I have a rent a chicken about 4 miles from me.
They have been in business for 4 or 5 years now.
I thought about rent a trap. But after much thought, I realized how bad that could be.
It was just a thought, don't get excited.

I don't think that would go over to good in Iowa at the moment, with bird flu going on. They just liquidated 250,000 in one laying house the other day.

Rent a Chicken??? Why would anyone do that?

I guess maybe you could rent a coop and some chickens to see if you raising chickens is really something you want to invest in or not. Is it a sort of "try it before you buy it" system?


What from Christ that soul can sever,
Bound by everlasting bands?
None shall take thee
From the Strength of Israel's hands.

It happens with beehives, but it is normally for pollination of a specific item, ie blueberries or almonds..

What a great business idea. It seems like it’s paying off for whoever created it.

A couple of years ago our small flock was wiped out by red fox. Ever since I started eating eggs from our backyard birds I can’t stand the pale, tasteless yokes in store-bought eggs. So I went on craigslist and various other sources to see if I could buy some mature laying hens. I didn’t want to wait five months before a new chicks would be laying. I was shocked at the prices.


Eh...wot?

Somemoned probably rent him.lol

They don't offer chicken rentals..least this company doesn't in wv..

They must think were too poor or too smart to pay to rent on a dang chicken.

Wonder if I did a rent ... one get one half price deal itd work in wv?

None of the people I know would even THINK about renting a chicken.lil course there are a few city slickers upstate from me

What are the catches, Cathryn? I know this may come across as an ignorant question. But I don't mean it that way. This sounds like a great idea to me. It's one stop shopping. Maybe they need to include some kelp or electrolytes. But it sounds like a neat idea overall. They need to have an outlet in Virginia because I don't want to pay the extra shipping. LOL.


wanna be goat farmer.

Yes big business in places. some farms that are "organic" use them for insect control close to there crops. Mike Rowe had a segment about it on how America works.. They serve 2 purposes. The set the coop in the field before the crop goes out. The chickens are raised not to stay from th coop too far. They put down the layer of fertilizer naturally thru the poop.

Cathryn there were people in my local small town that rented them when this all first started.
I believe when they started they used web cams in the pens. All the pens were at the farm near my daughters house, and you rented a chicken and could watch it all day if you wanted to.
I think the idea of taking to chickens to the renters was because they were running out of places to put more pens.
Not sure though.
