A Family Owned Hatchery
Our Story
About Us
Happy Feet Hatchery is located in beautiful Eustis, Florida, where we specialize in breeding and hatching high-quality large fowl chicken breeds. Our passion is helping backyard chicken keepers build healthy, beautiful flocks by offering thoughtfully selected breeds and carefully raised birds.
We offer farm fresh eggs, hatching eggs, and baby chicks during our peak season, which typically runs from late February through September. Each year, we relaunch ordering around the end of February or beginning of March. As the season progresses, a wait list naturally forms. Pickups are scheduled by appointment once orders are ready, allowing us to keep the process smooth, efficient and organized for both our customers and our farm.
From October through January, we pause hatching operations during molting/off-season so our birds can rest and reset—ensuring strong, productive flocks for the upcoming year.
We maintain a rotating selection of large fowl chicken breeds, each chosen for something special—whether that’s excellent egg production, beautiful egg color, unique appearance, or flock personality. To keep our offerings fresh and exciting, we periodically retire and introduce new breeds, so what you see on our website is always subject to change. There’s almost always something EGGciting happening behind the scenes.
Every breed we offer is carefully selected to appeal to a wide range of chicken keepers—from those focused on productivity to those looking to add color and variety to their egg basket or beauty to their flock. We spend a great deal of time researching and working with trusted, reputable breeders to build and improve our breeding program.
Our operation is solely rooted right here on our property — meaning we only hatch and sell from our own flocks. At times carefully selected hatching eggs are brought in to help expand and strengthen our own breeding programs. We do not bring live birds onto the farm. This approach allows us to maintain the health, consistency, and quality of our flocks—so you can feel confident about adding ours to yours.
At Happy Feet Hatchery, we’re proud to do things thoughtfully and intentionally, always with the well-being of our birds—and our customers’ flocks—at the forefront.
