A common question! What is a good ratio of one rooster to how many hens? I also discuss changes in our Buff Orpington coop and how to deal with hens that are being mated. We are revisiting some old vid topics, but it’s critical to discuss the facts! Spring is here and Blu-Kote and Hen saddles help! And you get to meet “Stumpy”! Enjoy & thanks for watching! xo

Thanks for the info and sharing. Have a good morning!!!
I want Mr. Peaches !!!!!!!!!!! Do you rotate your chickens to prep your garden area ? Greetings from NC.
Good info!
Love these videos, thanks for sharing. Stumpy is cute too. lol.
Is there a way to remove the outer shell of the rooster's spurs? I know they can't be cut off . Thanks and love your videos!
Patara how do you find out which one of your hens are laying eggs?
BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
TOTALLY WITH U ! from puerto rico lol
What is the purple stuff on the chickens?
I feel you don't need a roster if you have a GREAT DOG….rosters are bad news .
Them are some beautiful girls.
we are raising our first group of chickens and love watching your videos!we love your style of the way you do your videos. you just talk and all of your info is very detailed. thankyou for that and we'll keep watching!
Love your channel learning a lot as we start our homestead lifestyle. We just got our first flock. do you find having mice problems from leftover feed/food left on the field? I thought our chickens would clean up the field by the end of the day but it hasnt been the case, now I worry about mice infestation Does your cat help with mice control? ty!
That is a good looking BUFF O rooster
Paul Newman is a worthy name! Oh la la
Patara…….um, I don't homestead, but I love learning and looking and listening about it through your eyes. Never lived on a farm, hence the question…….what's a hen saddle?
Just a question, will the chicken's feather grow back?
LOL – this appeared in my "Pop Music" recommended videos.
thank you
Great video. Best Disney song ever.
Buff Orpington‘s r the breed I want when I get chickens n I will take ur advice n get hen saddles
Stumpy is so cute!
ok so why not remove that rooster and leave less aggresive one in with herd?
The last of my Buff Roosters has went on home to where chickens go to rest ( the other side of the road I guess ? LOL)… but my favorite Buff Rooster took over mothering 3 chicks and finished raising them! Amazing ! He was the oldest rooster in the barn …such a sweet sweet thing to watch !
My buff male has a favorite hen she is very much wanting to be a mother it’s awesome she takes turns with two other hens sitting on eggs
Hello. Do you happen to sell any of your Buff Orpington eggs for hatching Thanks.
