2025 chick pre-orders are COMING!

Orders will fill on a first come first served basis, and chicks are a great way to start up or build up your flock without gambling on shipped eggs. Don’t waste any time, as spring will be here before you know it! We are releasing a limited number of chicks for pre-order and popular breeds will go fast. Throughout the season, more will be released as we catch up on orders, so keep checking back if you don’t see what you want! By placing a Pre-Order, you’ll secure the breeds you want for 2025 and experience a smoother transaction.

For a list of chicks available to ship NOW, visit our available now page, which is updated weekly.

Please view our chick shipping policy before placing your order. By placing an order, you are agreeing to those policies.

our breeds

Huxley’s Homestead currently has 12 large breeding pens and one mixed flock. Each flock is fed an all-natural diet that is high in vitamins. They are also provided with pasture-range of 6+ acres on a rotating schedule. We want our chickens to be able to do what chickens are meant to do – forage and run free. 

Our current breeding pens consist of:

– BBS, Buff, Paint, and Calico Splash Silkies

– Lavender (Self Blue) Ameraucana

– BBS Ameraucana

– Black Copper Marans

– Rhode Island Reds
