Our first delivery along I25 was a success!

6/15/2020

0 Comments

 
As many of you probably know we are now offering delivery along I25, from southern Colorado all the way up into Wyoming. 
This past weekend was our first delivery and I think it went pretty well. We has about 15 deliveries and somehow, the traffic cooperated and all of our customers were on time, which allowed us to be on time for every delivery. We don't expect it to go this smoothly but are grateful it did! As of now, we are still planning on offering deliveries!

Thank you to all of our customers and for your patience with us.

Who doesn't like to see baby chick pictures!

Chickens, especially newly hatched chicks that just want to run around and explore...or sleep.... are not always all that easy to get good pictures of! I think my Mom did a pretty good job, especially considering she did it all alone.
​We currently have limited availability, despite our farm page saying we are sold out!

New "Chickie" Barn and new baby chicks :-)

MANY, MANY more pictures to come!!

Picture

Happy, healthy, hungry chicks!

Our chicks spend their first few weeks in a commercial brooder. This provides a consistent temperature in a draft free environment that helps get the chicks off to a good start.


Picture

That's a "Chickie Nursery" ?!?!?

Their house isn’t even complete yet but my Dad is busting his butt to build our new “Chickie Nursery”….among many other projects! Did I happen to mention he is 70!!!!
In addition to our commercial brooder, our nursery is insulated and has plenty of room for future transition pens. Once the chicks start are a few weeks old, they will be moved into larger pens that allow them space to run around and start testing out their wings but yet still provide a warm and secure environment. Once they are starting to feather out nicely, they will be able to spend time outdoors, before going to their new homes!!
