Welcome to Mountain Glen Farm!

Mountain Glen Farm is nestled in the scenic Idaho Panhandle about 75 miles from the Canadian border, 40 miles from Coeur d' Alene and just a stone's throw from Schweitzer Mountain and the resort town of Sandpoint on Lake Pend Oreille where the rolling lush pastureland provides the perfect nurturing environment for our farm's residents and their offspring.

We are a small, family owned and operated farm, initially established in 2009 to help provide quality project animals to the local 4H community, but since our children are rapidly growing up and away, we have made some adjustments to the products we provide and which are more "user-friendly" to us oldsters who are left to do all the chores. 

* CHUCAR PARTRIDGE HAVE HATCHED *

BIG PLANS ARE IN THE WORKS AT MOUNTAIN GLEN FARM TO CELEBRATE SPRING 2021!!!

BUSY!    BUSY!    BUSY!

WE ARE ADJUSTING OUR FOCUS TO ADD MORE OF A CONSERVATION-DRIVEN BENT TO OUR PRODUCTION AND SERVICES.

WE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT OUR LOCAL WILDLIFE POPULATION PARTICULARLY IN WINTER WHEN IT IS CRUCIAL BUT HAVE ALSO INSTITUTED SOME ADDITIONAL PREVENTATIVE METHODS TO PROTECT OUR FLOCKS FROM THE PREDATORS THAT HAVE RAVAGED US THE LAST COUPLE YEARS AND STILL ALLOW THEM THEIR HAPPY FREEDOM BUT WHICH WILL ALSO PREVENT OR AT LEAST DIMINISH UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL CONTACT WITH THESE PREDATORS.  WE HAVE A “LIVE AND LET LIVE” POLICY AND DO NOT BEGRUDGE OUR “FRIENDS” THE COYOTES (?), BEARS, MOUNTAIN LIONS ETC. THEIR RIGHT TO DO THEIR THING (AFTER ALL, THEY WERE HERE FIRST AND THEY ARE MOTHER NATURE’S CREATIONS TOO) BUT THEY MUST NOT ENGAGE MY BIRDS!   SO, WE ARE BEING EXTRA VIGILANT AND HAVE ADDED EXTRA FENCED AREAS TO KEEP THEM SAFE, IN ADDITION TO OUR “GUARDIAN” DOGS PATROLLING THE AREA.

BEGINNING IN MARCH 2021 WE WILL INTRODUCE A SIZEABLE BATCH OF NEW BABIES TO OUR FLOCKS AND BY MID-JUNE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO INTRODUCE TO YOUR OWN WOODED AREAS BEAUTIFULLY FEATHERED-OUT JUVENILE RING-NECK PHEASANTS AND CHUKAR PARTRIDGE.

  

MID-AUGUST BRINGS THE AVAILABILITY OF GAMBEL’S QUAIL (AN IDAHO RESIDENT), A VERY PRETTY AND QUIET BIRD THAT’S ENTERTAINING TO WATCH IN YOUR GARDEN.  THESE BEAUTIFUL GROUND BIRDS ARE PLEASING TO THE EYE AND A COLORFUL BACKDROP ADDITION TO YOUR LANDSCAPE.  (NOTE:  OUR NUMBERS WILL BE LIMITED SO IF YOU ARE INTERESTED OR JUST CURIOUS, DROP US A NOTE SO WE CAN RESERVE SOME FOR YOU OR ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS). 



OUR HONEY BEE ADVENTURE CONTINUES – THEY ARE CURRENTLY HIVED IN THE BARN (NEWLY REPAIRED SINCE LAST WINTER’S WINDSTORM DEBACLE) AND SEEM TO BE QUITE HAPPY UNTIL THEY GAIN THEIR SPRINGTIME FREEDOM PROBABLY MARCH (WEATHER COOPERATING).  WE LOOK FORWARD TO A HEALTHY HONEY CROP MID-AUGUST TIMEFRAME AS WELL.

WE ARE ADDING ENDANGERED HERITAGE BREEDS OF DUCKS AND CHICKENS TO OUR CURRENT FLOCKS OF LAYING BIRDS AND WE EXPECT TO SEE THEIR FIRST EGG-LAYING ADVENTURES BY SEPTEMBER.  WE ANTICIPATE A VARIETY OF COLORED EGGS FROM CREAMY WHITE TO TINTED TO VARIOUS SHADES OF BROWN.

WE ARE ALSO AVAILABLE TO ASSIST THOSE WHO DON’T HAVE THE TIME OR ENERGY OR SPACE TO ACCOMPLISH WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE AND THEREFORE WE ARE HAPPY TO RAISE CHICKS TO FEATHERING OUT OR LAYING AGE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, ADVISE ON BEEKEEPING, HIVE BUILDING OR ACTUAL HIVE CONSTRUCTION.

CAN’T WAIT TO GET STARTED!
