I don't even have chickens, but I watched the entire video because it was so interesting. Thanks for the education. Stay curious my friends.
Hello from Topton…trying to find a Cherokee language shirt or hat but I've had no success. Any suggestions where to look while I'm here?
I have 5 Brody hens. They are hatching 8-15 chicks at a time. I have so many chicks right now I don’t know what to do with them all.
I have four hens two are great egg layers and the other two not so much . They are two different kinds so I chalk it up to that .
Patera, you have talked having a book about the old ways, could you please tell me again what the title and author is? Thank you so much for answering me, I have forgotten the name of it.
Very interesting!
Excellent video. I’ve had many, too many chickens, for years. Watch out for “chicken math”.
I have a wonderful black austrilope broody hen. We have no rooster so I replace her eggs with duck eggs and she hatches them out. She loves her ducklings and takes excellent care of them. I find the ducks grow up more calm and tame with a hen mama. So cute.
Is she an Australorp?
Thanks for the education.
Thie city girl really enjoyed this. I'm wondering how long the baby chicks stays with their mom before they leave or are taken from her?
That was a lot of good information. Thank you!
So how do you know what eggs to leave to be sat on, when you picking up daily eggs for eating? I don’t have chickens but I’ve picked up many eggs in my younger days. Didn’t consider they might should have been left.
I have a broody hen now – a year old and 2nd time broody. I don’t plan to grow my flock and don’t have a rooster. Should I let it run it’s course or try to break her broodiness ? Thanks for input
Is that a jersey giant or australop? Of all my ladies, they are the ones that go broody at least once a year.
I look forward to my chicks going thru this process…. learning something new every day!!
Great video!!!! Thank you.
My girl is broody but I only have hens….I'm not sure if I should try find fertilized eggs or just wait for it to pass. I don't want to discourage her broodiness because eventually I'll double my coop size and I want to try chicks but I can't….right now.
What a great idea. Thank you for sharing the tote brooder set up. Much better than what I've been using. We have a nice incubator, but I'll be the first to say that I get a far better hatch from my broody hens than I do in the fancy box. The chicks hatched by mom are way more healthy and thrive better than those hatched in the incubator. We are heavily dependent upon our chickens on the farm, so we use both methods, but those birds hatched by momma bird then to live and thrive better than the others. Again, thanks for sharing.
Our homestead has been under attack the last 2 nights 2 domestic pit bulls came on our property and chewed through a double fencing of twisted hog wire/chicken wire in 2 pens then our larger fence and killed our livestock had cages hanging 5 feet in air and they chewed the toes off rabbits please make video on fencing barriers as the owners of dogs quit feeding their dogs this will become everyone's problem
What the heck is candeling? You needed to show it.
Thank you so much for the video. We are just getting started with a very small flock, learning as we go.
