About Us

Our Dozen website was hatched out of our own joy of having chickens and hatching our own eggs.  All the fun...gathering multiple colors and breeds of eggs, incubating them, then watching the hatches.  We would sit around the brooder and watch those fuzzy, cute little chicks for hours.

It wasn't long in our hatching journey until we went from small, borrowed incubators to a much larger cabinet incubator.  With that step, we were delightfully surprised at a better hatch rate.

I have enjoyed a flock of chickens for years, with different situations and breeds of chickens.  We learn from all of them and enjoy different breeds for different reasons.  The learning over the years has included not only chickens, but turkeys, Cornish Cross, ducks and Quail.

Along with hatching for ourselves, we started hatching to be able to provide chickens for local sales. It has been so fun to watch customers go home with birds they are excited about.
