I agree, it is so important to spend time with your chickens. It's so rewarding to have them run to the door when they see you and jump on your shoulder or want to be held.
If I'd had coffee in my mouth, I would have sprayed it all over the living room with your 'using the bathroom in privacy' quip. TOO FUNNY! I always enjoy your vids, and being a fairly new chicken enthusiast, I'm always open to sensible advice, which you always offer. Thank you!
Good morning from Oklahoma. My chickens are my precious babies. I didn’t realize chicken math and they were tiny and adorable I bought over 30. I have had them way over a year now and I have not lost any to predators. I lost one egg bound, due to lack of knowledge. I really pay attention now. I have 6 separated from the flock due to bully issues. Girls getting beat up a few with injuries. So I am going to build a little run inside the run for the injured ones so they can live safe. I am always checking my new run. I haven’t moved the entire flock yet because the coop is an OK structure shed and it’s too hot this time of year to keep them inside that. So we have a commercial grade fencing and a run with a nesting box and roosting area, a swimming pool waters and I even have extra hardware cloth around the entire things so no predators can even reach in and grab my chickens. I see things trying to dig but they can’t get under. I added some sand and wood chips they love that. But we are in the country lots of predators. Chickens are so neat. Even my rooster is sweet. I pet mine talk to them and hold several of them and one loves to hang out in my lap. I truly enjoy the chickens. Another thing about them they make friendships and hang together with their buds. It’s so cute! I will be adding chcikens safe plants and herbs for the inside. They love the dust bathing. I enjoy your channel! Stay cool down there in Texas! Wendy❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
I have been watching your videos for a little over a year now, I love all of them! You are very helpful! I agree with all that you said in this one as well. We have 8 hens and 1 rooster, have had them since Aug 9, 2023 and we really enjoy them!
Great video. I am using 1/2 galvanized hardware cloth for their coop and run. I'm picking up my new flock on Saturday. I just finished their coop and run. This has been something I have wanted to do for years and now we are in the right place at the right time to get some hens.
chickens are amazing mine got me through 1 of the hardest things in life there my world you know ya chickens are spoiled when ya ask for stuff for your chickens for Christmas ect❤

When are you getting more birds ?
Honestly I don’t know. I am leaning towards seeing what happens weigh these two but probably not getting more at this house. ✌🏻❤️🐓
