About Knight Hatchery

Knight Hatchery is an independently run hatchery, located in Chichester, West Sussex. Specialising in the hatching of quails, chickens and ducks. With a proud average hatch rate of 70%, this is credited to the quality of care provided to each individual new-born. Unlike other industrial style hatcheries, I provide pet quality animals. Any animals deemed as imperfect, are available for adoption.

Caring For Your Hatchlings

Important Information - PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING YOUR ORDER:

​

Most of our hatchlings WILL REQUIRE A HEAT SOURCE once they arrive home. This should be an electric heat plate or heat lamp. (Household heating, electric blankets or hot water bottles are NOT a sufficient source of heat). 

​

Heat lamp sets are available to purchase in the 'SHOP' section of our website.

​

Please ensure you have all the necessary equipment needed to raise your hatchlings BEFORE placing your order.

​

We have provided downloadable and printable information packs below to help support our customers, these are basic and we advise you to do your own research and not rely solely on the information provided in these packs:
