2013 Spring Hatching Season - March
through May
We expect to hatch and sell hundreds of baby chicks this spring to help offset some of the expenses involved in the operating of Sparrow Ministries - which cleans, packages, and delivers free all the extra eggs to people in our community. I began the hatching project last year by ordering the necessary parent stock so we would be able to offer a great quality product this spring.
The bulk of our chicks will be the following:
Rhode Island Red - This is an old bread that needs no introduction to the casual farmer or owner of the back yard flock. Folks have used this breed for years and we have been pleased with the egg output and quality these birds produce. They are a medium size bird that offers great egg output or a decent table bird for the excess males.
ISA Brown / Red Sex-link - These are truly the very best layers I have ever own. They will be bred by using a Rhode Island White pullet and a Rhode Island Red roo. I expect great results from these chickens.
I have several hundred chicks already on back-order. For now the chicks will be sold as straight run only and I hope to sell them all locally without resorting to shipping them however we will see next year what works out. If you are interested then please call and place your order and I'll be glad to put you on my list and you can pick them up at address below when they are ready.
Thank you and God Bless!
