Hens gone wild

Over the years, I’ve hatched and raised hundreds of chickens, learning plenty of tricks and lessons along the way. Now, I’m excited to build a supportive, down-to-earth community for fellow feathered-friend lovers—where we can share our wins, our challenges, and everything in between.

I live on a lifestyle block where I mainly raise heritage hens (and roosters), selling them to other backyard and small-scale chicken keepers. I also run a little farm shop where I sell fresh eggs from my flock of layers.

I know firsthand how overwhelming and even discouraging it can be to search online for chicken-keeping advice—so much of it can feel confusing or condescending. My goal is to offer practical, real-world guidance on issues like worms, mites, lice, introducing new birds to an existing flock, and more.

All the stuff you wish you knew before calling the vet.

Let’s raise healthy, happy chickens—together.
