Shannin Rettig enjoys raising all types of chickens. She especially loves seeing the different-colored eggs they produce.
Along with the standard white and brown, her heritage birds lay dark brown-, blue-, green- and pink-toned eggs. There s so much variety, Rettig said.
Rettig started raising heritage chickens in her backyard in Denver. When she moved back home to Kansas, she had them sit beside her in the moving van. They re just fun pets, Rettig said. When I met Chad, he let me expand to about 40.
Rettig and her husband, Chad Mathis, live on their farm in Haven, Circle Open R. Along with their chickens, the couple has four goats and the same number of horses.
