Keeping chickens on your ranch not only adds charm but also provides a sustainable source of fresh eggs. From egg color variations to different hen breeds, there’s so much to discover. Roosters, like Waylon, play a critical role in flock dynamics. They protect, guide, and add a vibrant personality to the ranch. Learn about the differences between heritage breeds and hybrid chickens, which can affect egg production and overall flock health. Daily care, including proper feeding, sanitation, and shelter, is essential for healthy hens and roosters. Engage with fellow ranch enthusiasts and share tips through forums dedicated to country life and farm-fresh living! Get insights on the best practices and engage with the community to enhance your ranching experience!

Our Backyard Flock

A couple months ago we walked into tractor supply and grabbed the last three ducks in stock. This new adventure has been so fun but also so challenging We had to had a pond (okay we didn’t HAVE to but we had the supplies already) and to make a good eco system we had to add turtles and fish.
