The Buckeye chicken, appropriately developed in Ohio ("The Buckeye State") is a dual-purpose breed of chicken with a deep, lustrous red color of plumage. They have yellow legs and skin, and, thanks to their pea comb, are very cold-weather hardy. While Buckeyes adapt readily to a variety of living conditions, they do best under free-range conditions, or conditions where they have room to move around. Roosters weigh approximately nine pounds; hens weigh approximately six and a half pounds and lay medium-sized, brown eggs. They should not be confused with the similar-in-appearance Rhode Island Red.
Gods Blessing Farm is a working farm raising gourmet & heirloom vegetables, a small fruit orchard & vineyard.
We have a few different breeds of chickens, such as Belgian D'uccles, Buckeyes & Cornish so we usually have farm fresh eggs available from free range naturally fed chickens.
We raise Rare Heritage American Blue meat rabbits.
We are also breeding highly productive Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats that are tested on a DHI program.

We are a very small farm. We plant a little bit more each year. A passion is heritage breeds of poultry and heirloom plants. We are not organic yet but are working toward it. Both of us work full time off the farm so we need appointments for visitors at this time. Hopefully will make this full time for one of us soon! We sell many breeds of chickens, including endangered Buckeyes and Delawares. Also have eggs including our beautiful and delicious "Rainbow" eggs.
