Chicken Scratch Poultry Field Trip
Suzanne and her kids recently visited Chicken Scratch Poultry (our wonderful sponsor who supplied us our hatching eggs and chicks this past spring) to pick up some new pullets for their flock.
Chicken Scratch Poultry is a NPIP-certified specialty breeder located in Illinois, owned by Larry and Angie and McEwen, that specializes in unusual and rare breeds that lay gorgeous colored eggs.

Suzanne lives not too far from the farm, so she decided to pay them a visit. She and the kids got a personal tour which included seeing the new barn being built as well as the professional incubators.
The kids had a great time looking at all the chicks and chickens of various breeds and ages.
It looks like Wyatt drives a hard bargain!
It seemed like the kids were leaning more towards chicks, but Suzanne already knew what she wanted...
and they loaded a variety of Ameraucanas, Marans and a coveted Coronation Sussex pullet into the car.
Of course the kids wanted to peep in on their new family members once they got them home and settled!
Chicken Scratch Poultry welcomes visitors to stop by to pick up hatching eggs, chicks or pullets and also ships hatching eggs, day old chicks and pullets.
Suzanne said that Larry and Angie are really wonderful people who couldnt have been more pleasant to spend the afternoon with. I can tell by my own communication with Angie that they are breeders who really care about their flock and breed preservation. We are thrilled to call them friends!
