Since the USPS is so lousy with updating tracking, I've decided to but GPS trackers to put in each box so there will be real-time tracking. They will be available upon request. There will be a $10 deposit, I will refund you once mailed back to me.

A customer sent this to me....and all y'all breeders are nodding your heads right now. 😂

Berry picking time has started, I will be picking blackberries for the next month. This mass started as 3 thornless blackberry plants (2ft high stalk) two years ago. The third Pic is my zippo next to a berry to show you a good scale.

06/02/2024

Next lockdown post will be on the 6th, the hatch will be posted on the 9th.

On a side note: My Red Mottled produce both a darker Red Mottled and a lighter Red Mottled. I've been keeping all the darker Red and culling the lighter. Now I'm really starting to like the light Red Mottled. What's y'alls thoughts? Dark Red are the first two pics and light Red are the second two.

The Crele trio auction closed without meeting the reserve. The highest bid for the trio was $35 for the group. Sorry

Free shipping on all 18+ chick orders for the rest of the year. I will cover any DOA's if losses are more than the total cost of shipping.

05/21/2024

Y'all need to give a special thanks to Anna Hehl . She bought the last 12 chicks and added them to her box of 30. Because of Anna doing this, she has secured everyone getting free shipping on 18+ chicks for the rest of the season. Thank you Anna 🙂

Update on the Cocktown Lockdown Free Shipping post because I know it's a pain to read through all of it. This is what's left and if all goes well, I just might do free shipping on 18+ for the rest of the season. I know a lot of you have been waiting for certain colors, I'm currently doing a 12 day hatch, which means holding onto about 2 weeks worth of eggs (in certain colors) before I set them. Gold Laced, Silver Laced Chocolate, Lavender Mottled, Buff....all the ones y'all have been waiting for.

Brian T. Featherbritches became a dad today....finally! 🤦🏼‍♀️ Also the chick post will be up at 6pm eastern time. Thanks so much and Happy Mother's Day ladies.

I get a lot of people saying they don't want to order because it's too hot. It's never too hot. I ship my chicks all summer long with heat packs. The cargo hull of a plane is 55° at the warmest, postal vehicles and post offices have air conditioning, and you have air conditioning in your vehicles when you pick them up from the post office.
Also, on a side note: I have a big project going this summer. I will be growing out approximately 250-300 chicks and doing a hard cull to improve my flocks. I'm also working on Black Cuckoo, Chocolate Cuckoo, Lemon Partridge, Lemon Cuckoo and Candy Corn projects along with potentially adding White, Partridge, and Jubilee to my flocks. I will not have room for any straggler chicks that don't sell. On that note, I will be hatching per prepaid order only. You're also more than welcome to order eggs if you chose to take on that gamble....Just know I will not sell any eggs that have less than 95% fertility.
Thank you so much 💓

Shipped the first batch of eggs since 2020, I had to be creative and make my own foam shippers. Lol! I know y'all are watching for certain colors....I will not sell any eggs if fertility is less than 95%. That's why you're not seeing colors like Silver Laced Chocolate, Buff, Gold Laced, etc on there. Y'all have a good night.

Found a new transporter. She is USDA licensed, requires NPIP 9-3 forms, and is insured. She will only add on to her route if its 10 minutes from her scheduled stop. Latest drop-off is 7-9pm. She will transport eggs to adults. Chicks to adults are $75 per cage/chick box and eggs are $50/ USPS shipping box. All eggs have to be properly packaged like you would do if you were shipping through the mail.
