Fall Flock Checklist for Sandston Farms
Before frost hits Henrico County, we tighten housing, check feed plans, and get layers ready for shorter days.
Fall is when good habits pay off. Shorter days mean fewer eggs unless birds are healthy, dry, and well fed, so September is checklist season on our Sandston farm.
What we check
We inspect coop drafts, clean nest boxes, confirm rodent-proof feed storage, and watch body condition as insects thin out and forage changes.
Backyard keepers in Greater Richmond can do the same in an afternoon. If you're adding pullets before winter, call us about what's available.
