Welcome to our boutique family business breeding heritage hen, roosters and chicks.
Heritage breeds of chicken have the advantage of being much longer lived than the more recent breeds (e.g. Hyline ) while also retaining their spectacular plumage and hardy nature. They will remain productive for many years.
From time to time we also sell Hyline hens which we raise from day old chicks to point of lay (around 20 weeks). These hens will produce their maximum output of eggs from 6- 18 months of age.
We also sell a range of chicken related products including quality Sharpes Stock food, Chook Manor accessories and pine shavings by the bag.
We would be delighted to assist you to choose your next pullet/rooster or fertile eggs.
Raising chickens for eggs or meat is a practical way for everyone have fresh healthy food right on your doorstep. It is also entertaining and enjoyable!
Our business is centrally located on Houchens Road, Glenview in Hamilton.
We are open Monday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, from 10.00 am - 6.00 pm or by appointment.
We offer EFTPOS for your convenience or you can pay via internet banking.
Our personal touch is our strength- we cater to individual needs and requests and are happy to offer advice and practical help where possible.
Pullets are available for most of the year between the months of October and May.
Fertile egg availability varies from month to month also so please let us know your requirements.
