How to


Bare Necessities Farm, has parred down their chickenyard to concentrate on only five breeds of chickens.  Three are bantams, and two are standards.  Most are show stock or currently being improved to that end.  We are breeding to standard and will continue showing the majority of the breeds.  Click on any of the breeds mentioned below for information and photos of the birds. Most links are active, a few under construction, and some a bit outdated for the moment.  They will be updated very soon!  Visit them all!  It is well worth the time as these birds are all very beautiful and from unusual chicken breeds.

Below, I've posted a few photos of our laying-hen house.  There is where our flock of several pure breed hens reside with their rooster.  They are purely for our enjoyment and for their rainbow-colored egg production.
