Meet Our Birds

We have 20 breeds of chickens, guinea fowl, and two pekin ducks.

One of our Australorps with serious side-eye. she lays an almost pink egg.

Henrietta aka Henny is an easter egger and was the first to lay a green egg. She will hide her eggs (very well, I might say) if she isn't feeling comfortable in the nest boxes. So, we do our best to keep her comfortable.

This is June. Our silver spangled appenzeller sptizhauben hen.

One of two bearded ladies. She is related to the Ameraucana breed of chickens and lays bluish eggs!

The red ladies are Rhode Island Reds. They were our first and are our most friendly. They lay your classic brown eggs.

Frosty is a Sapphire Gem. She lost the tips of her comb to extreme cold or pecking order bullying. She lays lighter brown eggs.

Our gold laced polish on the left and an olive egger on the right.

Mamma, our buff brahma. She just keeps filling out and she is such a gentle giant.

Phoenix: Our golden duckwing phoenix. Those beautiful long tail feathers can get between 2-5 feet long!

The obvious non-chickens here are our three guinea fowl. They are only semi-domesticated, excellent alarm systems, and hunt ticks.

Our first chicks hatched from our own eggs! Three eggs hatched (out of 5) and three hens decided to co-parent them. This is one of our original Rhode Island Red girls. She was the first hen to ditch the kids, leaving them to the other two after about 3 weeks.

Golden Spangled Appenzellar Spitzhauben rooster. He has an identical brother. These two rule the roost and make sure everyone stays in line.

Mamas and their brood. Teaching the chicks to forage.

Our pekin duck pair, and siapan jungle fowl hen. This Saipan is one of our favorite birds! She could be up to 2 feet tall. As many larger birds she will grow slowly.

Front view of our gold laced polish. She is a rebel.

Hens like to lay their eggs in a safe place, most often indicated by other hens laying there... They share better than our three year old.

This is Toppie, or as I call him Topperella. He was our first head rooster. As the other roosters continued to grow, and Toppie became more aggressive (he was on the fattening up track for the dinner table), the other roosters exiled him. He had an injured leg, but we let him stick around to see if he might heal on his own. He did and is just beginning to re-integrate into the flock. He is now much less aggressive. Our polish hen seems to be Toppie's #1 lady.

Young guinea fowl, gold laced wyandottes, and a buff orpington. It's their first time in an outside coop.

Our chicken journey

Summer of 2021 our oldest son and I came home with four Rhode Island Red chickens, after just three months on the farm. We built this coop as a family while I was 6.5 months pregnant. It’s a raised 4’ x 8’ with an attached 8’ x 4’ x 5.5’ run. A couple months later we came home with another (unanticipated) 10 pullets! Nine months pregnant at this point, I was not about to build another coop. So, we purchased a 6’ x 8’ coop and expanded the run so that all of the chickens could mingle and decide where to sleep on their own. Initially, they split up- the reds in the coop we built and the new chickens in the purchased coop. As temperatures dropped they all started sleeping in the larger, purchased coop (of course).

We have automatic pop doors that let the chickens into their run at daylight, and then as soon as we get up to check on them in the morning, we open the door to their run so they can forage freely. This is wonderful! It is so fun watching them explore and learn to come when you call them for treats. Until… they started crossing the road to hang out under some pine trees and forage around the construction site of a new home.

As we continued to envision and plan for the farm, we realized the many benefits to moving the entire chicken set-up to the other side of the house, further from the road. So, right before our first giant snow storm, with the help of some wonderful friends and family, we moved the full run and the purchased coop. The snow beat us before we could move the coop we built. We plan to move it in the spring and will try to use that as a brooding coop for our little chickies.

Here we are now, everyone is getting used to the set-up and as our hens continue to mature we are getting more eggs than ever.
