Buckeye Chicks

Created just 40 minutes away from our headquarters here in Ohio, the Buckeye chicken breed is an American treasure that has been loved for decades. This robust bird is calm and easy to handle. Their peaceful temperate makes them great around other chicken breeds. You are very unlikely to have a mouse problem with this breed as they have been said to rival house cats with their skills. Roosters can be a bit loud and territorial at the beginning of the breeding season so that is something to keep in mind. The hens will lay an average of 180 to 260 large brown eggs each year. The adult males will reach their full weight of roughly 9 pounds, and females will reach around 6.5 pounds. The Buckeye is an APA-recognized breed and is shown in the American Class. These American favorites live 10 years or more on average. All of our Buckeye baby chicks for sale come with a live arrival guarantee. Valley Hatchery wants beginners and pros alike to enjoy the experience of raising chickens of their own.
