Rhode Island Hatchery is dedicated to providing the best in quality poultry. We raise a variety of egg layer chickens, exotic breeds, and waterfowl. Our focus is on hatching and raising healthy chickens and exotic birds that thrive in any environment.
We offer a wide variety of production egg layers, rare breeds, and colored egg layers. We offer different breeds periodically throughout the year depending on what we are hatching at that time.
Yes, we vaccinate chicks for mareks and coccidiosis to ensure their health. Birds over the age of 8 weeks are also preventively dewormed to help ensure a smooth transition to your new flock.
Yes, we sell a range of adult chickens, including hens ready to lay. The older the birds get, the faster they sell out. If we don't have them available right now, check back soon or place a deposit to hold the breeds you want until your ready to pick up.
Chicks can be purchased from one day old to several weeks old, depending on your needs. All birds under 2 months of age had a 12 chick minimum.
All birds who haven't laid eggs yet should be fed 18%- 20% protein crumbles, this is commonly called chick feed/starter/grower. Once they lay their first egg, switch to 16% layer feed. Its important to note that all birds can eat both feeds with no issues, but the younger birds grow faster on the higher protein, and the hens currently laying benefit from the higher calcium in the layer feed.
Granite grit and oyster shells should be given free choice before they start to lay and throughout their life. Grit is important to all birds to help breakdown their food, and oyster shell is helpful to keep the egg shells strong.
