Homestead Nikki proudly provides Rent The Chicken and Hatch The Chicken to families, classrooms, and communities in Calgary, Edmonton, and Red Deer. A fifth-generation farmer and rancher from Central Alberta, Homestead Nikki runs a grain and cattle farm with her husband, Homestead Tyler, while raising their two daughters. Alongside her work on the farm, Homestead Nikki is an agricultural project manager and co-owner of Willow & Wheat, a children’s clothing and accessories brand inspired by rural living. Her passion for agricultural education and her lifelong love of **livestock—especially chickens—**led her to join Rent The Chicken . Nikki and her family are egg-cited to share the joy of chickens, farm-fresh eggs, and hands-on agricultural learning with families and schools across Alberta!

What happens to the chicks?

Here are a number of scenarios as to what happens to the baby chicks after our Hatch The Chicken program is complete:

The girls are raised to be hens for Rent The Chicken
The girls are raised as breeding stock for Hatch The Chicken
The boys are raised to be roosters to fertilize eggs for Hatch The Chicken
The girls are raised to lay eggs for our families
The boys are raised to protect our flocks to help keep them safe
The chicks are sold to families looking to expand their flocks
The roosters are sold to families looking to protect their flock

We can't confirm what other organizations do with their baby chicks after a hatching program but we know with our whole hearts that all of the chicks hatched with our Hatch The Chicken program provide a purpose following the rental. We value their lives and value what they bring to our business and those who participate in our programs.
