Peninsula Poultry Breeders is a collaborative network of local farmers who are committed to providing quality live poultry for the home and small commercial market in Western Washington State. We offer a sustainable, humane alternative to corporate-run hatcheries. We breed to a standard of excellence that includes vigorous health, high productivity, breed conformation, stable temperaments and true dual purpose. We offer excellent customer support, especially to new poultry owners, and guarantee the health of our birds at purchase. We follow humane breeding and hatching principles and house our birds in natural living conditions where they can be outdoors in a flock setting, hunt for bugs, dust bathe, and graze on pasture.

LOCAL
Our farms are all located on Washington State's Olympic Peninsula, and can be viewed when picking up your chicks.

SUSTAINABLE
Our farming practices strive for true sustainability and reflect our passion for being part of a truly local food system.

HUMANE
We believe all chicks should have a chance to grow, so unlike hatcheries we don't cull male chicks at hatch.
