You learn a lot raising chickens. I got my first broody hen and 10 eggs when I was about 10 years old in 1953. When the chickens started to hatch, I found enough soda bottles to sell for enough money to buy an addition 12 chickens from the the local feed store and when it was dark, I placed these under the hen and she accepted them. This small bantam hen raised 22 chicks. What did I learn? The love of a mother for babies is stronger than life.

I’m happy that you’re being positive about it but that seems like a really inconvenient gift, like “HAPPY EASTER, go do a bunch of research or the blood is on your hands” idk but me personally I’d be kinda pissed about it lol (I’d still keep them tho haha)

@bijou737 Год назад

Very informative. Many years ago I had a pair of ducks. If you ever want some fowl that make good pets, I'd encourage you to get a pair (a male and a female) of ducks. The males aren't aggressive and noisy like roosters. They will keep your gardens free of snails, slugs, and other pests, and they are actually a little affectionate. The female will lay eggs...they are good eating and make the fluffiest cake batter. Thanks for another great vid!😊

I have 8 hens. I ordered 15, one died. I sold 6. I had chickens probably 16-17 years ago so I'm relearning everything. But the egg prices at the beginning of the year got me back into chickens just as 2020 got me back into gardening.

@christian5707 Год назад

Once you get chickens you understand “chicken math”. I started with 15 last year, I just got another buff Brahma pullet a few months ago and I had a broody hen who hatched out 3 more chicks . Most of our flock is super friendly to the point they jump in our laps and take naps just like a lap dog. When I’m out working in the yard I generally have a them all around me plus 3 dogs and 2 cats. It saddens me to see how chickens are kept in commercial settings. I’ll never eat a store bought egg again for that reason. My flock which includes 1 rooster (who is a great guy, he takes the best care of his flock and even the new chicks. And friendly with people! ) is totally free range at the moment but after dealing with all the poop and of course the destruction to our garden,we will be constructing a fenced area for them in the fall. We will give them ample space to roam though because they are truly so happy when they free range and it kills me a little bit to take that from them. ❤

@littlehomesteadbigdreams 11 месяцев назад

That sounds awesome!

@suzanneosio7596 Год назад

Free feeders and waterers..ask at your local grocery store that has a bakery, for their empty 2 gal. icing buckets with lids and handles. Then cut holes just large enough for the chickens to be able to reach in to the bottom. Around the top of the sides. I put 5 evenly spaced .The reason is, you don’t want them to be able to get inside the bucket and kick the feed around, but still allows them to reach to the bottom. This method keeps all feed inside so none goes to waste. The same method works for waterers. You can just set them on the ground, or hang up inside a coop during the winter months. Saves feeding everyday if you fill them up and let them eat the feed down gradually.

@robine916 Год назад

Eggcellant video! Very concise and informative. I would like to mention you do need ventilation in the winter even in snowy/colder climates to prevent moisture build up. That can cause frostbite on toes and combs. Most find a bit of screening in a window up high on the wall helps to alleviate the issue.🥚🥚🥚

I worked with my city and they approved up to 6 hens but even though you have to build a predator proof coop/run, we also have to have a privacy fence either around them or the property to keep those runaway dogs from them. These rules came from the 2 councilwomen who stated" I know nothing about chickens". So here I sit jealous but happy for everyone who gets to keep them. I don't have 6K to convert my split rail fence to a privacy fence😢

@julzb6047 8 месяцев назад

Great starter vid! ❤️ We've had chickens for 2 years now, and I can't imagine life without them. They are SO much fun. And with the increase in egg prices, it's nice to have our own. PLUS - they help with so many other things in the garden - like free chicken manure, they help mix the compost pile, they help with pest control, and they eat our kitchen scraps. Plus - they're adorable and hilarious. One feeder we JUST switched to is a Treadle Feeder, because we have a mice issue. We're hoping this new feeder will be a little less messy, and reduce or eliminate the mice issue. A couple other things to consider - hens are NOT silent, by any means. If you haven't heard it, look up the "egg song". One thing to mention about the coop - make sure it's surrounded with sturdy material and predator proof - especially at night. Foxes, racoons, opossums, cats... etc. Additionally, we've had to learn to be our own home vet, so-to-speak. Bumble foot can be an issue, and will need to be addressed asap. I love to see other people's set-ups! Helps give us ideas for ours. Keep the chicken vidz comin'!

@davej.2761 7 месяцев назад

Could you please explain in more detail what to expect 'sound-wise' when raising chickens? Also, where do you live? Are chickens permitted in your area by the municipality?

@julzb6047 7 месяцев назад

@@davej.2761 Fortunately the "loudness" it's really only around the time a chicken lays an egg, but that can be spread out throughout the day. And not ALL our chickens sing the egg song... but most do. It's loud enough that we can hear it inside the house a little. We've talked to our surrounding neighbors about it, and they've all said it's not bad, and that they actually like hearing the chickens. (Hopefully they're not just being nice.) It's not as loud as a rooster, but it's not quiet either. Try looking up some RU-vid videos of the "egg song" - Hopefully that will give you some idea of how loud it is. Otherwise, their little clucks and peeps and purrs are pretty quiet, and pretty adorable, in my opinion. We live in a suburb outside Denver, Colorado. In our city, we don't have to have a permit, but we're restricted on the number we can have, and we're required to have a certain number of square feet of coop space per bird. And we're not allowed to have roosters. I know it's different everywhere, so you'll have to look up your local ordinances. Hope I covered all your questions. Good luck!!!

@terrisaunders7036 Год назад

We just bought 8 chicks about 1 month ago. My brother is building a coup ( hope it is ready soon). We are very excited about it both for the fresh eggs perspective but also my grandkids are hoping they will be pets too. I’m hoping to incorporate their waste in my garden but also I generally have home grown produce that goes to waste because we just can’t eat it fast enough. Win/win. They are getting too big now for the brooder now so they are going outside for most of the day. They are fun and definitely have different personalities.

@brittawrolson5936 Год назад

Another great, informative video! I raised chickens years ago (not since my husband passed) and they were fun. Living in northern Canada, they were raised as meat birds rather than egg layers. We raised 50 per season. The best tasting food. I would love to have egg laying hens, but it is just not economical to heat a building during the 6-7 months of winter.

@johnlord8337 Год назад

Stopping chickens (ducks and geese too) from flooding their nest area (or crawling into the water bowls), and spilling out all their food onto the ground - I found that (a sizeable investment - but long lasting) getting (Grainger ?) 2 of those fluorescent orange road pillars with their heavy black rubber bases. Get 2 inexpensive aluminum BUNDT cake pans. Adjust and cut out the bundt pan hole as needed - for properly fitting as a snug trough onto the vertical orange pillar. You can then lower down (chicks) or raise up (adults) the watering or seed troughs and save your water and seed expenses. As the chickens eventually are put into a pasture or a chicken yard - these same units can be used out there - until you finally get the chickens to peck their seed off the ground - but still use the watering trough for safe, secure, clean, and tidy watering of the flock. Ducklings and goslings will want to crawl into the water troughs so having the proper height for drinking and not being able to wing-and-leg climb up into the water trough, keeps the water clean.

@toddevans7262 Год назад

Holy Synchronicity Brian! I’m on Long Island and just spent my first full day with my 6 girls free ranging in the backyard while I was gardening. They’re the first chickens I have ever raised. They’re about 9 weeks old. 6 different breeds, all with very different chickenalities. I noticed that a lot of comments were about not being allowed to have chickens. If you really want to raise them, go have a face to face w/ the local authorities and ask if you can get a waiver to raise them. I think a lot of towns are considering allowing. I had to ask my direct neighbors if they would be okay. Both said yes, so I was good to go as long as nobody complains. The girls were all back in their coop on their own by late afternoon. I have a prefabricated coop similar to your grey example in the video except it’s red and white. I had a bunch of 1 1/2”thk x 2’w x 5’ long bluestone slabs laying around and set them around the coop perimeter to prevent predators from digging in. The slabs are so heavy, I can hardly move them. Raccoons, cats are nighttime predators that I worry about. Hawks are a daytime concern. My yard is fenced in but not impenetrable.

@littlehomesteadbigdreams 11 месяцев назад

I currently have 10 Cochins in a brooder, (I am a first timer with chickens)5 weeks old. Coop is ready, I built it myself. I purchased a chicken run from Amazon, 12x9 and am upgrading the fencing around it to make it predator proof. I’m just waiting for the chicks to have all their feathers, I figure it will be about 2 weeks from now. From everything I have read and watched the number one thing is making their coop and yard predator proof. The food and water are easy. I live outside Atlanta and we have almost every predator, coyotes, foxes, opossums, raccoons, snakes, owls, hawks… And they all want to eat chickens.

@littlehomesteadbigdreams 11 месяцев назад

LOVED this video - you KISSed it really well. It reminded me of when I was able to have chickens - life situation has changed :O). My husband built a passive solar salt-box coup from industrial scraps from a scrap yard, so, next to nothing. We didn't have access to the pine shavings but had lots of hay and I actually didn't mind cleaning out the coup every few weeks - the decomposition helped during the winter months too - minus 40F :O) I love the way you summed up the environmental and ecological advantages, not just those eggier tasting eggs with yolks that made my lemon meringue pies look like I'd used food colouring :O) You summed up and kept everything simple, cheap and fun, and......get one of the most complete foods out of it all. The chicks shared a porch off the living room, our children were pretty young then - they loved the experience. Thanks - watch no matter what you're sharing. You know your stuff with fact and experience based information and present it so well. Take care, keep it up!!

So I’ve raise now 3 batch of chicks and they are like kids. Your first kid you do everything someone tells you to do. The second batch you try and test what “experts tell you”. And third batch after 3 weeks heat lamp totally gone. But they do huddle together at night. I would say after they start actually growing feathers you can start getting g rid of the heat lamp as long as you have 5 or more chicks to huddle together
