Rent a Chicken

Curious about chickens? With the Land's Sake Rent a Chicken program you can see for yourself how easy it is to raise these friendly birds, eat fresh eggs and give your kids a fun, educational experience.

The program:
Chicken rentals are typically for a two-week period. We deliver the chickens and everything you need to keep them healthy and happy including:

  • one chicken tractor (portable coop)
  • two chickens (Light Brahmas variety)
  • Organic feed
  • Bedding
  • Water and Feed trays
  • Instructions for chicken care

In exchange you receive fresh eggs daily, free lawn and garden work from our chickens and educational fun for your family and friends.

The fee is $100. We ask for a $50 security deposit that will be returned to you when we pick up our chickens and their tractor in their proper condition.

For more information or to schedule your chicken delivery, please contact Douglas Cook, Education Director at greenpower@landssake.org.

The benefits of chickens in your yard:

  • Fresh eggs: On average, our chickens lay one egg a day.
  • A healthy lawn: A chicken is happiest when it can scratch and eat bugs or grass. Naturally chickens will aerate your lawn and mix it beneficial fertilizer.
