So happy to have found this channel. My parents had chickens when we were young, however they took care of the ins and outs of it. Us kids were in charge of feeding and gathering the eggs, so I am learning all I can before I start my chicken adventure.
I always dip their beaks in water to teach them to drink as I set them in the brooder.
Annette Newton I do the same thing for all of my nephews and nieces ...... I stick their head under water for a minute or so ..... all of them are either great swimmers or will not go near a body of water.
Meyer hatchery is da bomb. Excellent birds and customer service.
I used to order chicks regularly and when the chirping came over my Bluetooth speaker my dog headed over with her ears perked up to see what was going on!
As I recall the hatchery I ordered from had a better selection and Meyer had better prices, they both had top notch reputations as far as customer service, bird vitality, and proper sexing.
Just love those little chicks 😃🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤😁
Awesome video. Love the chickies. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! Using all your great advice for my daughter’s FFA broilers ❤️🤍💙 from Texas
Hi Josh. Again super VLOG super interesting and of course super cute chicks 🐥
I got 300 chicks which was delivered by the rural postal carrier at 8am in the morning!!!! It was a very noisy ride in that little postal truck/Jeep. This was back in the early 70’s. In Huntsville Texas.
Been thinking bout chickens for eggs next year pretty cool
Stoney that rock trick also works good for feeding sugar water to your honey bees
Those ducks are growing fast!
My chicken story; When I was ten or twelve years old I kept a dozen chickens, mostly Reds. I set hens to make up for the ones I killed for meat. One morning I went to the coop as usual only to find every adult bird I had, dead. It took me several days to figure out what killed them. I had some pullets in with the hens and had some mash in one of the feeders for them. I killed the hens by forgetting to fill the water bottle. They got into the mash and strangled for lack of water. By the time I figured it out I had buried them wasting a lot of good meat. Lesson learned!!
Karen is the owner of Meyer Hatchery and she's a pretty good gal. I love baby chicks.
Glad I watched.
Third, who cares are we in high school .
Josh
Exciting video. Excellent content. Excellent editing. Great HD quality video playback. Love the farm love the Channel. Don't let them poop in the feeder lol . Yeah I would have to agree they are very cute I like the little chirping sounds. Are you doing more videos on their progress? I would imagine yes
Thank you for sharing.
Mike
Wooooooo
Hi..... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
Reminds me of the days when I was a young sprout. Mom and Dad would buy 200 chicks at a time. They were broilers and we would sell them for a $1.00 apiece. Yes, that would tell you how long ago that was. We done that every year for several years and would sell them all.
Shoot you can still buy them for $4.99 at the grocery store...it's most certainly not the cheap way to get your food
Raising any baby animal is rewarding
Cool video Can’t wait to see the next one with the next steps for the chicks
Thanks Josh for a “how-to” video. Those type videos are why I started watching UA-cam. Tim
Put marbles in the water dispenser will keep them from drowning and you can reuse them after washing.
Excellent
I had 7 chickens now I have 3 they are almost big enough to start laying eggs. Something is getting them but idk. I am looking forward to this series and I liked the video.
lance kippenbrock --Do you have any fox, skunk, or Opossum around your place? That's usually what gets them. Make sure they can have a safe place to roost at night and if you can lock them up even better.
Mark Mortensen they are in a big fenced in place. I didn’t ever see any feathers or chickens anywhere and they are too young to fly out
lance kippenbrock ---Well my next thought would be from above. Any Crows, Eagles or Hawks around you? If it is all wired in fence the only thing I would check to see if something has dug under the fence or is there a spot they can get through the wire? Good luck.
Racoons
Mark Mortensen I found a chickens bones in the fence today I thing a owl or something for the other 4. A rabbit lives with them and is still alive and hasn’t escaped so their is no holes.
There’s Josh....
....pickin Up chicks, and bringing them home.
..........what will Mrs Stoney Ridge say? 👀
WOOOOOO ! 🇺🇸
The beard is back!
Talkin Peeps!!
Goeden Dag josh ?
(ziet er goed uit zo)
looking good josh
Hollandduck zegt 'Hello' from Terneuzen in Zeeland in the Netherlands
Chicks in the mail...
Paul Martin am I the only one to pick up what you are putting down ??
Dude your channel is awesome! I'm the same age as you btw, but not even near as cool. . Good job, and keep it up!!!
Your production on these videos are great josh. I am still amazed they can be mailed knowing the us mail lol
chad harmon it's an interesting process, they must be mailed on hatching day, the nutrients they received in the egg will allow them to survive 3 days, so they are boxed, and if I recall right FedEx flies them to a regional hub, from there they are delivered to your local post office where you must pick them up at the office it's self. There are minimum chicks per corner to allow them to keep each other warm.
How long should you wait before you take them outside. Considering Temps are good.
Could you PLZZ post EVERYDAY!!!!😃😃
What is the size of the county line stock tank you used for your brooder? i Just ordered 100 cornish rock broilers to start raising meat for my family. You have been so much help through this process, i am following your entire process for my application here in Michigan. From the chicken truck to your processing methods and equipment and supply's, you seem like you know what you want and know what you're doing, thank you for being an inspiration for me and my family.
Looking forward to watching these little chicks grow up. To clean the brooder box I’m assuming you remove the chicks and put in clean material, right? Can’t think of an easier method. My wife and I get too attached to chicks and other farm animals, so we would make lousy farmers.
Great video, I’m really looking forward to this series as I’ve been thinking about getting some chickens but wasn’t sure how I wanted to go about getting them once we were ready to get chicks.
How do you know the difference between your meat and laying birds 🏴🏴🏴🏴
So, Mrs. Stoney Ridge doesn't mind when you spend time with other chicks? ;o)
How can I order some chicks form them ?
Whoa!!! How’d you do that???
Do it again!
haha
Woooooo!
WOOOOO!
Just went over to your channel and showed you some support! Woooooo!
look like tennis balls
My grandparents raised chickens without any fancy equipment, so why do you really need all that stuff? Seriously, not being a smarty pants.
+ Rick Fletcher....nothing 'fancy' about that. All he's doing is providing what the momma hen would. AND, cutting 'natural mortality' by a large %. I lose 2-4 chicks out of a hundred in a brooder. A hen can lose that out of 10.
Hey what about going live on UA-cam for 10-15 minutes each day for the next couple of weeks and let us just view the chicks ?
You will not have to narrate nor edit anything just put the camera on and let us view the chicks.
I have never seen a pink scoop what's up with that you are to big a strong to have a pink anything ha ha
Omg 1st view bru 😍😍🙃😉😃😶😂😅😆😆🤣
Thanks !
Dude your channel is awesome! I'm the same age as you btw, but not even near as cool. . Good job, and keep it up!!!
