I'm sorry I'm not familiar with the renting chickens concept. What happens to the chickens when they take them away? Do you get the option to keep them if you want?
I mean I guess it would be good for someone that decides chickens are not for them to be able to just have someone take them.
I believe that the chickens join a laying flock once you've had them for the summer. The way it seems to work is that a farm joins the program, they send out started pullets/young hens in the spring, and you give them back laying hens in the fall. You do have the ability to keep them later, but they'll charge you to keep the coop.
