Join us October 18th at 9AM for The Profitable Layer Workshop!Every year people start keeping chickens because they're fun and eggs are expensive but just as many give up when their dream birds turn into nightmares and eggs are still expensive. We want to change that. We've partnered with local urban producer Jared who has a proven back yard model.
In this workshop Jared shares his best practices for keeping a flock that’s both enjoyable and financially rewarding.
For less than the productive value of one good laying hen
You will learn:
* Which two hen breeds consistently lay 300+ eggs per year (and are a joy to keep).
* Good stewardship practices from the brooder to culling.
* The role positive epigenetics plays in your flock’s success.
* How to source affordable, high-quality feed (and even get it delivered).
* Practical ways to prevent and treat injuries and illness.
We’ll break down the daily maintenance costs of back yard egg production:
Initial cost of a chick: $6.00
Feed for 16 weeks until laying: $3.70–$7.00
Daily feed costs: about $0.10 per bird
At $5.00 per dozen, your margin is $0.31 per egg
A healthy hen lays about 6 eggs per week meaning your birds can truly pay for themselves.
Whether you are brand new to chickens or looking to make your current flock more sustainable, this workshop gives you the tools to make egg layers a productive (and profitable) part of your life.
If you eat a lot of eggs this class is for you.
If you want to sell eggs this class is for you.

These chickens love living in town, in the heat or the cold and don't want to fly away to fly away.
