El Family Farm & Apiary LLC

El Family Farm & Apiary LLC raises Ayam Cemani chickens in Charlotte Court House, VA, in Southside Virginia near Lynchburg. Lord Utmost El has bred these birds for over a decade, maintaining membership in national poultry organizations and arranging annual health screenings with a trusted veterinarian.

The flock lives in spacious pens with daily pasture access, and the birds are socialized from an early age to ensure calm, robust stock. Feed consists of balanced grains and seasonal garden scraps from the farm’s vegetable beds. The apiary supplies raw honey that supplements the flock’s diet and supports overall health during colder months.

A small on-site incubator enables careful rotational hatching under monitored conditions. Several birds have placed at state fair exhibitions, reflecting the farm’s emphasis on temperament as well as feather quality. Local reviewers note the farm’s openness about its husbandry practices and the gentle nature of its flock.
