Harp Turkey Ranch

  With our nice  winter weather that blew in on Friday night can not do much on the outside of the farm. The snow finally stopped falling last night and we wound up with 6-7". Suppose to get another dose of snow on Wednesday. Now the temps are in the high teens. So after an hour in the mornings and after noons of refilling frozen water with warm water and feeding animals I have nothing but time to plan for this next year. We are going to grow out some Freedom Ranger chickens this year. They are a meat bird that is used in France for their Label Rouge program. You can click on the link to learn more. I have read alot on this program and we are going to raise our meat chickens to this program this year. Even though we raise our birds pretty much the same as the program with just a few differences. After alot of searching I have found a hatchery to buy these chicks at. I don't understand why we in the United States don't have something like this program ?? 

   We will also offer hatching eggs from our Heritage Turkeys this year and our Heritage Delaware chickens in the late spring/summer. This will be the first year that we have offered our eggs in a mail order before.Should be an exciting year !! Stay tuned for more details !!
