I love the Freedom Rangers. We grow to 12 weeks and average 6 1/2 lbs fully processed. The cost is under $3 / lb. I want to try Delaware BROILERS to see if they do well as a true dual purpose that can, hopefully, reproduce true to kind by keeping the largest ones for breeding.

the regular Delaware is only good as a slow cooked bird for soup, not intended to be a broiler.

This is an awesome video Mikel!! Thanks for sharing. I enjoy following along while working in my mechanic shop here in Wyoming.

Just what I needed today I lost my dad when I was 14 I'm 39 now and I so wish to be with him hearing this beautiful song made me cry I think this was his sign to me as thisbwas first thing that came up on my page. Thank u xx

🙋🏻‍♀️ I’ll be first in line to buy chicken from you!

Love how you’ve repurposed the barn!!

This made me smile lol.

Glory be! "Saving souls for supper!" 🤣😎👍🙏❤️

Though I’ll never have the opportunity to homestead, that way of living is dear to my heart. I’ll be content to vicariously experience it through your videos - thank you so much for sharing the process ❤️

Awesome video, Mikel. Looking forward to the next (and the next and the next...).

Dude... crushing the story telling game! Well done!

Another great video... thanks for sharing... you are learning very quickly and becoming a natural at raising your own birds... I look forward to the next video... keep up the good work.

I've been there to...sober since 2016. God bless you Mikel <3

Look forward to seeing your video series. Coming to Rory's Homestead Festival in June, look forward to seeing you. Going to place an order!

This is great work - will def be tuning in!

Living in California prevents me from ordering chickens or participating in workshops but I’m thrilled to be watching your upcoming videos and am supporting your endeavors in spirit 🐓🐓🐓

Nice story! I'll be watching.

This guy has it easy because he was born with that beard, us that can't grow a beard won't ever be able to raise more than 4 chickens.

Good video. Been trying to decide between ranger and Delaware's

Love this video... you will do great Mikel... you have so much passion and determination... and a beautiful family too... thanks for another great video.

Yessss!!!!!

You sure upped your game! I don't think you will fowl! Lol😅😂😂

Fun! Good luck!

Thank y’all for watching 😊

He's so doggone darlin'.

I seriously can't watch this enough. I pray God blesses you for making this Mikel and that it reaches the lost and hurting people AND that they can turn their lives around like you, and EVEN I have. In Jesus' mighty name and for His glory. Amen.

Hallelujah Mikel! Absolutely beautiful.

Mikel, you are doing an amazing job... you are a natural... you have inspired me... I am listening to your story and you are a very good story teller.

I am greatly enjoying all of your video's... I cannot believe more people have not liked, subscribed or commented on your video's.. I wish I would have found your channel sooner... I know you're taking time off from this but I do hope you come back... your video's and stories have touched my heart... thank you xo

I just found you, I follow your uncle Rory... I'm going through all of your videos and I am loving all of them... you have the sweetest family ever... and I want some of your mom's breakfast ☺

Was harvesting e4asier on your back? I assume youd have a great harvest overhead

I've watched this video a few times because it comes through with great feeling. I'm adding to my 'favs of others' playlist because it is so powerful. Hope to see more videos from you soon.

Love my Delawares. Great temperament, non aggressive roosters, egg laying machines, start laying sooner. There is also a Delaware broiler that is even larger.

1. Something that same size labeled "garden trellis"would've cost a fortune 2. It will last forever 3. You can grow something new & different on it every season, yet still not have tried everything 4. Home grown taste and variety doesn't even compare to store bought... Definitely worth every penny.

Those Red Rangers don't look right at all. I've had Freedom Rangers once and Red Rangers once; the FRs grew similar to Cornish, as they had the gene mixed in with about 3 other heritage breeds. The Red Rangers were actually MMs big red broilers. They were bad, but not as bad as your RRs. Only half of mine looked like a normal bird. Yours look like plain old Road Island Reds. I was lucky to get 3.5-4lb carcasses @ 8-9 weeks, and those were the roos.

Delawares are a established breed, they will breed true. Rangers are a hybrid, they will not breed true.

The color grade is insane dude!
