Meet Treats for Chickens CEO + Founder, Dawn
With thousands as an audience, Dawn Russell "D.R." is well-recognized as the creative energy and flow, the bts of Treats for Chickens. This made Treats for Chickens one of the most popular makers of natural and healthy chicken treats and other poultry goods in the USA.
A three-generation chicken parent, Dawn has been around chickens most of her life. During her childhood, she helped with her grandmother's farm and guided her son with his 4H Poultry project. When working together with her son's 4H project, Dawn's love for chickens sparkled again!
With no money after leaving the law world, Dawn had to start from scratch during the Great Recession no less. Dawn raised her backyard flock in the former "Egg Basket of the World," Petaluma, California. But not as a hobby. This path was Dawn's lifestyle and business.
And since Treats for Chickens' establishment in 2009, Dawn began her journey in sharing her poultry innovations and lifestyle- on Treats for Chickens’ blog, social media (Facebook and Instagram), and yes, even local fair farmer’s market booths. The path was lonely since she was the very few that did chicken treats. But along the way, Dawn connected with great individuals such as poultry keepers, farmers, and USA suppliers.
For she wants to offer fellow pet poultry parents healthy treats, supplements, and herbal nesting box blends with organic and non-GMO ingredients. And through hard work, it became the first pet-chicken manufacturer certified organic. That old saying, “you are what you eat,” is applied to people. Then why not your pet chickens and fowls? This isn’t just a saying; it’s what Dawn and Treats for Chickens’ team do day in and day out.
Thank you for being part of Dawn’s chicken run of happiness and health.
We love organic
Choosing organic mean leaving artifical ingredients off your poultry's beak, bum, wings, and life. Preserving the environments and saying "No" to GMO's. Our certified organic and organic sourced ingredients are made with cultural and biological pratices that support the cycling of on-farn resources, promote ecological balance and conservative bio-diversity in accordance with USDA organic regulations.

It was interactive, informative & supportive. I learned about pest control, Food Do’s& don’t s and about too much calcium info. Vicki F.

Excellent
Dawn is very relatable. Down to earth. That’s truly what attracted me to the company to begin with. I feel like we could just go grab a drink by the coop and talk poop all day long 🤗 I did get two pages of information out of it. I love talking chickens and love to learn from other people. I liked the round table discussion. You can’t get that with Facebook groups. Thanks, Pam

Amazing.
I learned so much and things we already knew just confirmed we were on the right path. She made us feel very comfortable about our questions and concerns. The fact that she was available afterward for follow up questions was great. Thanks Kristin.

I liked all of it....
First Aid Kit info was super helpful and the pest information was helpful too.
Great info on what kinds of fresh foods they can and should not eat.
Body temperature information and temperature tolerances was very helpful. Thank you, Cindy C.

I absolutely loved Chicken School.
I absolutely loved Chicken School. This is my first time with chickens. I learned a lot and took lots of notes. I had not thought about a first aid kit. I will be blocking their nesting boxes beginning tonight.
The references you gave us are really helpful, especially the food ones. I already have the best pet sitter in the world who takes care of my chickens, dogs, cats, and even the feral cats I feed, but I will be revising my checklist.
I would attend Chicken School again. I am sure there are things I need to hear again and questions I will have in the future. Thank you for the class.
Thanks so much, Lee

A great time!
That was a great time and 2 hours flew by with ease. I could have kept talking but felt bad for the east coasters.
Thanks again for doing this, I would happily sign up for another. Thanks Kristin D.

Not only do my hens love this, but it makes the coop smell wonderful.

Special Surprise
My chickens are four years old and picky eaters unless it’s earth worms. They were incredibly interested in Molt Mender and ate it.

The girls love it!
The chicks get excited when I sprinkle “New Chicks In Town” in and around their food. Their foraging and scratching kicks in! I also feel good knowing they’re getting herbs and flowers in their diet and the brooder is getting a smell refresh. Great product!

Our chicks love these treats!
“Chick! Chick!” has been a really fun way to bond with my chicks. I say “chick chick chick” when I lay the treats and they come running! They have a great time scratching in it and eating it. All of my breeds enjoy!
