Amanda Brenneman

Amanda Brenneman, chicken breeder in southern Colorado near Colorado Springs, cares for heritage flocks with attention to health and temperament. She has worked with backyard and hobby flocks for several years and follows guidelines from the American Poultry Association for breed standards and basic health screening.

Membership in a regional poultry club keeps her informed on best practices and allows access to peer-reviewed breeding records. Birds enjoy daily pasture rotation, cooperative foraging and social time inside a climate-controlled coop. Amanda sources non-GMO feed from local mills and maintains all housing on a small-scale, family-run homestead.

A lifelong interest in sustainable husbandry led to informal farm open days, where visitors observe natural behaviors and breeding protocols. Chicks receive early socialization with gentle handling to encourage calm, friendly dispositions. Hatched birds are vaccinated against common pathogens and receive individualized care under veterinarian guidance.
