About Us

At Berthelot’s Farm & Lab, our passion for poultry began with a love for Silkie chickens. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a lifestyle, and over the years we developed a deep appreciation for breeding and raising these unique birds. As many poultry enthusiasts know, Silkies are among the most difficult chicken breeds to accurately sex at a young age, creating challenges for both breeders and buyers.

With more than 20 years of laboratory testing experience, we recognized an opportunity to combine our scientific expertise with our passion for poultry. Berthelot’s Farm & Lab was created to provide reliable, accurate, and affordable DNA sexing services for poultry breeders across the country.

Our mission is simple: help breeders make informed decisions sooner. By providing fast and dependable DNA sexing results, we enable poultry owners to identify the sex of their birds at an early age, reducing uncertainty and helping them market, plan, and manage their flocks more effectively.

As breeders ourselves, we understand the importance of accuracy, communication, and quick turnaround times. Every sample we receive is handled with the same care and attention we would expect for our own birds.

Whether you’re a hobbyist with a few cherished Silkies, other poultry varieties, or a breeder managing a larger flock, we’re proud to be your trusted partner in poultry DNA testing.
