Chickens
Did you know that eggs can be up to 3 weeks old before they even get to a supermarket? Do you know the conditions the hens experienced, or what was fed to them? Wouldn’t you prefer access to fresh, hormone free eggs from happy, healthy chickens?
Keeping chickens for eggs is a wonderful and rewarding thing to do. If you have children, it is also a valuable hobby for your little ones to help with.
You'll be amazed at the difference eating an egg that is only a day, an hour or 5 minutes old! With calcium rich hard shells, the yolks are large and packed full of essential nutrients. The white is full of body and hugs the yolk when you crack it in your frying pan for breakfast. Cakes and muffins are light and fluffy and more moist compared to cooking with store bought eggs.
It’s a comparison that you just have to taste for yourself.
The needs of chickens are simple; shelter from the sun and rain, a comfortable place to lay eggs, a small space to scratch around in, fresh water and lots of kitchen or garden scraps. Chickens are the cornerstone of recycling and composting in your garden turning kitchen scraps into fresh eggs and provide fertiliser for your vegetable garden and compost.
Most importantly, you know what they eat and therefore know the quality of the eggs you eat.
No hormones, no treated feeds, no cramped cages, just a good life for your hens, and fresh nutritious eggs for you!

Why choose our coops?
Our chicken pens are hand made in a workshop in Perth. We understand Perth's tough weather conditions and build our coops to last.
The alternative is a mass factory produced chicken pen, imported and found on online shopping and retail pet chain stores. These chicken pens look cute, however the reality is they simply do not last. In fact after less than a year the pen may become unusable.
In addition, the pens are fumigated to enter the country. The pens often smell like fumigant for months and in many cases the fumigant crystallises and can be found in solid form on the inside and outside of the coops. Perfect for the chooks to pick at or to find its way onto your child's hands.
The coops often arrive with split wood and rusted fittings, they warp and swell in wet weather, are much smaller than you would be lead to believe and do not stack up to the claims made by enthusiastic salespeople (Suits 6 chickens?....crazy!)
We offer you a much better option!
