Love ya & th4 familk
Ruby is one of my all time favorite characters in one of my all time favorite movies. Thanks for the lessons!
I feel ya with the old rooster…I have an 11 year old hen that lost ALL her feathers this summer every day we expected to find her dead she was still acting fine maybe isolating a little. Fast forward to October she is fully feathered and doing fine, even lays an egg every now and then. Chickens are amazing!
Thanks for sharing your stars with us. I am currently flockless and hoping to restart in Spring. Would love to know more about how you keep more than 1 roo. Are there separate flocks?
Had a bird farm years back. Miss it. Love all the feathery critters.
You are right. They become family.
Just recently discovered you, when you put out the weak man video. Trying really hard to make it without a man, now that he's left. Started a you tube channel to try to document, teach, and inspire. Yours is impressive. Thanks.
Believe it or not, I had a medical doctor ask me if it was required to have a rooster to have fertilized eggs. SMH. A MEDICAL DOCTOR!!!!!
I have 8 roosters and I adore my boys. They are all very docile.
Never again
Loved this!❤️
Excellent information thanks for sharing
♥️♥️
Seems this discussion applies to human society as well? And, we have sort of “butchered too many of our Roosters”? If ya catch my meaning. Protectors are not docile and meek, and they don’t take well to being “handled”.
I have over 20 silkies, and 20 different breeds of chickens. I had four silkie roosters. This past summer, I lost my favorite silkie rooster, Sammie, to a hawk. Sammie lost his life cause he was protecting one of the Easter Eggers. He was such a sweet boy to me and even let me hold him once in awhile. But his Legacy lives on, I have one of his sons, who looks so much like him!
Chickens be courtin' lol
Nice flock of chickens. .they all seem so healthy and content.
My rooster is a perfect gentleman. He’s never done anything to us humans.
Can you share your chicken feed? Like what brand or do you mix it yourself. I tried to mix ours with different grains ..we live in SW Colorado so it's cold .your girls look so healthy .
As the old joke goes….Why do hens run from roosters? To keep the other hens from thinking she's easy.
With all that is going on today
Someone needs to tell n show people how to prepare our animals for whats coming… How can we prepare for our animals.
Looked up the Great Appalachian Homesteading Conference and your pic of the facebook page shows 2020. When will the next conference be?
Adore your videos! I have a few questions:
1. I noticed you mentioned it is ideal to keep 1 rooster to 14 hens and at least 2 roosters for your flock in general. For people who are just starting out and are interested in keeping a small flock initially, what would you recommend?
2. My area is very high in predator pressure so I will likely have to keep the chickens in the run 90% of the time. I have plans on providing them continuous entertainment throughout their time in the coop, but will this increase the risk of a rooster becoming more aggressive?
3. Finally, is there a breed of rooster you have generally found to be less aggressive and you would recommend for first timers?
