Some call it the middle of nowhere. I call it HOME.
I never dreamed I’d grow up to be a crazy chicken lady, but here I am killing it!
Welcome to Lucky Clucks Farm.
Lucky Clucks Farm is a small family-run hobby farm located in the beautiful Hamilton–Niagara region of Ontario. Home to over 50 happy hens, two adorable Mini Lop bunnies, and a growing collection of beloved animals, our farm is built on a passion for country living, animal care, and spending quality time together as a family.
Our journey began in 2021 during the COVID lockdowns. Like many families, we were looking for a way to spend more time outdoors and make better use of the land we were fortunate enough to call home. With our family going through dozens of eggs each week, raising our own chickens seemed like the perfect place to start. What began as a small flock of just seven hens quickly grew into something much bigger than we ever imagined.
Over the years, we’ve expanded our flock, built new coops and outdoor spaces by hand, welcomed new animals, and experienced both the joys and challenges that come with farm life. We’ve celebrated milestones, learned valuable lessons through setbacks—including navigating Marek’s disease—and continued to grow with every season.
Today, Lucky Clucks Farm is lovingly managed by the three of us—my husband, our teenage daughter, and me. Along with our flock of chickens, our family also includes two Mini Lop bunnies, several dogs, cats, and even two ferrets. Every animal is an important part of our story and reminds us daily why we started this journey.
We love sharing life on the farm with our community, whether it’s providing fresh farm eggs, documenting new projects, or simply posting the everyday moments that make hobby farming so rewarding.
Thanks for stopping by—we’re so glad you’re here!
Store vs farm fresh
Yolk differences.
Store bought eggs are months old by the time they reach your home. As the eggs age, they lose nutrients. Thus, resulting in a difference in both the appearance (color) and taste. Yolks from farm eggs are fresh (a couple of weeks old at the most) which result in darker, denser, and a richer taste due to the food sources that are available to them.
Food sources.
Chickens raised in factories are given the minimal food sources that just meet their nutritional needs. Our chickens spend their days outside with natural food sources, natural sunlight, additional nutrients from scraps we give them, as well as nutritional needs such as feed. This results in a richer yolk and a more nutritional egg. Farm fresh eggs are higher in Vitamin D, higher in Omega-3 fatty acids.
Quantity vs Quality.
Our chickens are raised on our hobby farm as pets with benefits. The benefits are eggs obviously but what we have found is that they provide us with peace in our life, and time to spend together as a family outdoors enjoying our acreage. They are treated no differently than our dogs or cats. We ensure their areas are clean, fresh food and water daily, weather proofed to protect them from the elements and predators, and ensure they have enough space to be chickens. Chickens raised in factories or chicken houses are not given the love, affection, and space they need to be chickens. Factories want as many as they can fit into the space to produce as many eggs as possible with the least amount of cost, resulting in the most amount of profit for them. It is a matter of quantity of chickens resulting in a larger quantity of eggs rather than quality like on our farm.
