This month Moyer’s celebrates 30 years of hatching baby chicks at our Quakertown location
From a modest beginning of a 1200 square foot building and a year's hatch of 68,000 chicks in
1947, we have progressed to a building of over 10 times that size and a year's hatch of over 6V2
million for 1976.
But what makes us most proud is our growing family of pleased customers: Some of you have
recently joined us, others have been depending on us for many years. We thank each of you for
helping us reach this historical landmark.
