LOOKING FOR 2025 BABY "HOODOO SURVIVOR" CHICKS?
We're not yet selling 2025 chicks. WHY? Many, if not all, commercial hatcheries have been vaccinating their hatching eggs "in ovo". This "vaccination" causes them to lay sterile eggs as adults This results in a hatch rate, in their progeny, of about 20% rather than the "normal" 85% or better. So, the commercial store-bought chicks you have may be sterile. You'll get eggs, but few - if any - babies.
So, last year, some of our 2024 heritage layers could be traced back to these. This meant that we'd incubate 100 eggs, and maybe wind up with only 20 chicks. This about broke our bank! Think about it - if you rec'd 2 dozen chicks from us last year, nearly ONE HUNDRED eggs had to be destroyed to get you those 24. That was both economically unsound and emotionally heartbreaking.
This year, we need a little more time to prove that our surviving chicks - now our parent stock - will successfully raise HOODOO SURVIVOR chicks for your family, for years to come.
Some of our next-generation HOODOO SURVIVOR hens got broody as early as mid-January, 2025 AND successfully raised baby chicks! As of May, 2025, we are closely monitoring the juveniles that successfully hatched this year. We hope to be able to sell HOODOO SURVIVOR chicks (straight run, $8 each), around fall of 2025, to be laying for YOU this winter!

GENESIS 41:26 - Preparedness in the Bible
Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one and the same. God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do. 26 The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are seven years; it is one and the same dream. 27 The seven lean, ugly cows that came up afterward are seven years, and so are the seven worthless heads of grain scorched by the east wind: They are seven years of famine.
28 “It is just as I said to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do. 29 Seven years of great abundance are coming throughout the land of Egypt, 30 but seven years of famine will follow them. Then all the abundance in Egypt will be forgotten, and the famine will ravage the land. 31 The abundance in the land will not be remembered, because the famine that follows it will be so severe. 32 The reason the dream was given to Pharaoh in two forms is that the matter has been firmly decided by God, and God will do it soon.
