We are taking preorders for our April hatch now! Feel free to text or email with special requests and to preorder.

Our flock is raised on organic pasture and forage. We supplement with non gmo layer feed and plenty of veggies and herbs from our heirloom gardens. We focus on helping our neighbors expand their egg rainbow with healthy birds that have great temperments. As a working farmstead, we also appreciate dual purpose chickens, and feed our family with extra males. If dual purpose matters to you, feel free to request that your chicks be all dual
purpose:) If you’d like to know more about our farm, available breeds and natural chicken keeping, check us out on Instagram @walnut_hollow_chicks_tn

What’s hatching in 2024:
*Rainbow Mix- $8 A beautiful assortment of chicks that will grow up to be beautiful hens that lay a rainbow of egg colors! The roosters are well tempered and great flock protectors. Many chicks will grow up to be barred, cuckoo, Splash, Blue. Some black, laced, and birchen. Some will have feathered feet, muffs and beards. Our rainbow mix will add diversity to your flock AND your egg basket.

The cockerels grow up to be excellent Roosters. Most have barred and lace feathering. This breed project includes Barred Rock, Marans, Welsummer, Wyandotte & Bielefelder genetics.
*Ocean Eggers- $8 each/ straight run. Our 2024 line leans more on the green side. Spearmint, blue greens and lighter olive shades will be most common, with some bright blue eggs.
