Backyard Chickens at Margaret's Roost

01/23/2023

Check out our feature on Queen City News! We are disappointed at not being able to bring all our wonderful customers' spring sale dates, yet we hope to be able to have some in the fall. 🐔🐥

The bird flu and inflation are coming together to drive up the cost of egg prices all over the country.

01/20/2023

We have unfortunate news this season and will not be having spring sale dates. Due to the news of avian bird flu the hatcheries are sold out for months in advance and we were unable to get chicks in for spring sales. The prices have skyrocketed for everything including the chicks themselves, feed and typical supplies for raising the chicks the way we want to. Keep an eye out here on our page for future updates. We are sorry for any inconvenience yet hope you understand at this time. Thank you

🚨🚨🚨ATTENTION:: To all of our current customers that have deposits in for our open sale dates. Please be on the lookout for a call from us. Our hatchery has unfortunately let us know that we will not be receiving our chickens on time due to the freezing temperatures up north. We are issuing refunds for deposits for those that request it or holding your deposit until we receive our chickens and adding you to the new sales. We will create new sale dates as soon as we have chickens here on the farm. We are so sorry for any inconvenience but this is something that we have no control over. We are so disappointed that this is the start to our 2021 season.
