Pioneer Chickens 🐓

We're experimenting with our last batch of meat chickens for the year. They just went into the brooder this week. Instead of raising all Cornish Cross, we are trying out the Pioneer breed. You can see in the picture, they are a little different in their looks. For one, they have a naked neck. They were originally bred from Transylvanian Naked Necks, Delewares, and Cornish Cross chickens. This bird is supposed to be a bit slower growing with a stronger skeletal structure and a hardier survival rate which is key when you're raising birds outside. We're excited to give them a try and see how they perform out on the pasture and then onto your plate. Coming your way soon!

In a world of chickens, be a duck

Chickens and turkeys often greet newcomers with pecks and aggression, but ducks are different—welcoming birds of any kind, size, or condition into their flock. That spirit inspired our “Be a Duck” shirts. In a world that can be harsh, we could all use a little more duck energy.
