About Us: We are Alex and Elaina, a couple in our mid 20s who are currently living on the 3-acre farm in southern Pennsylvania where Alex grew up. We have a garden, backyard chickens, and build or fix anything that we need to. We still work corporate day jobs, but are working to eventually leave the 9-5 lifestyle in favor of a self-built, debt-free, homestead on 6 acres nearby.
Something that differentiates us from other UA-cam homestead channels is our transparency on the cost of our projects - there is usually a breakdown right in the description!

Oh lord, thank you. New chicken mom going into my 2nd week and it seems there are a hundred ways to do things and so many videos complicate things. Easy clean up & yes!! I have a dust pan (something else I don’t have to buy!)
Thank you for the help!
You're so right! There are so many different opinions on the internet, it can be overwhelming. I hope you find some good tips from this series! Best of luck raising the new little ones :)

We've had our chicks for 1 week now and I've been using your method for cleaning their brooder every day. Works fantastic and there's been zero odor!❤ Thanks again for some really great info!!

We are glad you found it to be helpful!
how often do you clean the pine shavings and put new shavings down? daily or weekly?
Decent pallets work nicely as long as you leave them whole, I've seen some who pry all the boards off and that looks like no fun. Cheers!
