    Good video.
    A few suggestions.
    If the rooster stays in the corner, it's a sign of him getting his tail whooped by other hens and roosters.
    The bug problem on the fruit trees, is it those brown bottles? If so, they dig into the ground. Chickens will eat them if you can put them in that area.
    Those bags, are awesome. I need to order some.
    Have a great day. Michael Waters

    • @BellasWhisperFarmstead
      @BellasWhisperFarmstead  2 місяці тому +1

      Hey Michael, Roo's issue is he was inside for months before coming out with the others. He was never around other chickens and when I moved him outside, he was in a separate cage. I can already tell he is getting more comfortable; he's moving away from the corner. lol. The silkie roosters aren't as aggressive as the bigger roo's, they aren't bullying him, never had the chance....... We have Japanese beetles and the bag a bug bags seems to be working as well as the tree and veggie bags. Recommend 100%!! @WaterFamilyHomestead

    Hi Kristin! Great update video full of tips. I hope you do get some apples from those trees! Let us know how the bags do at protecting the tomatoes and other veggies! Could the chicken waterer be elevated slightly, on cinder blocks or something? Obviously low enough so the chickens can still reach. Just a thought. I used to house/farm sit for a family that had chickens with the standard metal waterer but they had theirs elevated a little. Fun premiere!

    So sorry I missed your premiere, Kristen! Great video! As a couple others have mentioned, your chicken waterer needs to be raised higher. Most of the people I've seen who use that style of waterer have it up on top of the big concrete blocks as opposed to bricks. You may also try not putting the shavings so thick or so close. Beautiful ladies you have! What breeds are they and what color eggs do they lay? I want a few girls myself but I don't think the park would allow it despite being in the country.

    • @BellasWhisperFarmstead
      @BellasWhisperFarmstead  2 місяці тому

      Karma, thanks so much for visiting. The waterers are already raised and if it's raised too much the little ones won't be able to drink, we also do the deep bedding method in our coops.... We will just have to clean it out more.... The fluffy chickens are silkies, great starter chickens, very docile and friendly. 100% recommend!!! Their eggs are about half the size of a regular egg. Have a blessed day!

    Dang bugs and critters and deer stink! I sure hope your hard work pays off. Here’s the truth about my successes battling them so far :
    Only a high fence around the garden keeps the deer out. Literally nothing else will stop them ( except a rifle if the game warden isn’t watching 😂).
    When it comes to the bugs I try my best to keep several winter crops alive throughout the summer. Yes, they will go to seed and look horrible;however… the bugs seem to flock to them and much less damage to the crops I’m growing in spring and summer.
    When they eat all those up and start on the good crops, I try to use BT or Spinosad depending on what critter I am trying to specifically kill. As a last resort though, I use permethrin if necessary. I had to use it on my squash and zucchini twice, but it works. I wash the vegetables well before eating!
    I hope you have the best of luck.
