Townline Hatchery in Zeeland MI will mail you day old chicks.
For super heavy egg production and laid back hens I highly recommend their Isa Browns.
They are the best production breed I have ever raised and I've had many over the years.
For that matter you can mail order day old chicks from any hatchery but Townline is local.

Real Araucana's are rare but Townline has Easter Eggers and John Blehm who raises Ameraucanas
is in the Frankenmuth area. For the rare breeds you mentioned you would most likely have to mail order them.

I don't know about "raise and release" turkeys.
That would be heavily regulated and not allowed by just anybody.
Contact the DNR for more info.
