Natural Herbal Nesting Box Blend for Backyard Chickens
Scent of Spring is a proprietary blend of sweet-smelling herbs formulated to help your hens relax as they return to laying. This hand-selected herbal mix combines lavender, rose hips, calendula, oregano, sage, and chamomile to create a calming environment in your chicken coop.
Key Ingredients and Benefits
Each herb in this blend serves a specific purpose for your flock's wellbeing. Lavender and chamomile provide natural calming properties that help reduce stress in laying hens. Calendula and rose hips support overall health, while oregano offers natural antimicrobial benefits. The combination creates an aromatic environment that hens actively seek out when it's time to lay.
Multiple Uses for Your Chicken Coop
Line nesting boxes with Scent of Spring to create a comfortable, inviting space where your hens will settle in contentedly. The aromatic herbs encourage consistent laying patterns and make nest boxes more appealing to your flock. Beyond nesting boxes, incorporate these herbs into your chickens' dust bath to help keep parasites at bay naturally.
Application and Care Instructions
Mix 1/2 cup of herbs per nesting box 2 to 3 times per week for optimal results. Change bedding in nesting boxes immediately if it becomes soiled or wet to maintain hygiene. For best practices, replace nesting box bedding weekly to prevent mold growth and mite infestations. This regular maintenance schedule ensures your hens always have a clean, fresh environment for laying.
Hand-Selected Quality for Healthier Eggs
Every herb in Scent of Spring is carefully hand-selected to ensure premium quality for your backyard flock. When hens are relaxed and comfortable in their laying environment, they produce healthier eggs with better consistency. The natural properties of these herbs work together to support your chickens' wellbeing while creating a pleasant atmosphere in your coop that benefits both you and your birds.
Complete Your Flock — Essentials Every Chicken Keeper Needs
Do you offer local pickup?
We offer scheduled local pickup for pullets and adult hens in Arizona through meetups in cities like Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Globe, Waddell, and Tucson. We do not operate a walk-in retail store or farm tours. Baby chicks, hatching eggs and quail are raised at our Texas location and ship by mail.
What time of year can you ship baby chicks?
Because we ship from Texas rather than directly out of Arizona's hottest months, we can offer baby chicks most of the year with adjustments around extreme heat or cold. Peak chick season fills early, so it's smart to reserve your ship window in advance for the breeds you want even though we do have off-season availability.
Where are you located?
The Arizona location is near Globe, AZ, though we do not operate a store. It is our home and farm. The Arizona location manages our seasonally grown hen orders. The Texas farm is located near Tyler, TX. The Texas location manages our breeders, baby chicks and quail. We ship year round from our Texas farm supporting families around the US.
Live Chick Guarantee
We go the extra mile and provide 115% store credit for any losses.
