Introducing the Buckeye, a breed that combines charm, practicality, and a rich American heritage. With their vibrant deep red plumage and calm, sociable nature, Buckeyes are a delightful addition to any flock. Known for their friendly disposition, these birds are not shy about following you around the yard, making them a joy to raise, whether you’re a seasoned poultry keeper or just starting your backyard flock.

The Buckeye holds a special place in American poultry history, having been developed by Nettie Metcalf in Warren, Ohio—the only chicken breed in the U.S. created entirely by a woman. This breed’s deep connection to Ohio, near our Purely Poultry headquarters, adds to its special status. Buckeyes are a dual-purpose breed, known for their robust body structure, which includes broad backs, meaty thighs, and full breasts, making them ideal for both meat and egg production. Their distinctive pea comb helps them thrive in colder climates, where frostbite can be a concern with other breeds.

Buckeyes are not only productive but also highly adaptable. Hens lay between 180 and 260 large brown eggs annually, providing a steady supply of fresh eggs for your household. Roosters can grow up to 9 pounds, with hens averaging around 6.5 pounds, giving them a solid, sturdy frame that’s perfect for those looking for a reliable dual-purpose bird. These chickens are also excellent hunters, known for their ability to help control rodents, a unique trait that’s been compared to that of a house cat.

One of the standout features of the Buckeye is their friendly, peaceful temperament. They integrate well into mixed flocks, making them an excellent choice for families or for those raising a variety of breeds. While roosters can exhibit territorial behavior during breeding season, their overall demeanor remains calm and manageable. And with their impressive longevity, often living 10 years or more, Buckeyes offer years of companionship and productivity.

At Purely Poultry, we take pride in offering healthy, well-raised Buckeye chicks, ensuring you get a strong start with this exceptional breed. As a breed recognized by the American Poultry Association in the American Class, Buckeyes offer both historical significance and practical benefits, making them a standout addition to any backyard or homestead.

If you’re looking for a breed that blends history, personality, and practicality, Buckeyes are the perfect choice. Explore our selection today and bring home the Buckeye’s unique charm and versatility to your flock!
