Yes, Rent A Chicken.com In Fact Is A Real Thing
It sounds like something from an idyllic calendar: hens pecking in the grass, farm-fresh eggs every morning.
But what if they stink? What if the neighbors complain about the noise?
For those casual or new-and-unsure homesteaders, a Freeport couple with Indiana ties is offering an unusual way to decide if chickens are right for you: rent a couple for the summer.
“It really is a trial period for someone who wants to have chickens long term,” said “Homestead” Phil Thompkins, who runs Rent the Chicken with his wife, Jenn. “A lot of people don’t know where to start.”
