Alchemist Farm

Beautiful chicks, extremely well packaged, excellent customer service. The first of our spring chicks from them, a stunning Welsummer, started laying gorgeous dark brown speckled eggs two days ago. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Franchesca was very responsive throughout the whole process and readily available to answer all my questions. I love their variety of rare and interesting breeds as well as their commitment to humane practices. I purchased 3 moss egger chicks & Franchesca included an extra which was very nice. They were shipped to us from Cali all the way to S. Florida & arrived alive, but two were weakened by the journey. Sadly, those two ultimately passed away the following day. Thankfully, the remaining two are healthy & strong as can be. When working with live animals, especially during these times, sometimes things don't always work out as expected & that's ok. It's all part of the journey. Good thing the extra chick was included because we have two to raise and love. I have heard only wonderful things about Alchemist Farm & am glad I went with them. I recommend & will order from them again in the future.

I highly recommend Alchemist Farms! Last winter I ordered chicks for spring, and I received them—all healthy and safe—as scheduled in April. I’m a first-time chicken owner, and Franchesca has been super helpful throughout this process—from choosing breeds to caring for them as chicks, and beyond. It was important to me that Alchemist Farms is a humane hatchery, and their approach to chickens and the environment makes sense to me, so it’s been great to support them and spread the word. I’m so happy I found Alchemist Farms!

Alchemist farm is regal. Period. I've raised birds as a kid and these have been by far the healthiest chicks I've ever encountered. I only ordered 4 Belfielder gals this past May with an August expected delivery date and I almost considered ordering elsewhere due to my impatience, however I'm so glad we waited for our girls! They are well worth the wait!. All 4 arrived here alive and thriving and not to mention the careful/strategic packaging they arrived in. Destination: (Northern to Southern CA). The breed so far has lived up to their gentle docile sweet selfs. We love them! Our Great Danes love them too and the chicks have a blast playing with them! Thank you Francesca and the team at Alchemist Farm! Keep up the good work! ❤Many blessings to you all.

I ordered chicks in March right before the mailing delays due to covid 19... one chick didn't make it because of post office issues, but Francesca was more then helpful and compassionate about it and refunded my loss. Because I ordered straight run I did get 50% roosters. I love them so much that next year I have to order more so I have enough hens for all my boys! They are to beautiful to get rid of. I have 7 hatchery birds as well. The difference in breeding stock is amazing. She sold me! I don't think I'm ever going to buy birds from anyone else. There the best!
