Considering Getting a Pet Chicken or Four


I’m getting closer to finally checking out my town’s ordinances on pets and whether I can get away with having backyard chickens. More on underground chicken movements here, though the site hasn’t been updated in a while. I wasn’t sold on the idea until I did more reading about the nutrients packed into fresh eggs. They certainly didn’t hurt me when I was growing up. And I’d love for my kids to tend to their own birds. I had ducks for a while and loved taking care of them. I’ve seen several sites I like, but My Pet Chicken is my new favorite. Check out this archive story in Backyard Poultry Magazine about the Backyard Chicken Coop Tour in Madison, Wis., last summer.

  1. Hey there Virtual Farmgirl! I’m the owner of My Pet Chicken and I just came across your site. How cool! Thanks for the nod. I wanted to let you & your audience know there’s been a major advancement in the world of pet chickens. Normally, hatcheries selling baby chicks require a minimum order of 25 because the baby chicks need one another’s body heat to survive shipping – quite prohibitive if you just want a few! We’ve partnered with a company that has innovated a brand new shipping method allowing just three baby chicks to be shipped at a time. We currently have over 50 breeds for sale on our site and customers can cherry pick the ones they want.As you can tell, we’re super excited about this. We think this advancement will make all the difference to people who’ve always wanted to keep chickens but found there are just too many barriers. Here’s a list of our baby chick breeds available. Once again, thanks for the post!
