Happy Chickens,
Healthy Life
Discover our natural approach to raising happy, healthy chickens that provide nutritious eggs and bring joy to our homestead.
Natural Chicken Care
Our Philosophy
At Triple H Farm, we believe that happy chickens make for healthy eggs and a joyful homestead. Our approach respects the birds’ instincts and needs while providing the best possible environment.
When chickens can express natural behaviors—scratching, dust bathing, foraging, and socializing—they thrive and reward us with nutritious eggs and delightful companionship.
Benefits of Natural Chicken Care
Naturally raised flocks tend to have stronger immune systems and fewer health problems.
Eggs from naturally raised chickens often contain more omega-3s, vitamins, and minerals.
Natural methods create less waste and build healthier soil through composting and smart foraging.
Seasonal Chicken Care
Spring Chicken Care
As temperatures warm and daylight increases, egg production naturally rises and chickens become more active.
SPRING CHECKLIST
- Deep clean the coop after winter
- Check for and repair winter damage
- Refresh nesting material
- Plant chicken-friendly herbs in the run
Summer Chicken Care
SUMMER CHECKLIST
- Provide plenty of shade and cool water
- Freeze treats like watermelon for heat relief
- Watch for mites and heat stress
Fall Chicken Care
FALL CHECKLIST
- Prep for molting with extra protein
- Rake leaves into the run for enrichment
- Weather-seal drafts but keep ventilation
Winter Chicken Care
Focus on dryness, ventilation, and predator-proofing. Chickens handle cold better than damp.

- Keep bedding dry; remove moisture sources
- Vent high, not at roost level (avoid drafts)
- Use wide roosts to protect feet
- Ensure unfrozen water supply
- Predator-proof doors and latches
