Want The Discount?
We will credit $50 off of your Rent The Chicken or adoption for every friend referred who Rents The Chicken. Credits can never be refunded as cash and can never be used for more than one Rental Season at a time.
Possible Transportation Fees
Our Rental Packages include FREE DELIVERY to the greater Portland and Vancouver areas. This includes from Hillsboro to Troutdale and north to Salmon Creek. If you live outside of the free delivery parameters, you may incur a predetermined yearly transportation fee. For customers outside of our FREE DELIVERY area, please call us toll-free at 844-310-8782 for a delivery quote. Rentals to the greater Portland and Vancouver areas are being delivered from Jefferson, Oregon. Rentals will be grouped then delivered and picked up together. If an early pick-up is needed, a predetermined fee will be charged. This helps keep the rental prices lower depending on combined trips. Due to the distance, if a rental chicken is not healthy or worse during the rental, they can meet with a replacement chicken within 50 miles of their location without a transportation fee. If you prefer for them to bring a replacement chicken, a transportation fee will be determined.
Additional Notes:
Our Standard Coops are about 31" wide while our Deluxe Coops are about 57" wide. Both easily roll from on our trailer to most backyards. If your property requires the coop to be lifted over a wall or fence due to your gate being less than 31 or 57" wide, we'll need for you to commit a member of your household to help Homestead David & Fay lift the coop. If for one reason or another the coop cannot be lifted, our coops can be delivered un-assembled ($60) or partially assembled ($40). The predetermined fee is for both delivery and pick-up.
Possible additional fees: Due to the increase of feed cost and fuel cost, closer to delivery, there may be a slight surcharge for one or both of these items.
Jefferson, Oregon - Homestead David and Fay provide Rent The Chicken and Hatch The Chicken between Portland and Springfield, Oregon as well as Vancouver, Washington. They left the city with their dog, Jade, to enjoy the country and live a more self-sustaining lifestyle. With the purchase of their farm in Jefferson, the couple inherited ~30 chickens of varying breeds and a pair of peafowl. Homestead David has experience caring for chickens; during his childhood he often helped his parents and grandparents tend to their flocks. For Homestead Fay, raising chickens has been a completely new and delightful experience. As a life-long dog-lover, she quickly learned that chickens also bring much joy to the farm with their amusing antics and unique personalities. Their flock has quickly grown as they both enjoy hatching and raising chicks. Homestead Fay works remotely in the information technology industry. In their spare time they enjoy gardening, wine tasting and spending time with their family and farm animals. They look forward to providing Hatch The Chicken to Portland / Vancouver and Eugene / Salem / Springfield as well as Rent The Chicken to Portland / Vancouver and Eugene / Salem / Springfield!
At Rent The Chicken, our mission is to help families and communities reconnect with their food through the experience of backyard chickens. Across our network of homesteads and partner farms, we’re proud to offer Rent The Chicken and Hatch The Chicken programs that make keeping chickens fun, educational, and accessible. Each of our team members brings a passion for sustainability, hands-on learning, and sharing the joy that comes from fresh eggs and happy hens.
