Tom Roebuck

Tom Roebuck is a chicken breeder in Unionville, VA, King George County and the Northern Neck near Fredericksburg. He has been raising heritage and dual-purpose chickens for over a decade and holds membership in the American Poultry Association. His flock is housed in spacious, predator-proof coops with daily free-ranging and custom feeding plans based on age and breed. He follows biosecurity best practices and schedules regular veterinary health screenings with age-appropriate vaccination and parasite control programs.

Birds receive early socialization through regular handling and seasonal farm tours for prospective stewards. This care philosophy supports robust health and friendly temperaments suited to backyard and small-scale farming. Tom’s farm roots trace back three generations of poultry keepers, reflecting a hands-on approach to disease prevention and sustainable practices. Educational workshops on flock management are offered each spring to share best practices with other local keepers.
