Franklinton, North Carolina - Homestead Michelle & Steven are now serving Raleigh / Durham with Rent The Chicken and Hatch The Chicken.  They have four beautiful daughters joining them on this adventure. They all love the outdoors, working in the garden, hatching chicks, and caring for their animals - mainly the chickens, the modern dinosaur!  Their family farm, Tiny Talons Farm, launched just a few years ago when they decided to start growing and raising their own food to provide for their family. It has since egg-sploded into a multifaceted farmstead business. They are so thankful for what God has provided and are egg-cited to share it with their community.

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.
