Leslie has the best chicken selection around! I check her chick list every spring, despite not having anymore room in my east bay yard. I’ve purchased chicks from her twice now and she is super knowledgeable, willingly answers all my questions and provides any new chick owners with all of the supplies needed to set up a brooder. She even responded to an email months later about a possible impacted crop in one of my hens. She takes the health of her birds very seriously (even having you change shoes upon arrival) which is so important when dealing with chicks! I will never get chicks from a feed store again- it’s worth it for me to spend a little more to ensure the health of my chicks, not to mention i get my pick of hard to find breeds. Couldn’t recommend Mill Valley chickens enough!

Leslie is knowledgeable and helpful. I’ve had two set of chickens 4 years apart. I like the selection options, even if crazy expensive. The chicks are heathly and eggs great.

My rating is based on my disappointment in her colored egg layers. Perhaps maybe it’s my own personal bad luck, but statistics are in my favor that it’s not just me. I got a ‘mill valley’ supposedly a colored (not brown or white) egg layer in 2020 whom laid brown eggs. There was a disclosure about how rarely a chicken can be a brown egg layer. Whomp whomp. Perhaps my bad luck. Or perhaps I was sold an Orpington. Either way I didn’t get colored eggs.

Fast forward to 2024 and I get an Easter egger, whom I was suspicious was not an Easter egger chick and commented such, but was assured it was, whom just started laying cream colored eggs. Definitely not blue or green. Cream.

perhaps it’s me with two differed chickens advertising colored eggs and I struck out both times. feels a little too unlikely statistically. Perhaps I paid premium but was given other breeds. I will never know. But I will not attempt to ever again pay a premium for a colored egg layer from here.

Leslie is great, a wealth of knowledge. The chickens are beautiful. We are excited to hand raise our pullets!

We bought five healthy and happy pullets from Mill Valley Chickens to add to our flock. The owner, Leslie, was very professional and helpful! It was easy to make an appointment. We are happy customers. Thank you MVC!

Leslie has so many resources and knowledge about chickens. She is a valuable asset to our community; and a joy to work with.

I bought a pullet from Leslie. She was incredibly helpful and shared her wealth of information. She was an absolute pleasure to do business with, and I hope to continue using Mill Valley Chickens as a resource for years to come.

I had a negative experience trying to get in touch with Leslie regarding purchasing a chicken coop. She neglected my several requests to schedule a phone call to discuss- it seems she only wants to handle customer service over email, and with less than average communication skills. Her messages were hastily written and did not answer the questions I had. I found the tone generally rude until finally she told me she wouldn’t work with me. It was confusing and exasperating trying to communicate with her. Pay attention to the negative reviews, they reflect my own experience. There are better places to go for your chicken needs.
