We currently house one adult Plymouth Rock hen and her six adopted teenage girls, four Ameraucanas and two Welsummers.This small flock is the basis for the Menlo Park 4-H Club’s Urban Poultry Co-op, where members learn about poultry and take turns caring for them before their parents invest in a coop of their own. We look forward to when the girls start laying a rainbow of eggs later this year! A great way to “test drive” chicken husbandry.
