Integrated Poultry School
Master every stage of poultry keeping — from brooding day-old chicks to flock health, egg production, meat processing, and farm economics — in one comprehensive, hands-on school.
Perfect for: Backyard flock owners, aspiring small-scale poultry farmers, homesteaders, and agricultural entrepreneurs with little to no formal poultry training who want a complete, systems-level education in raising and profiting from poultry.
From First Chick to Full Flock — Everything You Need in One Place
Most poultry courses teach you one thing: how to build a coop, or how to hatch eggs, or how to spot a sick bird. The Integrated Poultry School is different. It follows the complete lifecycle of a poultry operation — from selecting your breeds and setting up infrastructure, all the way through flock health management, egg and meat production, and turning your birds into a profitable enterprise. Every lesson connects to the next, so you build real, compounding knowledge rather than isolated tips.
Practical Skills, Not Just Theory
Every module is built around what you can do today. You'll complete hands-on activities like designing your own coop layout, creating a vaccination schedule, conducting a flock health audit, and calculating your cost-per-dozen eggs. Whether you're raising 6 backyard hens or planning a 500-bird operation, the frameworks taught here scale with you. You'll learn from real farm scenarios, troubleshoot common problems, and leave each lesson with a tangible deliverable.
Who This School Is For
This school is ideal for backyard chicken keepers ready to level up, small-scale farmers adding poultry to a diversified operation, or entrepreneurial beginners who want to start right the first time. No prior experience is required — only curiosity and the willingness to get your boots dirty.
What Makes This School Different
The "integrated" philosophy means you'll never look at your flock in silos again. Nutrition affects health. Housing affects behavior. Flock genetics affect profitability. By the end of this school, you'll see your poultry operation as a living system — and you'll have the knowledge to manage every part of it with confidence.
What you'll be able to do
- Design and build or retrofit a biosecure, well-ventilated poultry housing system suited to your climate and flock size
- Select the right breeds for your goals — whether egg production, meat, dual-purpose, or heritage conservation
- Brood day-old chicks successfully with correct temperature, nutrition, and early health protocols
- Identify and respond to the 10 most common poultry diseases and parasites using both preventive and curative strategies
- Create a complete feed and nutrition program that balances cost with optimal bird performance
- Manage a laying flock for peak egg production, including lighting schedules, molt management, and record keeping
- Process meat birds humanely and efficiently, meeting food safety standards for home use or direct-market sales
- Build a basic poultry business model — calculating cost of production, setting prices, and identifying your most profitable sales channels

Hi, I'm so glad you're here. I've spent years raising poultry — starting with a small backyard flock of six hens and growing into a diversified operation with laying flocks, meat birds, and heritage breeds. Along the way I made every mistake in the book: chicks lost to a cold brooder, a respiratory outbreak that swept through my flock because I skipped biosecurity, eggs priced so low I was losing money on every dozen. I built this school because I wish it had existed when I was starting out. Everything I teach here is grounded in what actually works on real farms, not just in textbooks. My goal is simple: to give you the knowledge and confidence to raise healthy, productive birds — and to build something you're genuinely proud of. Let's get started.
