Sounds Of The Farm - The Laying Hens

posted on

May 2, 2025

One thing I love to do on the farm on sunny afternoons (when the chores are done and there is time to reflect a little) is to just go out and sit in the field with the animals. 

Listening to their unique sounds and quirky ways combined with the fresh air, gentle breeze and soft sunshine is some excellent relaxation at the end of a long day. 

I had the opportunity to do this with the hens the other day and I thought I would record it and share it with you. I think I will do a bit of a series on the different "sounds of the farm" and beginning with the hens. 

"Cluck, cluck" doesn't quite do justice to the sounds they make out on pasture. What do you think?

Our Hens Today

What did you think?One of my favorite things about the hens is just how friendly they are. They run up just to see what's new and haha to see if I scared up any bugs. It's not just great for the hens and the land though its also great for the families who enjoy our eggs. The result of this truly pasture raised regenerative model for raising hens is some incredibly nutrient rich eggs! Our growing family eats eggs for breakfast nearly every day but in spite of our 5 children's ravenous appetites for our eggs right now we have a seasonal abundance (it happens almost every Spring) and so we are offering  Free Eggs For A FriendThey are completely free.All we ask is that you don't use them for yourself, but instead give them away to family or friends that are really interested in nourishing their family well. It's a win win. They get to enjoy the best nutrient rich eggs available and get a connection to their very own farmer!Give Free Eggs For A Friend ==>NOTE (If you are currently utilizing our home delivery option for getting our pasture raised eggs since you can't order them singly, if you give one to bless another family just email myfarmers@fedfromthefarm.com and we can credit your account for you :)Thank you for supporting and sharing about our pasture based farm. It is an honor to serve you from our farm's bounty!
