Hi, my name is Amanda and I am the person behind Chloe’s Poultry.
I grew up in the bushy little town of St Andrews on acreage with my family. I always had a passion for animals and had many pets, including horses and of course we had a large pen of chickens.
I was always the kid who brought home any animal I could find and I’m sure I drove my parents crazy at times.
When I was 18, I got my very own first dog, and named her Chloe. She was a little brindle staffy who was a crazy ball of energy. She came everywhere with me and had so many adventures, and this is how Chloe's poultry got its name - after my little dog.
I rode competitively for many years and later studied at TAFE and have a diploma of applied science in equine management and farming.
I was lucky enough to travel around Australia working at the thoroughbred yearling sales.
Later, I managed a riding school and then managed a Horseland store after working with the franchise for many years.
I always had chickens at home, and once I became a Mum, I started breeding them as a bit of a hobby so I could earn a little bit of income, but stay at home with my children.
That was 16 years ago now, and over the years, I have expanded and Chloe’s Poultry has now turned into a very successful and professional boutique business.
In 2018 I was selected to be a Green Valley Grains brand ambassador. This was an amazing opportunity for me and I have enjoyed learning more about animal nutrition and working with a fantastic team of super experienced people and a wonderful business.
Fast forward to now, and we are a family with six children, living in the beautiful rolling hills of Narre Warren North on a farm. Its always busy here and of course there’s plenty of animals.
As well as all the chickens, we have guinea pigs, rabbits, budgies, a cockatiel, dogs, horses, ponies, sheep and cattle.
Not only do we supply amazing hatching eggs and quality chicks, we also supply hand made brooder boxes.
We have two different ranges of birds, which are pure breed heritage birds, and our ‘just for fun range’, which we love for their individuality and stunning egg colours.
We take a lot of pride in the heath, welfare and management of our birds and have a great set up in which they all call home.
Theres a lot of information on our webpage, which includes photos of our birds, the breeds we keep and plenty more.
*****************************************************************************************
Our yearly schedule of operations are as follows:
June 1st, 2025 - orders will open for pure breed heritage and just for fun rainbow range fertile hatching eggs.
July 7th, 2024 - Supply of eggs will begin - post and pick up.
July 8th, 2024 - Supply of hatchlings will begin - pick up only.
July to April - We will be busy filling all the hatching egg pre-orders, taking new orders and also hatching chicks weekly.
You can purchase eggs, unsexed chicks, pullet chicks, off heat chicks and pen ready pullets easily during this time in the season as this is when fertility is at its best and supply is high.
During March we stop selling hatching eggs, as fertility can drop, however we continue to hatch weekly
During May and June, most of our birds are not laying. We have a much more limited supply of chicks during this time, however we hatch all year round.

We breed as close to the current poultry standard as possible, with the birds that we have. They are all a work in progress and we are always improving, and are therefore sold as excellent backyard quality. A healthy and strong bird is the first and foremost of our selection criteria, and we only breed from mature hens, who have stood the test of time and are proven breeders of quality chicks. Temperament is also an important factor, as we choose birds with great personality – even the males! This passes down the lines, to create healthy, resilient and great natured birds for you to enjoy.

By choosing Chloe’s, you can rest assured that the welfare of our birds is paramount. We pride ourselves on a very professional set up, including custom built large steel frame pens with ample run space. Not only are our birds are safe from predators but they are also safe from the stress of predators, both on the ground and overhead. Our pens are all fully roofed in both iron and galvanised mesh, and the floors have a dug in mesh barrier. There’s a cozy, yet well ventilated covered section at the rear of the pen and a bright open mesh sided area at the front. Our birds are checked a number of times a day and have a constant supply of fresh, clean water and premium feed. Each pen even has its own custom built swing for the birds to enjoy. In extreme weather conditions, our birds are kept as comfortable as possible. During the heat of Summer, iced water is provided, as well as fruity ice treats and the deep mulch is wet down. There is also plenty of shade and shelter to protect them from the elements. They are all free to scratch around, dust bathe, lay in the sun and enjoy life in a happy, low stress, comfortable environment.
All of our birds are routinely de-wormed and treated for mite prevention. All birds we sell are also up to date with any required treatments, appropriate to their age.
