My Woodland Chickens and Our History

I started off with three chickens on March 11, 2009. When I first started I was working with my uncle. In May 2010 I took over his two remaining chickens and I started my business, Olivia's Woodland Chickens. Since then, chickens have come and gone, each of them were good layers and played their own role in the chicken pecking order. I have named everyone who has been a part of my flock. Take a look around and meet our flock.

Our original logo was designed in 2009. We kept this as our logo for over five years. I have since redrawn the logo and have updated the egg cartons to include the new logo.
