About: Isa Brown Chickens are renowned egg layers that have the world record for the most eggs laid by a chook in one year. Isa browns are also quite a placid breed and well-suited to young children.
Ideal for those who would like a family pet that will grow up to lay fresh eggs. Heating for the first 3-4 weeks of the chick's life is essential for most of the year.
Other Types of Chickens Available: Chicks for Sale, Black Australorps, White Leghorns, Isa Browns, Hens & Ducks.
Sex Selections: Is it a hen or a rooster?
We purchase our hens and roosters separately from our suppliers (at a premium) so that you can buy with confidence, knowing that in 6 months, you will have fresh eggs and not a crowing rooster. Though we can't guarantee the sex of your bird (because the sexing procedure of hatcheries is not perfect), you can be sure that we are selling our birds as hens in good faith.
It is not unknown for some outlets to buy mixed sex chicks cheaply and then sell them all as hens. So, you end up with, on average, half roosters and half hens. We have been selling poultry for many years and have achieved an excellent success rate with hens.
Chick Temperature Control:
Baby chicks, up until about 3-4 weeks of age, cannot generate their own body heat, so they require an artificial heat source, such as a heat lamp or globe lamp, to help maintain their body temperature. During hot weather conditions, the heating should be reduced or stopped. This needs to be monitored to ensure the chicks are kept at a temperature of around 26-29 degrees. Please see the staff in-store on how to keep your baby chicks warm.
