The Loose Rooster Ranch

COMING IN AUGUST 2020  - PICK YOUR CHICKEN ONLINE

We will have the first online chicken store.  You will be able to view pictures of chickens - hens, roosters, and young hens not laying yet (pullets).  Information on the chicken will be available and you can purchase your chicken through paypal or venmo.

You will be given instructions on pick up - designated day on the weekend and timing.  

We need to keep the farm closed to foot traffic and visitors and limit our interaction due to Covid-19, so it is easiest for us to offer you this option to purchase your chickens and then drive through and pick up.

Check back for more info and listings coming August 6th

SEE A SWARM?  It looks like a mass of bees clumped together.  They can be hanging in a tree, or on a fence, or a car!!

We collect the swarm, rehome it at the ranch, and then hope that the prosper here!

Our first priority is honey bee and pollinator preservation.  Our second priority is to educate the public on honeybees, and beekeeping.  Of course the third is to enjoy HONEY!  We will share it with you if they produce!

Call 925-308-7126  Please allow us to get back to you - Since the Ranch will not run without income coming in - we actually work day jobs and still have to report to work, even now, so we usually will collect swarms after working hours (after 6pm M-F)

OUR EGGS ARE REGISTERED ORGANIC -

OUR CHICKENS LAY FRESH DOZENS EVERY DAY

Now available at the URBAN EDGE FARM STORE

Our eggs are free range, pasture raised, and from all different breeds of chickens.  You see, we believe that the chickens born from generations on the ranch have been naturally selected from the strongest chickens.  

We do not believe that one breed of chicken is best - we like the "mutt" of chickens - those that survived year after year, strong foragers, disease tolerant, heat and cold resistant, and from hens that were allowed to have their baby chicks here.  

No genetically altered chickens, no antibiotics, no large order feed store/hatchery chicks that have been vaccinated because they were bred from a chicken mill (like puppy mills) so no false advertising. 

ALSO we are a registered valid business and with a registered valid egg producer and handler certified!  When you visit the ranch we may ask you not to walk around, because by law we cannot have you handle our animals, or bring your animals in.  They would need to be quarantined for 2 weeks prior to being introduced to our animals.  Please do not bring you pets!!  

We will meet you at the front of the property and may ask you to wait while we bring the animals to you.   We may require you to wear "booties" or disinfect your shoes prior to walking in our chicken areas if you have your own flock.  This would insure that you are not bringing anything infectious into the ranch, and you aren't taking any contagion with you either

Beware of those selling backyard eggs (on Social Media) and without a business license!  Beware of those ranches that have slow egg production - their chickens may not have been so hardy or come from breeders in the Midwest that only care about how many they can sell to feed stores..  These chickens (chicks) are marketed so that they produce max # eggs in 2 years and then die.  Customers that buy from these places keep the inhumane treatment of these "chicken mills" in business.

TASTE THE DIFFERENCE - BUY YOUR EGGS HERE - LOCALLY!  WE ARE A SMALL BUSINESS, SMALL SALES 

 WE CARE ABOUT OUR CHICKS!

WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY OPEN - PLEASE CHECK BACK AUGUST 6 2020 for more details.

The Loose Rooster Ranch takes credit card payments through Square, Paypal (looseroosterranch@gmail.com) and I also take Venmo! Order 24-48 hours in advance, pay for your order and then pick up when convenient for you!

Please look for me on venmo, or scan.
