Let’s be real. Every backyard chicken keeper has a vibe. Maybe you’re the spreadsheet warrior who refreshes the brooder temp every 30 minutes. Or maybe you’re the laid-back, “they’ll be fine” type who gives your chickens side-eye if they even think about drama.
At Cluck It All Farms, we’ve seen ’em all. And we love you for it.
Here are five iconic chicken-keeper types. Be warned... you will feel called out. (And yes, we’ve matched each type with their perfect product. Because of course we did.)
🧪 The Brooder Overachiever
You’ve got:
✔️ Multiple thermometers
✔️ An Excel doc for brooder temps by hour
✔️ A backup brooder for your backup brooder
You’ve read every article, asked 14 questions in 3 chicken groups, and still don’t feel ready. You check the chick’s poop like it’s a lab sample. You are built for preparedness (and slight panic). You have a headlamp, nitrile gloves, and a designated brooder playlist. And deep down… you’re kinda proud of it.
Your Perfect Match:
👉 Double-Tuf Beginner Poultry Kit
This kit’s got everything you need, and it’ll calm that spiraling brain of yours before hatch day hits.
💅 The Treat Queen
You refer to your chickens as “the girls” and probably say “mama’s got snacks” out loud. Their snack rotation is more nutritious than your own lunch. They have preferences. You cater to them. You once Googled “can chickens eat blueberries” in the produce aisle. You’ve hand-fed grubs, pre-soaked herbs, and you absolutely have one hen that gets extra because she’s been through a lot.
You’re not ashamed.
Your Perfect Match:
👉 The Treat Queen’s Stash
A flock-spoiling bundle of chicken-approved snacks. Perfect for bribery, bonding, or just saying, “yes, you are the moment.”
📚 The Forum Fighter
You’ve read every USDA document on poultry health. You fact-check people in Facebook groups with sources. You’re not here for fluff, myths, or coop drama—you’re here for science and sanity. If one more person recommends garlic water for coccidiosis, you might scream into your compost pile. You’re the reason “actually…” comments exist, and we love you for it.
Your Perfect Match:
👉 Feral Hen Energy Tee
Wear your energy on your sleeve, and remind the world you’ve got receipts and restraint.
🧘 The Chill as Cluck-er
Your motto? “If the chicken doesn’t care, neither do I.” You’re not lazy, you’re intuitive. You trust the birds. You love a landrace breed because they just handle it. And when a panic post hits the forums, you’re the one sipping coffee like “they’ll be fine.” You compost deep litter, let broody hens sort it out, and have made peace with the chaos. You’re basically the flock’s emotional support human.
Your Perfect Match:
👉 Hatching Eggs Collection
Hardy genetics, low drama. Just hatch, raise, repeat.
🔧 The DIY MacGyver
Your coop was built out of scraps and pure determination. You’ve engineered predator defenses from zip ties and spite. You believe if a product can’t survive Ohio winters, it doesn’t deserve your money. You've muttered "I can build that cheaper" at least once a week—and you’re usually right. You’ve battled raccoons, rebuilt fencing during storms, and consider a cordless drill an extension of your soul.
Your Perfect Match:
👉 5 lb No-Waste Poultry Feeder
Built like a tank. No wasted feed. No chicken tantrums. MacGyver would approve.
So... Who Are You?
Did you find yourself in one of these flock-tastic personalities? Maybe you’ve evolved from Brooder Overachiever to Chill as Cluck-er after a few hard lessons. Or maybe you’re out here rocking Treat Queen energy with a cordless drill strapped to your belt. No judgment. We contain multitudes. So do our coops.
The truth is, there’s no “right” way to be a chicken keeper, only the way that works for you and your birds. Whether you’re deep into spreadsheets, elbow-deep in mealworms, or halfway through another half-broken coop rebuild, you’re part of a bigger cluckin’ community that gets it.
We’ve all had moments of brilliance, breakdowns, and accidental chicken fashion shows. That’s what makes this life messy, hilarious, and weirdly magical.
However you cluck, we’re glad you’re here.
