Why buy eggs when you can simply rent hens? Although hosting hens is certainly no cheaper
than plucking eggs from a market bin, it can be more educational, and even more nutritious.
Kids who know nothing about eggs outside of Humpty Dumpty might
be tickled to learn that omelettes
originate from the same orifice as chicken droppings. They might also be strengthened from eating
fresh eggs rather than by waiting a month or two for the oldies to arrive from farm to grocery.
If you’re wondering how to care for hired hens and your
wallet is bulging with Los Angeles wealth, there’s a solution at hand. Just call upon “Rent a Chicken,” and your yard
may soon be transformed into Hen Central, “predator-proof coop” and all.
