🏴‍☠️ Black Pearls & Gentlemen Guards – Treasures of Vassar Farm 🥚🐓

Ahoy from Vassar Farm — where every feather tells a story and every egg holds promise!

Meet the Black Pearls, our bold new breed of heritage chickens. With plumage as dark as deep-sea treasure and a mission as golden as their future eggs, these beauties are being bred for one thing: the perfect boiling egg. Whether you're cooking over fire, steam, or steel (okay, a pressure cooker), we're selecting for yolks that hold firm, shells that peel easy, and eggs that shine in every dish.

But every treasure needs protection..Meet David’s Rooster Crew — a band of well-mannered, feathered gentlemen chosen not for aggression, but for their respectful, friendly nature. These roosters are David’s personal adventure in farming, each one earning their keep by being calm, family-safe, and full of character. They proudly stand guard over the hens, patrol the pastures, and make sure the farmyard stays lively — not rowdy.

🦜 Raised Like Royalty
All of our birds — hens and roos alike — free-range by day and roost in safety each night. They dine on locally milled feed, fresh greens, and the occasional pirate-approved treat. Until the Black Pearls begin to lay, we’re offering farm-fresh eggs from our seasoned laying crew — tried, true, and delicious.

From David’s gentleman guards to our rising egg-laying stars, Vassar Farm is proudly building a flock that’s bold, kind, and a little bit legendary.

🐔⚓ The Henhouse Heirlooms – Vassar’s Feathered Jewels of the Nest 🌈🥚

Ahoy and welcome aboard the roost of royalty! At Vassar Farm, our hens aren’t just cluckin’ pretty — they be hand-picked treasures, chosen for their gentle hearts, dazzling plumage, and egg-laying prowess fit for a captain’s feast.

From our homebred Black Pearls — the finest young ladies destined to lay golden eggs that boil up like magic — to the rare beauties who’ve caught the sharp eyes of Captain David or First Mate Jessica, each hen has earned her perch aboard this fine feathered crew.

🌈 Eggs as Colorful as a Pirate’s Map
We be craftin’ a flock that lays in every hue from seafoam green to treasure-chest brown. Not just for show — we’re on a quest for the perfect hard-boiled egg: firm, flawless, easy to peel, and delicious enough to silence the saltiest sailor.

🦜 Free to Roam, Loyal to Home
By day, they range the land like explorers; by night, they return to the safety of their cozy coop, fed on locally milled rations, fresh greens, and the occasional pirate-approved snack. These hens be not just layers — they’re legends in the makin’.

So raise yer mug (or egg basket) to the Henhouse Heirlooms — the pride of Vassar Farm, bold of feather, rich of character, and keepers of the golden yolk.
