Fresh eggs straight form backyard: who is not seduced by this idea in Organic Age ? But if you are not sure if you are ready for the commitment, RentTheChicken.co allows you to rent some chickens!

Every spring thousands of chickens are sold at local farm supply stores in the United States. Often chickens die before they are ready to start laying eggs (16-30 weeks). Children quickly realize that chickens are not like toys. They mean a lot of expenses and end up going back to the place where they came from: the farms.

Other people have many questions about raising chickens and sometimes they think they do not have the space. The solution RentTheChicken. is to provide a mobile chicken coop, food and supplies and laying hens for eggs!

This is an innovative idea that allows the incredible experience to produce your own food with livestock. Allows you make mistakes, without paying dearly for it and if this is not your vocation, you sure have a story to tell.

And the cool thing: this experience is part of the promising trend of  Economy Sharing Economy which facilitates access over ownership. You do not necessarily need to own the chickens  if what you are  really interested in  is to have access to them.

The eggs from the chickens help you,
