Asagi Hatchery - Ranches Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

When I am off or when I take off for doctor's appointment on either Mondays or Tuesdays and in the area of Kalihi, I make a stop here to grab eggs, the very special kine eggs we call "Balut" will not for me but for my momma & siblings, they love this stuff! Why Mondays and Tuesdays? due to the size of balut are small, don't want to eat them when they get too big. haha. Besides the Baluts, Asagi Hatchery got seeds and citrus fruit trees too, I also grab a few bag of vegtable seeds for my mom and a bag of fresh Rau Ram ($2.) to eat with the balut. The citrus fruit trees are $52. & up and they are from nursery on the Big Island. I really want a Yuzu lemon tree but they are all sold out. I am on the wait list for a Yuzu tree. ((Excited for a Yuzu, Can't wait!)) Asagi been hatching chicks for farms and back yard since 1935, range of chicken raising & food growing supplies also available, & besides the Balut, fresh eggs from Peterson's farm here too. During Covid times, Asagi is opened Monday-Friday from 9-3, curbside pick up only, cash or credit cards only. There are about 4 parking stalls in front of shop. Be careful when you turn in to Asagi, very small road shared with other businesses . Ok now, who wants BALUT? Let's goooo!! Get your salt & pepper ready, slurp.... slurp ....slurp! **Note., Prices are high for these delicacy, but best to get them by the tray for discount. read more

Asagi Hatchery - Baby chick and our son - Ranches Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I've only ever ordered chicks from the mainland since 2008. This year I ordered from the ladies at Asagi Hatchery and I'm so impressed! In the past, I would always find a chick or two that looked a bit sorry and they just didn't thrive - usually dying within a day or two. The chicks I've received from Asagi Hatchery are beautiful! They are all lively plump little girls. It's been three days since I picked them up with not one chick is failing. I'm sorry I didn't order from them sooner! Even though 2025 has been crazy with so many folks wanting to buy chicks for their backyards because of the commercial egg industry suffering from the avian flu, the ladies at Asagi have been patient, kind, and helpful. I'm buying local from now on! (PS: I live in North Kohala, not San Francisco. Don't know how Yelp put me there!) read more

Such an awesome family business. We wanted laying hens and just didn't know where to start. We called Asagi hatchery and everything was easy peasy! We told them what we generally were looking for in a hen and they suggested ISA Brown layers ( for our situation). They gave us all the advice we were looking for and set us with all the supplies we needed to get started with raising chicks. We picked up our chicks and starter kit at the same day. Knowledgeable and friendly! read more

Asagi Hatchery - Golden Comets at 6 weeks old! - Ranches Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Attempted to buy Balut here for a whole week. But with no success, at first I made the drive there and got turned away because there is a shortage on them. that's cool. It was my bad I didn't call ahead or even think there would be a shortage since we never had that problem before. I'm not upset that I can't get them. But I am highly annoyed that they keep giving me the run arounds. They said they will call me in 30 mins to let me know if they have enough. But I got no calls and same answer for 2 days! If they just gave me a call and said "sorry, we don't have enough in stock for you" or just gave me a damn call back like they said they would. I would have been fine. If you're trying to buy some. Don't even bother! You won't get a damn chance to buy any. Making the drive there would be very pointless. Even a call is pointless already. read more

I was referred to this place by a friend who has gotten chicks from them before. We are new to this chicken raising thing as the Mama Hen that initially layed 10 eggs now have only 7 surviving chicks and now Mama Hen is nowhere to be found. So I came here to get chicken wire, stakes and Starter Feed for almost $80. The 25 feet of wire cost $30. Each stake cost $10 and I got four of them. And the Starter Feed cost a little over $6 for a 5 lb bag. Maxie was really nice and helpful, along with her mom but I didn't catch her name. They were both nice and gave me great advice. I'll definitely come here again for any chicken needs and advice! read more

Tweet Tweet....Tweetly-Tweet I have always loved animals my whole life, and chickens was always that typical Filipino Pet\side Business\Food. But my chickens were always just pets. I have been coming to Asagi Hatchery since I was 8 Years old to buy some baby chicks. They actually sell a bunch of chicken feed, medicine and farming supplies here. I have also seen some plants being sold here too. They also sell Balut or chicken fetuses that are still growing. They start selling the eggs at any age. They pretty must start incubating the eggs and you can buy the eggs at the stage you want to eat them at. If they aren't sold in time then they hatch and you can buy the chick. Not sure what happens if the chick isn't sold, but I am pretty sure they always sell out. Every time I call for new chicks, I am put on a waiting list a month away. The ladies who work there are always so nice, sweet, and helpful. I have been there many times to pick up baby chicks to be raised for eggs. I have always had my pullets; they are 100% on sexing chicks for me. I have recently placed another order because they are now selling the Easter egg laying chickens that pay eggs from brown, green, pink and blue. I hope I get the ones that lay pretty colored eggs. I am so excited. I recently picked up a couple baby chicks (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/asagi-hatchery-honolulu?select=QeX5popPMC0UJwgKEkVtew#QeX5popPMC0UJwgKEkVtew) and they grew quick and healthy. They are so cute and fluffy!!!!! I can;t wait to get my new chicks. If you want to get fresh eggs daily, this is the place to buy healthy chicks. They always are hardy chicks and grow big and healthy. I can't wait to be picking up my eggs every morning read more

My go-to for Balut. Whether over the phone or in person, They are always so nice and friendly! Since the pandemic, you have to wait outside for someone to come out. There's a phone number posted for you to call but someone usually comes right out as soon as I get out of the car. And while I'm waiting for them to come back out with my order, I usually look over all the seeds they have for sale. So many different vegetables and trees! read more

Awesome customer service. They were able to put me on a waitlist for the chick breeds I was looking for (silkie and silver laced Wyandotte). They got back to me like they said they would and we scheduled a time for pickup. Now my chicks are almost ready to lay eggs! read more

We always come to Asagi's for organic feed for our ducks. There are other places that sell organic feed, but ive had bad expiences with so many bugs, so I only buy from Asagis. It sounds weird...but our ducks' poop doesnt smell as stink and its easier to clean up (wash down) then if we buy organic instead of non-organic. We also love the local fruit trees they have in stock. We bought a cinnamon tree, and other rare trees there. The packets of seeds are unusual and rare, and we grew our own veggies for quite a while. The eggs are really good too. You can't get it fresher then directly from the hatchery. We always buy our baby chicks from there and have a fresh source of eggs. The staff are experts on eggs and are so nice! It's nice that this local family owned company is still going strong! read more

About four years ago I met Glen Shinsato (Shinsato's Farm Kahaluu), Glen runs a all natural hog/rabbit farm (now Google Glen Shinsato and tell me who you see smiling back at ya! Go on, please lol), later, Chef Doug Kocol (Dougie Fresh! First chef ever I knew to preach Farm to Table, and Sustainability! Now of Old Major, Denver Co.), then I couldn't get grass to grow under my lychee (that's how I met Sonya! Aloha Chingu!). What to do with this eyesore in my back yard? I grew up on a farm, farm to table seemed an odd concept to me, as this was basically all I knew growing up. An idea came to me, why not chickens? I mean, why not? Then (and this was one of those life changing moments), I met Maxine. Maxine is the granddaughter of the founder of Asagi Hatchery (est. 1935), and she knows her chickens, but not only that, she knows sustainability. I went to Asagi, just to look for hens. I found a world of knowledge wrapped in one person. She not only sold me my birds, but taught me how to care for them, train them, and use them to make my yard a better habitat. Things like soil regeneration, using organic soil in the bottom of my coup, and rotating it every two to three months as a natural fertilizer for my plants. Free ranging, to keep the hens in harmony, and pest control in my grass. Organic pest control for the coup that makes the smell nonexistent! Even that chickens love oyster shells? High in calcium, good for shell density, and grit. Chickens have no teeth, so grit i.e. small stones, or oyster shells provide a way to digest/soften foods. Who knew? Asagi is run by Maxine and her mom, it's a mother/daughter operation. They sell all you'll need to start your own backyard egg farm. They also hatch, quarterly and you can select the type of birds you desire. Order ahead to insure you get the type you want. They have a "Big Book of Chickens" for you to look through, in case you have no idea how to begin. There is a simpler life, a harmony with nature. These things bring internal happiness. They really do. Today, I picked up two white silkies, and a sebright? I had never heard of a sebright, or that it's not spelled Sea-bright? Fresh eggs really are the best, and having chickens reminds me of home, and youth, sweet youth. Asagi and Maxine are truly Aloha read more

IN SHORT, SHORT, SHORT - They sell: fertilized eggs for hatching, balut, young chicks, water/feed dishes for chickens, chicken feed & urban garden/small farm supplies - Open Mon - Fri (M-TR, 8 AM-5 PM, F, 9 AM-2 PM), occasionally open on Sat (call to find out) - Parking available in front of store - Cash & major credit cards accepted - Very friendly kama'aina business, been open since 1935 The only place I know of in Honolulu where you can buy balut (a boiled, fertilized egg that has a nearly developed embryo in it)! The Asagi 'ohana still owns and runs this joint --- three generations and running, with the fourth generation (great-grandchildren) of the founder hanging around the store/hatchery when they're not in school. They've been hatching eggs since 1935 and have managed to stay in business by embracing this one concept: diversification. They started out hatching eggs to sell to the general public, and still do, but also sell - chicken feed (regular & organic), automatic watering systems, feed dishes, etc. - animal traps (various sizes available) - veggie/fruit/herb seeds - organic fertilizer - eco-friendly cleaning products - books on raising chickens, building coops, sustainable ag, etc. They also sell eggs that are about to hatch (good for elementary schools that use these as science projects). If you're interested in heritage breeds such as Ameraucana, Buff Orpingtons, and the like, you can inquire about placing a special order for these. I think there might be a minimum amount you'd have to buy. The Asagi 'ohana are extremely down-to-earth, hospitable, and sweet people to deal with. Very, very knowledgeable about how to care for and raise chickens, different breeds, what to feed them, etc. Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/asagihatchery?v=wall Twitter: http://twitter.com/asagihatchery read more

The ladies who run the family business at Asagi are super nice. Lately there seems to have been a resurgence towards growing-your-own and going back to the old ways of keeping your own chickens for eggs is super cheap to do. When I got my first chickens the lady on the phone said they raised their price from $4.25 per chick.. I was expecting like $10... She said its now $4.75! Hahahaha Anyways you can get some chickens that will lay you an egg a day from Asagi, and the feed too. They also sell balut and seeds of change seed packets. There is a waiting list to get regular pullets, and a special list if you want the Araucanas or other specialty birds. read more

My baby chicks arrived this morning at the post office! The chicks are all very healthy & happy- the hatchery even put in two extra chicks for free! The staff at Asagi was very professional and conveyed plenty of Aloha. You can tell that they genuinely care about their chickens and their customers. If only we could find customer service like that at more businesses! The next time I order baby chicks, I will definitely go through Asagi Hatchery... what a wonderful business! P.S. If you are looking for a wide variety of specialty chicken breeds, their specialty hatches (in spring) are sure to please. read more

This family owned business has been around for a long time and for good reason. They are exceptionally friendly, professional and knowledgable. I can go there and "talk story" with them for a long time. They usually have a wait list for their chicks. Specialty breeds are a special order---ask them via email or phone for the list---they will email it to you in a timely manner. I placed my name on the waitlist for my brown layers (6)---but wasn't able to take all 6 (just 3), and they were very accommodating about it. Just let them know that you are unable to take the chicks early on or if you have to modify your order. They sell feed, pine shavings, feed supplies, seeds for your garden, books, eggs, herbs, etc. read more
