The Girls
Colored Egg Layer Breeds & Guinea Hens

We fondly refer to our flock of chickens and Guinea Hens as “The Girls”. We have a wide variety of chicken breeds that lay, colored, speckled, or dark brown eggs that we sell in our gift shop. The Girls are hand raised from chicks and handled from a very young age so they are very docile, love people and will eat from your hand. They are allowed to roam freely (free range) around the farm during the day and sleep in their coops at night so safe from predators. We have 3 Guinea Hens (dark gray with white polka dots) that are the guardians of the flock. They will make lots of loud noises that send alarms to the flock if there is danger like a hawk, owl, or ground predator. The Girls are always waiting for treats and pets when you visit.
