Generate cash flow for your farming operation with pastured laying hens

Lack of cash flow sinks many businesses. The product or service may be great, but without cash flow, the business can't operate.

Aside from dairying, the egg is the best source of cash flow in farming. Why? Because chickens lay eggs every day.

Egg production is a functional, practical enterprise for any farming endeavor. It's ideal for families and farms of all sizes.

This course covers everything you need to know to start and run your own egg operation. You'll learn about free-ranging, controlled-ranging, and secure systems, as well as the pros and cons of each approach.

You'll also learn about breeds, health & sanitation, defending against predators, marketing, pricing, and much more.

Eggs are a fantastic gateway product that attracts new customers and leads to sales of other products. With this course, you can learn the methods Joel Salatin has mastered over several decades at Polyface Farm.

Generate a Full-Time Income from Your Farm

While the course material at Farm Like a Lunatic is applicable to a homestead or backyard farm, our goal is to help students develop a full-time income from farming. We need full-time farmers throughout the world, and certainly in the United States.

Through all of our courses, we aim to encourage folks to jump into enterprises that are vocationally credible in the industry. A pastured laying hens operation is a practical, realistic approach, and we hope you'll join us on this journey.

This pastured laying hens model is an antidote to the concentrated animal farming operations (CAFOs) that are so prevalent today. Not only will you generate cashflow with your egg enterprise, but you'll also provide the community with a delicious and nutritional product that far exceeds what's sold in stores.

Purchase Foundations of Farming & Homesteading, and you'll get access to ALL of our courses, including this one. (You'll also get access to all courses we release in the future at no additional cost!)

"He's not going back to the old model. There's nothing in county extension or old-fashioned ag science that really informs him. He is just looking totally afresh at how to maximize production in an integrated system on a holistic farm. He's just totally innovative."

- Author Jo Robinson

An Egg Worth Eating

"Few enterprises hold as much opportunity as a pastured egg enterprise. Commercial pastured egg enterprises offer our whole culture an alternate food item in a pastured egg that doesn't exist in most stores.

"The reason we need this course is because we need to understand how to actually make an egg that pops, and egg that's got pizazz, an egg that's exciting. This type of egg is nutritionally and emotionally exciting to sell. It can create a new enterprise for you, for your family, your farm community, and our culture as a whole. It's an egg worth eating."
