Add a breath of the wild North to your coop with our delightful Icelandic Chicks. Known as Islenska hænan, Haughænsni, or Landnámshænan back in their home country, or simply Icelandics in the US, these landrace chickens bring a bit of historic charm and diversity to your backyard flock.
Here are some facts about this breed before you decide to add them to your coop.
These unique birds hold a threatened status with the Livestock Conservancy and for centuries, have been valued by Icelandic farmers for their broodiness, ability to forage, and laying prowess. Expect a unique egg assortment with small, white to light tan eggs that add a touch of charm to any basket!
When you order from us, you're not just getting chicks, but a slice of Icelandic farming history. Each chick is shipped at 1 day old and comes unvaccinated to ensure a natural start. Please note that we have a minimum order of 6 chicks, but they don't have to be of the same breed.
For the sake of the little ones, we ship only on Mondays to prevent weekend PO delays. While we pack every chick for safe transport, we can't control handling once the box leaves the farm. We do our best to ensure extras IF they're available, but this isn't always possible.
At Cluck It All Farms, we take our responsibilities seriously. We're participants in the NPIP program and are A/I clean. Our NPIP certification is under Tina Hines, with participant number 31-1508.
While we restrict public access to our flocks for their safety, we'd be delighted to share photos or have a video chat with you. If local pick-up is your thing, we can arrange a meet-up at an off-site designated spot. Reach out anytime, and let's bring a piece of Iceland's farming legacy to your backyard!
