I did wire roof for my first run but then I smartened up for run #2 and did a pitched corrugated metal roof

I had a chicken of 16 years old. She still laid 5 eggs. The oldest chicken I knew were 23 and 24.

Okay look lady, I'm loving the content. Just found the channel and you got yourself a fan. But if you continue with the annoying influencer voice where you crack your voice on the last word of your sentences and/or you stress the last word of your sentences then I'm out. Speaking like that is fake as hell and disingenuous.

It works great if your rain only comes from above. I don’t know about y’all, but we have sideways rain too… That said, before chicken math hit us hard and we only had 10 ladies in an enclosed run, we had a roof too, and it helped.

Nope I have hens that are 7 and almost 8 years old and still lay

Sand works better for me

Cannabis?

Straw is bedding, hay is feed. Something else to learn for you. I raise rabbits, I know this.

I bet it doesn’t keep the rats out!

jalapeños and habaneros are what i grow i just water with my hose once a day during the hot season

The eggs will figure themselves out

If the summer is very hot/sunny it might be a good idea to sow them between corn rows. I did so this year and it helped, though I didn't thin them, but I sowed them relatively sparsely. I mix the seeds with sand (like 5% seeds, 95% sand, seen this on youtube), because it helps sowing them a little more sparsely and provides a clear view of where I sowed. Got more than I know what to do with, same with red beet (also between corn rows). But I don't know how it works in other climate zones :)

Something the dam squirrels and rabbits won't eat. I got raided last night ate all the Cuce and jalapenos and the pumpkin vines 🥹 Halloween is cancelled.

Hi..i joint to suport❤❤ Have a luck😊

No one knows the benefits of weeds.

Awesome

This is a good idea if you live in an area that’s above sea level. Here where I am in Texas the ground gets so saturated by water and run off is terrible that the dirt/sand turn to mud despite the covered run.

Chicks must be past the age where paste up is an issue.

Never use Walnut anything, it is toxic.......it will kill tomatoes plants. I should know, I have walnut tree...next year tomatoes plants in buckets. Ground I believe is polluted, walnut, J sprays round up over the fence. So be careful where you get your wood chips 😊

Don't like the GMO versions that grow in only 8 weeks

Si en el baño

MONSTERS!!!!!!!!! Hahah jk fresh meat is fking awesome, so is living off government eyes!! Good on you!!

I tried this and my chickens threw all the straw out 😂. They just scratched it right through the fence

what a comforting and lovely way to explain this.. you’re not trapped, you’re anchored.

I love this method. I occasionally had to spray everything with bug spray for mite control but otherwise very happy with the results.

How do you finish the case of abroody hen?

Not for me thank you. I don't like my animals living in their own manure nor do I like the bad smell.

You dont butcher your own chickens!? wtf kinda independent lifestyle is this.

What butcher did you use. I asked at 3 different butcher shops and they refused to butcher chickens.

chicken. :) *explodes*

How many chick's did you get?

A sound I would say was a rapture comes from my neighbors yard I think it is a turkey.

I couldn’t cull my girls! That would be heart breaking they are named 😢

That has got to smell lovely ..

Do you ever wonder if they understand each other? And does she look at them and think “Wow, these chicks sure are funny looking?”

I would do deep but only to Aubrey 4 months worth. Not a chance I would clean it only once a year or 2 years . Wouldn’t that be fun cleaning it out ? You would have to get a ladder to get up to the floor or parachute in from the top .

I raised a Turkey once,now he’s 25…has no job

And then once they hit that water she's going to have a flip and Fit I know I watched it happen at our house

She's probably thinking, "Honestly, I didn't think I drank that much that night. I really don't remember the duck."😂😂😂 sorry I'm so bad I just had to.😂😂

Ducks have large families because few in the wild live there food for all the wild 1 with a bit of luck 1 will survive

Your eggs and chickens are still laying around in salmonella filled waste.

So do I.

That is some nitrogen rich compost . Use it sparingly

I love the deep litter method. But I can't do it anymore because of surgeries on my shoulders. I now just clean up every couple of months. I compost it for the garden.

BRILLANT🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

You can also lay down some wire mesh, layer on some cardboard that's been colonized with wine cap mycelium, lay down some more wire mesh, and cover with your usual bedding. It's a little extra work but you end up saving on bedding while still getting the same effect and plus your chickens can eat the mushrooms as snack when they fruit.

Do you butcher the old hens?

Dickens!

Love this! We are doing the same method!! 🐓🐔

Chickens are actually better Moms than ducks. Mother ducks rarely sit on their young anymore after hatching, and pretty much just allow them to go and do as they wish.
