Welcome to the Meyer Hatchery Retail Store!

Our friendly and knowledgeable staff is ready to answer your poultry care questions and help you find the best products for your needs. Visit the FAQ section of our help desk for answers to our most common questions.

Poultry Orders and Pickup

You can pick up day-old chicks, broad-breasted turkey poults, hatching eggs, and started pullets in-store. All poultry must be reserved in advance either online or by phone. Chick orders are available during your two-day hatch window, while started pullets are available on your reserved day. Customers may also place supply orders ahead of time to make pickup quick and convenient. For added ease, our full-service drive-through allows you to collect poultry, feed, and supplies without leaving your vehicle. We will bring your order directly to you and load your feed.

Walk-In Availability

In addition to reserved orders, our retail store offers assorted female bin chicks and assorted started pullets as available. At certain times, we also offer female bantams, straight-run turkeys, broilers, and, once a year, ducks. Availability can be confirmed by contacting our Customer Support Team, and reservations for same-day pickup can be made beginning the day after hatch. Weekly maximums per household may apply.

Biosecurity Policy

For the health and safety of our flocks, no animals of any kind are permitted on-site, including poultry. To maintain a clean, state-certified facility, hatchery tours are not available. We thank you for your understanding. Learn more about biosecurity.
