Welcome to The Hearty Hen House
Hobby Farming at its finest!
Bunnies are the best! They are soft and have the sweetest faces! My experience with bunnies began several winters ago when three rabbits came to visit and stayed. They shared grain with the chickens and found a barn full of hay! What could be better?
We have a black Labrador Retriever. I love her. She is my good friend and trusted companion. She tolerates my faults (I apparently don’t provide nearly enough treats) and I tolerate her’s ( incessant nagging to play fetch just one more time!!! Please!) Contrary to most Labradors, she tends to be picky about the food she eats, if it’s not people food. Although I don’t share my meals with her, she has been know to help herself if something is left a little too close to the edge of the counter. Cookies, butter, pork chops…
(Calcium Carbonate)
Calcium is an integral part of a laying hen’s diet. They require calcium for their bones and for the egg shells they create.
What would YOU do with this?
It’s all in your perspective.Some would think this is a mess, an eyesore, a hazard. Others would just think tetanus! I rescued this tangled mess of rusted barbed wire and transformed it into a beautiful home decoration for my nephew’s girlfriend. I hope she loves it!
I started my hobby farming with chickens. There is no better way to start your journey with hobby farming and healthy living than with chickens! Chickens are animated and fun to watch. They can be very pretty, when not molting, they are not difficult to keep, AND they give back. That incredible edible egg! Just look at the size of the egg I got this last summer! Yes, it was a double yolker! I was hoping for three yolks, but it was not to be.
