North Carolina mom joins daughter to work at notorious Chicken Ranch brothel near Las Vegas

A North Carolina farm mom is trading her muck boots for stilettos — and is joining her daughter to work at a notorious Nevada brothel.

Loralie Grey, 44, moved to the Silver State in March to be closer to her daughter, Rylie Grey, 25. Unsure of what to do for money, Rylie suggested her mother join her as a courtesan at the Chicken Ranch, a licensed brothel 60 miles west of Las Vegas.

The mother-daughter combination is a first for the house of ill repute, according to COO Will Paccione, and he expects them to be a hit.

“After looking at the job market here and such, I decided I was ready for brothel work,” Loralie told The Post. “The decision was motivated by money, but I also enjoy the type of work.” 

Loralie said she saw her first client at the brothel last week — a local man in his 60s.

“He was such a sweetheart,” Grey said. “I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.”

The mother and daughter are amenable to working together at the brothel, which was featured in “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,” a 1978 Broadway musical and subsequent film starring Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds. But Rylie is comfortable going further than her mom.

“I feel like we could do [nude] massages together,” Loralie said. “I don’t know that I can watch my daughter with somebody. I think I would need to leave the room at that point.”

Rylie, on the other hand, said she’s “been in the business long enough to where I can make it like not as awkward for us to just be me and her naked in the same room rather than me and her having to touch each other.”

Regardless of what they’re hired to do together, it will come at a hefty price.

“Legally, we cannot put numbers out there,” Rylie said. “But we can say that every courtesan makes her own prices and can legally make her own prices.” Loosely the numbers start at $500 and go up to six figures depending on the services rendered and the amount of time.

Former “Hollywood Madam” Heidi Fleiss said she’s not a fan of a mother-daughter tagteam.

“It’s fine if people do that,” Fleiss said. “Personally it doesn’t just sit well with me.”

Even a naked massage crosses a line for her.

“I think it’s weird,” said Fleiss, who became infamous in the 1990s when she was arrested for pimping out high-profile call girls to A-listers, such as Charlie Sheen. “Why do you need to do it with your parent?” 

Both Greys were not new to the world’s oldest profession when starting at the Chicken Ranch. Rylie, who has a GED, was an illegal sex worker in North Carolina and Loralie, armed with an associate’s degree, claimed she has traded sex for professional services.

The arrangement allowed Loralie to be a waitress and “still able to be a full-time parent,” she said. “And the attorney helped support us so that I was able to do that for 13 years.”

After a lifetime of what Loralie called “dead-end jobs” and “hustling,” she is content to be a sex worker at Chicken Ranch, where the women stay on site working in one-week increments.

When asked what she is looking forward to at the job, Loralie said: “If you’d have asked that before I started I would’ve said sex and money. Now, being around strong women, I can learn so much from the ladies there. I am so impressed with each of them and what they are doing in their lives outside of the ranch.”
