FAQs - Baby Chicks
We offer both sexed and unsexed ("straight run") chicks. Unsexed chicks have a 50/50 chance of being male or female. Since it takes 6 months for chicks to start laying eggs, we recommend ordering extra to ensure you'll have enough laying hens once they're grown and laying eggs. We also sell birds of various ages, including juveniles, adults, laying hens, pullets, and roosters. View our available breeds here ... For custom orders, please contact us.
No, we do not vaccinate our flock or baby chicks. We constantly monitor this with our poultry vet to ensure our birds are healthy and robust. We are tested yearly for disease as NPIP participants and customers can be confident that they are receiving healthy, happy chicks from our farms.
Did you know?... They don't crow till about 12 weeks at the absolute earliest, most later than that.
Couple options for roosters...
1. Use him for food for the family, maybe you have a hunter in the family that could help. Often there are families that will buy or take the rooster for meat for their family.
2. Once hes older than four months old, Pratt's Pets (Glendale location) will purchase them from you for $10 per. If they're younger than four months, the Stock Shop will accept them if they have space.
3. You could also post them in the Arizona Backyard Chicken group on Facebook to rehome him. Just have to be VERY careful with your wording. Rehome, sale and wording like that is not allowed by FB.
4. Another app called MeWe you can rehome/sell there in the Arizona Backyard Chicken group but not nearly as many people in the group.

Let customers speak for us
Happy and Healthy White Leghorn Chicks!
Thank you for the wonderful service. Our white leghorn chicks were received happy and healthy and active. They arrived in CA one day after shipment and were safely packaged. We gave food, water, and heat immediately and 1.5 weeks later, they are super active, always hungry, and trying out their sprouting wing feathers. They're also doing great with our other chick breeds of similar ages. Thank you!!! Your service when I made an initial order error was much appreciated.

Hemp bedding vs straw: hemp wins
Between straw or hemp bedding, we find hemp to be the best. First of all, it’s tidier than straw. Since we have a small area for our coop, that is a nice thing. For the chickens it’s a nice thing, I’d imagine, as the claims that hemp helps controls odor must be true, as there just isn’t any to speak of! The 33lb bale of hemp bedding is conveniently delivered to our door.

I always have good experiences with Az Chickens. We buy Bresse chickens and quail chicks. We have averaged only one death per shipment, otherwise
they arrive healthy. We will continue to use Az Chickens to resupply our flock.
