Hertzler Farm & Feed Inc.

We are happy to have some new partnerships in the store. These are local vendors growing and producing their products. These make great Christmas gifts….

• Chicory Hill Farm: Natural, grass-fed beef, pork and poultry.
• Batteaux Coffee Company:  Coffee beans and freshly ground Medium & Dark Roast plus a Holiday Blend. 
• Local grown honey harvested from two local growers, Tom O’Neil and John Davis.
• Pat’s Kitchen: My own Friendship Cakes: Cinnamon Pecan and White Chocolate Macadamia and Blue Berry Buckle Cakes.

I hope to have baby chick information SOON.  We will be starting to take orders after January 1. The hatchery we were getting our chicks from has sold and I am in the process of looking for my best option for varieties and prices. I hope to have that settled soon so I can share that information with you.

Red Sex Link Pullets 

A new batch is coming in before the end of December. Call to be on our list or you probably will not get. 804-598-4021.

These are probably the best egg layers out there, producing 250-320 eggs per year. The full-grown hens weigh around 6 lbs. They lay a golden brown large egg. Their country of origin is the United States.

I normally carry full grown Golden Comet pullets year round. They are around 4 months old when they come in.  Right now everyone wants hens because of egg prices and the supply chain can not meet the demands.  You need to be on my call list in order to get hens. 

For questions or orders, please call the store 804-598-4021. Do not email as it takes too much time to respond to all the requests and it is so much typing. Thanks for your understanding.

Our chicken policy:

We will NOT sell you chickens if you do not  bring a safe,  ventilated, carrying cage or box with holes to put them in.  We will use our discretion as to what is a safe number to put in the container.  Just remember, the hens must be able to stand upright, not piled in your cage/box and have proper ventilation.

• We will NOT stack (pile) chickens in container.
• We will NOT stack (pile) them in plastic or net bags.

This is for our and your safety and protection from environmental and humane animal         handling standards.

We do sell the pet kennel style of carrying crates.

We want to thank you for your help and cooperation on this issue.
