How a Midwestern family with no agriculture experience went from a few backyard chickens to a full-fledged farm—and discovered why local chicks are better. When Lucie Amundsen had a rare night out with her husband, she never imagined what he’d tell her over dinner—that his dream was to quit his office job (with benefits!) and start a commercial-scale pasture-raised egg farm. His entire agricultural experience consisted of raising five backyard hens, none of whom had yet laid a single egg. To create this pastured poultry ranch, the couple scrambles to acquire nearly two thousand chickens—all named Lola. These hens, purchased commercially, arrive bereft of basic chicken-y instincts, such as the evening urge to roost. The newbie farmers also deal with their own shortcomings, making for a failed inspection and intense struggles to keep livestock alive (much less laying) during a brutal winter. But with a heavy dose of humor, they learn to negotiate the highly stressed no-man’s-land known as Middle Agriculture. Amundsen sees firsthand how these midsized farms, situated between small-scale operations and mammoth factory farms, are vital to rebuilding America’s local food system. With an unexpected passion for this dubious enterprise, Amundsen shares a messy, wry, and entirely educational story of the unforeseen payoffs (and frequent pitfalls) of one couple’s ag adventure—and many, many hours spent wrangling chickens.

Excerpt from Eggs and Egg Farms: Trustworthy Information Regarding the Successful Production of Eggs the Construction Plans of Poultry Buildings and the Methods of Feeding That Make Egg Farming Most Profitable It is not within the province of this introduction to give the formulas of mashes that are used for feeding, but you can make a suitable mash at home by combining palatable ground grains, bran, middlings and blood meal, or you can purchase one of the excellent egg producing mashes that are offered for sale. The latter are mixtures of ground grain, alfalfa (clover) meal and either blood meal, dessicated fish or other animal food. The function of the latter product is to increase the protein content, which in turn is used by the fowl in the for mation of the albumen of the egg. Some breeders omit the blood meal from the grain mixture and place-a hopper of beef scraps in the pen. You are probably aware that fowls require grit or sharp stones, shell material such as crushed oyster shells and pure water. Feeding for eggs is carefully considered in this book and we take pleasure in referring you to the articles by Mr. Dry den and Mr. Brooks. These gentlemen are both agricultural workers of known experience and ability, and the information they present is reliable.
