🌱 About Our Started Pullets
At Roslin Poultry Ranch, we raise a limited number of started pullets (8 weeks old) each season for customers who prefer young, healthy, well-started birds—without the challenges of brooding day-old chicks or incubating hatching eggs.
Because we intentionally keep our grow-out space small, availability is seasonal and limited. This allows us to give each bird the proper care, space, and attention they deserve.
✅ All grow-outs are guaranteed female
✅ Raised to 8 weeks for easier flock integration
📅 2026 Availability Information
❌ No pre-orders or reservations for the 2026 season
Instead, we will raise small batches throughout the spring and summer and make pullets available as they reach 8 weeks of age.
As a courtesy, we post anticipated pullet availability dates on our Pullet Availability Page.
These dates are a general guide only and may change.
📌 All pullets are sold first come, first served
📍 Pickup only
⭐ Why Choose Started Pullets?
At 8 weeks old, our pullets are:
✔️ Hardy and well-started — ideal for new chicken keepers
✔️ Large enough to safely integrate into an existing flock
✔️ Past the fragile brooding stage — no supplemental heat or indoor setup needed
🧾 How Availability Works
Because:
-
Not all breeds are available in every batch
-
Male-to-female ratios vary by hatch
Each batch will include a unique combination of breeds.
We recommend reviewing our typical breed list ahead of time so you can plan a few preferred options.
