The Poultry Pen

All our poultry get to free-range during the daylight hours. The bugs, grass, weeds, fruits and seeds they forage, in addition to the quality non-medicated commercial feed and scratch grains they have access to all the time, makes for some very happy and healthy birds! 

​

The Poultry Pen has gone through some major upgrades, both in infrastructure and bird numbers. The ‘Big Coop’ got a new white metal roof. This coop is home to our four French Toulouse Geese and the majority of our ducks. A few 'oldtimer' chickens also call this coop home.

​

We have two smaller coops, one of which has a totally enclosed run and is dedicated purely to our growing Silkie Bantam flock. These friendly little birds lay the cutest small cream-colored eggs. We have a mixed pen of buff, splash, blue and black. We also get some small/medium size eggs from crossing Silkies with a Lavender Araucana. A fun little side project. The third coop houses primarily chickens, but occasionally a duck or two. 

 

​Our chicken breeds include some Barnyard Mix Cockerels and Hens, along with some purebreds. Between everyone we will be getting everything from dark brown to light brown, white and green, and light to dark blue.

​

Both duck and geese eggs are white and are richer and more viscous than chicken eggs; wonderful for baking, as well as eating on their own, or in any dish you’d use a chicken egg.

​

In 2025 we added three heritage Turkey's to the flock. It looks like we got all Tom's (males) and so we will be looking to add some Hens in 2026.
