And yes! It is indeed fun. For years, I watched my little flock of six chooks grow. They free ranged around the farm, pecking and scratching, and curiously nibbling at anything they could get their beaks on. They clucked and cooed and sometimes quarreled with each other. When I hollered for them, they would all race toward me. I felt like the Pied Piper with my own flock of tiny little Velociraptors.

That little flock of modern dinosaurs grew and grew. It’s funny how that happens with chickens -don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about! Twelve years later, my love for these birds grew into The Broody Hen. I wanted to share the joy of chicken ownership, motivate people to grow their own food, and encourage people to learn the value, responsibility, and privilege of raising their own little lives from colorful little orbs to protein producing, bug controlling, fertilizer making chooks!

TBH Farm is located in the Sierra Foothills, just shy of Lake Tahoe in beautiful Northern California. We are a small boutique homestead that adheres to humane and sustainable practices to bring you hatching eggs from happy, healthy flocks. We focus of quality, not quantity for those searching for an alternative to massive hatcheries.

While our focus is on hatching eggs, on occasion, we have chickens and young birds available. Shipping and local pickup available. To stay in the loop on availability, please like us on instagram, where we post frequent updates.
