How does the poultry pre-order process work?
Each hatchery has a specific hatching schedule and delivery dates we adhere to. We ask that you submit orders at least four weeks in advance of the delivery date. For Ready-to-Lay birds, it is best to order your full season's needs in January or February to avoid sold-out dates.
