Experts say that eggs produced by hens raised on pasture are nutritionally superior to eggs currently sold in supermarkets. Studies indicate that they have less cholesterol, less saturated fat, more vitamin A and E, more omega-3 fatty acids, and more beta-carotene than their supermarket counterparts. And as any backyard chicken farmer will attest, organic eggs hatched at the home chicken coop UK are tastier, too.

Chickens are very similar to other pets – they form bonds with their owners, they get along well with children and like any pet, they are full of surprises. They also have a lot of personality. Many people now have their very own healthy, happy flock of chickens, not to mention a non-stop supply of delicious eggs, in their own backyard. All that is needed is a well-designed coop and some land where the chickens can move around. Virtually anyone can join in this local food movement.

To have a productive and content flock of chickens, they first need adequate floor space. Six square feet of floor space per chicken is ideal. In addition, the coop must be dry and well ventilated, with plenty of oxygen. Good ventilation also allows excess moisture, ammonia and carbon dioxide to escape. If the chickens are dry, they will stay warm and safe, even in cold weather and the happier and healthier the hens are, the more eggs they will produce. Chicken coops UK provide just what they need.

A lesser-known advantage of raising chickens is that they produce high quality manure from their droppings that is rich in nitrogen. This manure is a natural fertilizer and can be recycled into the owner’s garden or even sold. The average hen produces 250 to 300 eggs per year; so excess eggs can also be sold to bolster family income in trying economic times.

Chicken farming with chicken coops UK is safe, too. Although there are many fears of the avian flu, recent studies indicate that it is more likely to be found in factory-farmed poultry than backyard chickens. In fact, diverse backyard chicken farming is more likely to be a solution, rather than a cause of the problem.

Chicken farming has been practiced for thousands of years. Chicken coops UK will help you join the local food movement for a more sustainable future. Besides the delicious eggs and valuable manure, many chicken coops UK are portable. In addition, owning chickens is a wonderful opportunity for children to learn lessons about responsibility, hard work, and the value of money. With all these benefits, it is not surprising that raising chickens has become such a popular pastime.
