A Word from your Melbourne West & Geelong Franchisee
Hello, my name is Philip. Welcome to Henny Penny Hatching’s Melbourne West & Geelong franchise! I have lived and worked in this region for just over 20 years. In 2013 I joined the Henny Penny Hatching team, because I was after a career working with chickens. I find it rewarding to share the wonder of chicks hatching with others. It is amazing to watch the excitement on children’s faces as they learn to care for newly hatched chicks during Henny Penny Hatching’s interactive experience. Children of any age group can learn so much from this hands-on program. In addition, our program is supported with extensive educational resources which are available on our website. I deliver this hassle-free service to kindergartens, childcare centres, schools, aged care facilities and many other venues. Best of all, I bring delight to adults and children alike.
Learn about the life-cycle of chickens by witnessing the hatch, then nurturing the newborn chicks. You will then be able to take them home, or adopt them out, when the 11day program is finished! If your chicks are not all adopted out, I’m happy to take them back and find a home for them. For those who do adopt chicks, Take Home Packs are available. These consist of a feeder, a drinker, some feed and some bedding (wood shavings. This should be enough to get your chicks through the first week or two in their new home. Instructions on how to care for and raise the chicks are also available to help families who are raising chicks for the first time.
Have a look at our website and see what Our Program has to offer then give me a call. I will deliver and set up your program on a Monday between 9.00am & 2.00pm and collect it 11 days later (on a Friday) at approximately the same time. Once set up, I will talk you through the information provided and answer any questions you may have. You will receive basic care instructions, forms to assist you with adopting out the chicks and an informative poster for everyone to see. I am always on the other end of the phone if you have any concerns, or if you need assistance with anything regarding the program. My number is 0458 002 409.
The price per unit for our hatching program is $375 +GST*. We also offer a multi-unit discount for customers wanting more than one unit delivered to the same place, on the same day. So, why don’t you book one for each of your classrooms or areas? The cost for multiple units is $365 +GST* per unit. Our comprehensive service, equipment and quality educational programs will be sure to please.
We believe that everyone should experience the wonder of new life, the amazing way in which it begins and the nurturing that follows. I look forward to bringing that experience to you!
