Chicks are shipped USPS Priority Express and typically take 2 to 3 days in transit. Delivery is not guaranteed overnight.
Shipping live chicks carries risk. Once shipped, conditions during transit are outside of our control.
We do not offer refunds or replacements for chicks once they have been shipped.
Please review the full Terms of Service before ordering.
There is something deeply entertaining about a chicken that weighs barely more than a loaf of bread and still walks around like it owns the place.
That's an Ölandsk Dwarf.
These little Swedish chickens are busy, curious, quick on their feet, and very interested in whatever happens to be going on. They're the kind of birds that make you stop and watch the flock because somebody is always doing something.
And despite the name, “dwarf” doesn't mean delicate.
They're small because that's what they are supposed to be.
This listing is for unsexed, day-old Ölandsk Dwarf chicks from our breeding flock.
The Ölandsk Dwarf comes from the Swedish island of Öland, where these little chickens developed as farm birds rather than being selectively bred toward one standardized appearance.
Today's preserved population traces primarily to two strains, Petgärde and Asklunda.
Because they're a landrace, variation is part of the package.
You'll see different combinations of brown, wild color, black, and white, often with white feather tips. One bird may look completely different from the chicken standing beside it.
That's not something we're trying to breed out of them.
It's part of what makes them Ölandsk Dwarfs.
Don't let their size fool you.
These are busy little chickens. They like to forage, investigate things, and generally behave as though whatever you're doing is probably their business too.
If you want a tiny chicken that actually acts like a chicken, you've found one.
You'll receive unsexed, day-old Ölandsk Dwarf chicks from our breeding flock.
These chicks are sold straight run, which means we do not select males from females before shipping. You may receive pullets, cockerels, or a combination of both, and we cannot guarantee the sex or sex ratio of your order.
Photos on the listing are of our actual birds so you can see the type and variation present in our flock.
Clancy, our resident Ölandsk Dwarf rooster and Cluck It All Farms mascot, came from this breed too.
We can't promise you'll get another Clancy.
Depending on the day, you may consider that either a disappointment or a blessing.
Newly hatched chicks can rely on nutrients remaining from the absorbed yolk sac during their first days of life, which is what makes shipping day-old poultry possible.
We prepare our chicks carefully for the trip, but live-animal shipping comes with things we cannot control once that box leaves our hands, including postal routing, handling, weather, and delays.
Please only order shipped chicks if you're comfortable with those realities. We do not offer refunds or replace chicks that do not survive the journey.
Our flock participates in the National Poultry Improvement Plan and is A/I Clean under participant #31-1508, Tina Hines.
We're preservation-focused breeders.
With a landrace like the Ölandsk Dwarf, that means we're not trying to turn a naturally diverse population into rows of identical chickens. Healthy birds, useful traits, appropriate size, reproduction, flock behavior, and maintaining diversity matter more to us than producing one perfect feather pattern.
We don't offer public farm visits, but the birds shown in our photos are our birds. We're also happy to share flock photos and updates so you can see where your chicks came from.

When we have extras available, we may include bonus chicks with your order.
Occasionally that may mean an extra chick from another breed. If you have a preference about bonus chicks, leave us a note at checkout and we'll do our best to accommodate it.
Free chicken math.
You're welcome.
We begin preparing your hatch as soon as your order is confirmed. That includes reserving incubator space and scheduling your hatch around the advertised ship date.
Cancellations made more than three weeks before your scheduled ship date will receive a full refund.
Cancellations made within three weeks of your scheduled ship date are subject to a $10 non-refundable preparation fee because resources have already been committed to your hatch.
Please read our Hatching Eggs and Chicks Terms of Service Policy before ordering.
Purchasing hatching eggs or chicks means you agree to those terms.
We participate in the National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP), meaning our breeding birds are tested and monitored under state and federal disease-control standards. We take biosecurity seriously—because healthy chicks start long before hatch day.
