John Melhorn started out selling chicks for Dekalb in 1957 after serving our country in the US Navy. In 1960, as chicken houses began to grow in size, John saw the need to provide full time poultry catching crews for his customers. The crews initially consisted of mostly school kids who were capable of loading 5,000 birds a night into coop trucks in comparison to the current ability to load 120,000 cage pullets in a single day. In 1965, John purchased his first truck designated to haul live poultry. At this point in time, he also added poultry servicing. All the while, this entire operation was being run from John's home in Mount Joy, Pennsylvania. In 1984, John purchased a plot of land on Main Street in Mount Joy which is the current location of our facilities.
