About us:

Darwalla is a family-owned company who has been growing poultry in QLD for almost 90 years.  Commissioned in February 2018, our hatchery comprises specialty hatchery equipment, robotic automation and a multitude of other equipment to hatch & dispatch over 1 million fluffy chicks every week.
