About Roslin Poultry Ranch
Welcome to Roslin Poultry Ranch, where a passion for chickens has grown into a business built around healthy flocks, thoughtful breeding, practical poultry care, and education.
I'm Donna Weekes, the owner of Roslin Poultry Ranch. What began as a personal interest in keeping backyard chickens has grown into years of hands-on experience raising, breeding, hatching, and caring for poultry. Along the way, I've learned that keeping chickens is about much more than collecting eggs. It's about understanding your flock, recognizing problems early, making informed decisions, and creating an environment where your birds can thrive.
And I'm still learning every day.
Our Poultry
At Roslin Poultry Ranch, we offer hatching eggs, day-old chicks, and started pullets for backyard chicken keepers, families, hobby farmers, and homesteaders.
Our breeding program focuses on developing and preserving interesting and unique poultry lines, with particular attention to egg colour, genetics, and variety. We work with breeds and crosses including Welsummers, Whiting True Blue, Copper Marans, Olive Eggers, Coastal Eggers, Rustic Eggers, and our developing Mosaic Egger line.
Our goal isn't simply to produce chickens. We enjoy the process of building breeding lines, observing how genetics influence egg colour and appearance, and continually refining our flock for the characteristics we want to carry forward.
Chick' N Wellness Shop
Caring for chickens also means being prepared for the everyday health challenges that can come with keeping a flock.
Through our Chick' N Wellness Shop, we offer a selection of poultry-care products, supplements, treatments, and practical supplies that we use, recommend, or have carefully selected for chicken keepers.
Our approach is simple: understand what your chickens need, use products thoughtfully, and avoid treating problems blindly.
Education Is at the Heart of What We Do
One of the most important parts of Roslin Poultry Ranch is education.
Through our Chicken Topics library, workshops, guides, and one-on-one consultations, we share practical information based on hands-on experience, research, and the lessons we've learned from raising our own flocks.
Topics range from everyday flock management and nutrition to parasites, illness prevention, coop care, breeding, and emergency preparedness.
Our goal isn't to tell chicken keepers that there is only one right way to raise chickens. It's to give you the information you need to understand your options and make informed decisions for your own flock.
From Our Flock to Yours
Whether you're collecting your first egg, bringing home your first chicks, adding started pullets to an existing flock, or developing your own breeding program, we're here to share what we've learned along the way.
Roslin Poultry Ranch has grown from a backyard chicken journey into a place where poultry, education, breeding, and a genuine love for chickens come together.
I'm grateful to everyone who has followed our journey, purchased from us, attended a workshop, read one of our articles, or simply stopped by to learn something new.
There is always another chicken to hatch, another egg colour to discover, another question to research, and something new to learn.
Thank you for being part of the journey.
