Baby chick season is just around the corner! Thinking about starting your own flock? Take this extended version of our popular Chicken & Egg class and get all your chicken questions answered.
Learn about local permit requirements, examine feed options, chat about coops, and find out what chicken is right for you! Farm staff will also discuss fertilized eggs, demonstrate candling, and explain the incubation process. Before departing, take a hike over to the Blandford Farm so you can meet our bantam chickens and checkout their setup.
