I hear that a lot. “Why make/raise your own food when you can go to the store and buy it easier?”
People don’t get it that 90% of the food in the store was not around a 100 years ago. Most food in the store is toxic food. If it isnt full of carcinogenic dyes, additives, fillers, and chemicals, it is void of any nutrients.
Self raised food also tastes better.
I agree....raising your own food also gives you much more respect for what it takes to raise and care for it...I don't care if it's a carrot or a lamb...you'll do everything you can to keep from wasting food if you put the work into raising it!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer one home grown tomato or cucumber should do it for most people.
Raised my first batch of 50 cornish crosses this summer. Your series on pasture raised chickens was a big help. I got a lot of great information from watching your videos. Thank you very much. I love knowing that my family is able to enjoy fresh farm raised chickens year around.
Great to hear Jeremy! Thanks so much...you let me know it's worth the work if I'm helping someone make good decisions
When we got our first pullets, our then eight year old daugher asked, "these chickens are for eggs, not legs, right?"
We laughed out loud.
Then when a couple of them developed large Combs I thought maybe we had a couple roosters. So then she asked, if they're not going to lay eggs, can we use them for legs?
She loves those chickens and she loves chicken...
by the way josh you are not fat you are a great big strong specimen of a young man !!
Thank you for these videos. I am currently in the middle of raising chickens for eggs for the first time and these videos are giving me ideas of what to do or how to achieve my goals of producing our own food. Next spring will be our start of raising our own meat birds.
Once again stoney very informitive. Thanks. WOOOO!
Thanks for the video homeboy, fresh eggs are the best man
"Loving life..." Till they're on your dinner plate lol.
All buff Orpington have the same voice hysterical.
Brilliant job ✌️
What a great idea the pvc chicken tractor. I have a heavy wooden one. I’m gonna build one like yours for next year. Thanks awesome channel
Glad to help
It's funny, first time I had fresh chicken, I thought there was something wrong with the meat.
Now, grocery store chicken is the strange taste.
Thanks for the info and my inner chuckle to myself about the different taste.
I honestly can't taste a difference, but it is nice knowing that your chickens have been kept in a clean place and fed natural food. Hard to put a price on that.
Always enjoy your vids , farm to table is where it’s at !!
Nice video thanks for showing 👌🇬🇧👍
People need a chicken head instead of a camera gimble mount because as he moves that chickens hwas look at its head. Its so stable
I LOVE Orpingtons! They are a great dual purpose bird! I have Lavender Orpingtons, and have had blues too. Good temperaments!
Beutifull bird i just ding to habe chiken like that i start to finish mi land to grow veg. And animals then hurican michael cam now i have to start over again but i watch you video and i do not want to give up your buddy the puerto rican hillbilly that you for that🙏 got bless you
Good information. Just one question, are any of those chickens for egg production? Don't know too much but Rhode Island Reds are what my dad raised for egg production. Usually got 50 per year.
When you harvest the birds do you keep all the giblets? and do you eat the guinea fowl too?
Hello mate, been following a while, really enjoying it.. one day I might be able to watch every video but unlikely! I would like to see where your birds roost.. apologies if it's already on a video , point me in the right direction if it is, thanks!
How well does your mobile pen hold up in the weather? My place is wide open so I gotta be sure to have something that has enough weight that the wind won’t blow it over
Love the chicken coop I want to build one for my farm
Getr done brotha!
Stores might be no more someday never know. Better to know how yo grow, raise, scavenge for all you need to survive. Keep it up brother whoooo!
Woooooo!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes, i sent you a mealmaker. I will look it up and see what breed it is 😂😂
Love the flags flying!!!!!!!
Darn yellow flag needs fixing though...you just reminded me lol
Plant larger deer food plot areas so you can pasture your bird on it as well as having deer.
Good video
Can you do a video on how to build that chicken tractor :)
it's been done...check out our everything chickens playlist...I'll build another one in about a month too!
💗 this video
So they don't lay eggs? I like the portable coop but have layers. Would it work? How to get the eggs is my question.?
At what age do you let your Keats loose? When you say you let them loose, do they ever leave your property?
Hey Josh you think you could send me the link where you show us how to make a PVC tractor thank you sir
With birds like this. How do you keep the mice and rats population down? (feed and poop attracting them)
Thanks
I'm trying Golden Comets this year for both egg and meat production. Can I use this mobile setup for both or is it primarily for the meat birds? Got any videos on egg birds? I'm about to mimic your mobile shed. I am in the middle of construction on a hoop house made of pvc, similar to greenhouse but wrapped 2/3 in wire and 1/3 in either clear plastic or white plastic if I can gind any...
I have used the Joel Salatin tractor concept to raise layers. Just requires additional nesting boxes made from plastic storage containers to keep weight down. I’m interested in your information about different nutrition value of pastured poultry. Please share the reference.
Read this book or get it on audio book...you'll get some good information: amzn.to/2Puh97H "Folks this aint normal" Joel Salatin
Josh, I keep hearing people say that bird raised at home are tough and chewy. Have you found that?
I saw in one of your other videos you had a coyote problem. have you ever thought of getting donkeys or llama they seem to keep them away here in mass thought it might help.
Thank you!
Folks,
You might want to visit Living Traditions Homestead to get a thorough comparison between the Cornish cross and the Ranger meat birds.
How do they get enough sunlight with the roof fully covered
My question to you is this: How much direct sunlight does a chicken need? Remember the sun isn't always at high noon in the sky. Even if I leave the doorway off the birds won't just lay in the sun..it would overheat them. So these birds can get direct sunlight at any hour of the day except when the sun is directly above them...they just move to the outer edge of the coop. If you've ever seen chickens in a coop on a hot summer day...they are most certainly not hanging out in the sun. These birds get more sunlight than any bird you've ever tasted. More exercise, more forage and more roughage. Hope that explains it. Better way to say it is ....if you've ever used a beach umbrella to keep the sun off ya...you know you've gotta move to follow the shadow of the umbrella throughout the day.
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I asked my questions because in the spring we will be moving to our own farm land in NC so I wanted to ask some one in my state thank you for you reply. No my sister has a farm and MA so I have had home grown chicken as a child.
great video as always!
meanwhile here in germany you can't even process your own animals, but have a butcher do it.. and also pay monthly fees on every animal each month or season..
That's Socialism for you.
Great job buddy
Cant wait til we do this next year! We have 5 kids under 9yo, I'm hoping to cut our chicken budget significantly. Im trying to figure out how to make an "auto waterer" like Joel Salatan as on his chxn tractors
Excellent video
Show your lawn where the coop was, I am just curious... I have had the same idea but have never actually done it and I want to see if the grass that grew back is more lush looking or is it obvious that the birds were on it weeks ago.
Do you keep your birds in that over night?
How often do you move it around
I would worry about what Coyotes would do to the pen in my area
Does the ground get too damp or do they have a place to roost ?
How many birds do you have
first
Birdy
Dirt does a body good Wooooo.
Correct me if I'm wrong here Josh, but it almost sounds like you're saying that pastured chicken doesn't taste like chicken. Or maybe you're saying grocery store chicken doesn't taste like chicken. Either way it makes me wonder what alligator actually does taste like.
LOL...well grocery store chicken has less vitamins and isn't quite the taste of a pastured bird.....well...it's about 1/2 the flavor and tenderness
My chickens when they hear my voice they know its egg collecting time. They hate me
We tried Guinea's and they didn't work on our farm,one attacked one of our girls
🤘💪👌♿
Whisper slaughter your making those birds nervous
People who take care of chickens are literally "chicken tenders". Haaaaa!
I can't believe the bigger chickens don't kill those smaller guineas.
I think they grew up together since babys no problem there!
All one big happy family...plus guineas are quicker lol
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I've got some white leghorns that still pick on my barred rocks. The barred rocks are bigger so I'm surprised they put up with it. Lol.
Hello $100 Truck
Home grown is better!
