I love that you communicate with your chickens. They might not understand the words but they understand the vibrational energy. Great video. What a beautiful family of hens. Thank you so much.
Good video, you need to get a few Welsummers next, and a couple birds that lay white eggs. Not only is white a color too, but having some in your basket will make the other colors pop.
Nice video with lots of good information and scenery. Well edited with no rambling (like so many other RU-vid channels) and very articulate spokesperson. I’m subscribing.

i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my login password. I love any assistance you can offer me!
@Arturo Khari thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I talk to my chickens and they cluck right back! Thank you for all the helpful info! Love being a chicken momma, even if I only have a fraction of what you have. I want more though! Just gotta convince the hubby lol!
Dude, this was such a good video. Thanks for this! Got a good laugh when you said “excuse me” to the hen and even commented on it with that text in the video! 😂
So i just got my first chicks and got a good sized coop, and run. The chicks are in the house with us for a couple more weeks. We got a black copper from a very good breeder (i hope its a girl) and two olive eggers, two speckled sussex (light sussex is my favorite but all the breeders we found were done breeding for the year) so instead i got two light brahmas, and two salmon faverolles, and two cream legbars
Thank you so much. I'm trying to do my research so that I will have the chickens I want to satisfy my goals for 2020. This video and your channel are great.
@@Cursed_Toast are you merely replying to my comment. It’s obvious you take a look at the time-stamp, you’ll see I was commenting because the creator put in a subtitle apologizing to the chicken. I’m setting up to build a chicken coop for eggs & meat to feed my family. Therefore, I don’t understand the hostility towards my comment 🤨
This video is incredible! I just found you on Instagram and clicked the link when you pointed it out. Please keep these quality content filled videos coming. I’m really getting into chickens-
its very nice egg ,,,very beautiful color where is that place sir i hope ihad that breede too ,,,here in the philippines i dont see like that why iwant checkin breed i love it thank you sir
I have an Olive egger whose egg color changed from olive to a mint green also I have an Easter egger whose egg color changed from light blue to almost white. They are 2 years old, not sure what's going on maybe the feed? Is this normal?
Appreciate the information. Getting 15 french black copper marans on April 8th this year. Looking forward to getting those eggs. I wanted black jersey giants, but wife didn't want a near turkey sized flock of hens with a couple roosters. Comprises, am I right. ✅️
How would I go about looking for the breeds of chickens I want if I'm avoiding hatcheries? My first flock I bought my chickens from Murdoch's and Tractor supply. They didn't have many options for breed and this will be my second go around with chickens so I know what breeds I want but know what the best way to get them is.
I would suggest researching reputable small scale breeders online or contacting chicken breeders associations. Another idea that comes to mind is to attend a poultry show and make connections with breeders there.
Or you could string a tarp over the first ten feet out the front of the coop and the snow won’t be on the ground there and you won’t have to waste the hay or straw….
Local feed stores (verify which farm they get from, some are less reliable than others, selling americaunas as Araucanas and such)…. You can read reviews about the originating farm online….. Or order online from www.mcmurrayhatchery.com/index.html
Aloha Derek....I was just cruising through the messages and saw that your question hadn't been answered. I used to raise different breeds of chickens. Still have quite a few running wild in my neighborhood here on Maui.To answer your question........If you have an Americauna that lays a light blue, light green or olive egg, and you cross it with a brown egg layer, you're gonna get light to dark olive colors. The light blue/light green crosses will be a light olive color. And the olive/brown cross will be a darker olive.
Really sucks that out of these only the Aracuna in New Zealand will give you a blue egg but then they have been breed so much it's hard to get a true blue one too most are light blue, green or olive. Can't get some of these varieties either and ones we do have the colour has been breed out of them by mixing too much or is weak. Small country with no imports allowed, only a few breeds but hundreds of chicken owners so easy to do if your not wanting interbred chickens sadly. Even my Aracuna roo has a mix flock to mate with lol so will all be easter egger offspring 😅
