That's $3.7 per chicken, which is more than the cost of a whole chicken here.

I bought a bag that didn't sprout. Also a bag of animal corn didnt sprout. Luckily i saved a bunch of seed last year.

that was an amazing video

Beautiful place. 😊

Your video is amazing but clearly your head that many times by now! Thank you!

Amazing video! Thanks for the information, you packed a whole book into less than 30 minutes!

I'd love to free range some chickens, but I see, no lie, 10 different hawks fly through my yard daily.

Here in Germany a scythe cost like 50€😅

I'm following this series of videos from the dispatching video, and I'm with others on asking for a chicken version!!!

Yes I would like to get more information on growing food for rabbits

Zero xxx cent,,,easy ..in yust good so4ound at sumer,,,the han alone rise UP 5 to 20 yungs,,free no antibootick steroids hormons or anyting,,,Only mother natore

Wouldn't it be easier to grow potatoes. Without killing innocent living breathing beings.

Chickens in 17-1800's were smaller and bread to be bigger and got broody and hatched more baby chicks today some breeds lay eggs but do not hatch eggs by breeding this behaviour out of them land race breeds and self sustainable as they will hatch their eggs and have chicks but take a time to molt hatch and raise young do not lay much in this time as the breeds that are bred not to be broody will lay more eggs consistently but take there eggs to put under a broody breed to hatch their egg as a variety of breeds with both behaviours is a good idea land race breeds are breeds that have developed by going feral in harsh conditions like the icelandic in extreme cold... Where they have adapted to their environment a easter egger is a common land race type breed and a mutt of colors and genetics not over inner bred which as other farm animals a hardier breed.. less trouble and care... Clean water and food and bedding compost and clean all manure as unclean environment cause illness and parasites have had poultry over 30 years and cried as a 5 year old had to bring my pet rooster to a neighbor's farm to be with other chickens ,he was one of two chicks with food coloring green and blue for Easter and was not expected to live to be a adult rooster but when he started crowing was told I had to let him live on a farm with other chickens so he could be happy so when I got older started raising my own flock and like getting fresh eggs and hatching chicks each season to replace the ones that get eaten or met a untimely end ,take 6-8 months chick hens to mature to lay eggs depending on the breed, small breeds and bantams are my favorite thow they are small and their eggs are too can fly and roost in trees...

would love to see a vermicompost video like this one you made about chickens. thanks a bunch for all the info!

what's a great video, thank you!!!

I thank you so much for your thoroughness I thank you for not showing your face and just sticking to the facts I'm working on raising chickens and goats on a island no predators but before I start I'm going to figure out how I can do it with the plants on the island this is knowledge that has been lost but we are regaining it thank you for your piece of the puzzle even if it's only a small piece you're one of the many many videos I've watched in many many people that have talked to because when the s*** hits the fan it's not about growing it's about using what we have what God has given us thanks again and God bless

I'm not always sure anoxic environments are best for vegetable roots. If you have mycelium growing it indicates a lack of oxygen. As we all know hydroponic specifically aeroponics grow the biggest most productive plants. and the last thing you want to see on a seedling is fungi/mold. IMO you dont want any mycelium in soil you are trying to grow in, wait for it to break down the remaining polysaccharides lignin and cellulose before attempting to grow in it.

Probably the best researched video i've ever watched on CZcams, I'm not even into chickens ...well done ✌

No you need macro/mesoporous carbon. Terra Preta. Burn a stack bury it, spread charcoal carbon in soil. Need to pee on it or put in animal stall first or will deplete soil. Needs to be charged.

This was packed full of great information. Great job 👍

Wow! You are an amazing young woman. Thanks for sharing all this and God bless you real good!

When freeranging if you reduce feed slightly they will forage more, also an automatic fly harvester can produce rediculous amounts of larvae daily

This is so informative and interesting! #theydidthemath

Great video. I appreciate the work and efforts put into this. Thanks.

Thank you

amazing vid, keep it up👍👍👍

You are amazingly efficiently teaching.

This is a fantastic video! Chockfull of great and useful Information.. we have short summers by us, but I do notice when free ranging.. my girls go through significantly less feed. We tend to let some of our open land grow wild for the pollenators.. and the chickens love to forage in there and they love to venture in the woods to feed as well. So while it is a welcome break in our feed costs it sadly doesn't last.. thanks again keep making great videos

Brilliant video. Thanks so much for making this!

Fantastic video. I'm getting into meat rabbits and doing my own forge feeding. I have half an acre in western Washington, so, tons of growth with all of the rain we get. It's really cool to know, set this half acre. In the middle of the city would be able to sustain a decent colony of rabbits. Meat at the grocery store is getting ridiculous. So a couple of family members and I decided let's do it, and I'm glad we're doing it. It's so enjoyable to raise these rabbits. And then know exactly what your food ate where it came from, etc. Thank you again for taking the time and effort to break down all this in one nice video. Good job, this is awesome! Couldn't tell that it was one of your first videos until after you said it near the end of your video here. I mean, obviously, keep going!

Incredible video, loved the attention to posting just about everything someone could possibly want to know (exclusing calculating fat/proteins, way too many variables there haha) Subscribed, looking forward to the rabbit info in the future 👍

Thank you for sharing this video with us. Lots of good info for how to be more self reliant. Love the ideas. Definitely saving this vid to my homestead playlist.

Can you do this same kind of video on ducks? We've got Golden 300s, found in the very northern climate, they survive winter much better and still give up about 300 eggs per bird

I have become convinced that the improvement we see near old wood is often due to its bio activity. On my place, I can see a difference in the growth of the plants that I plant. The same species, in rows progressively shrink the farther away from the wooded center that they get. It follows the blown leaf litter pattern. Certainly there is a marginal difference in fertility. I believe the radical difference that I am seeing is more than npk. I believe I am seeing a difference in bio activity too. Living soil vs dead soil. I like to add decomposing leaf litter and a little soil from the wood lot to improved planting holes elsewhere.

Very awesome video.❤

Merci

Awesome, thnx.

Love how in depth and organized this was!

metric it fam

If you buy bird seed qhen its on sale, you can plant tens of thousands of little seedlings , millet corn Amaranth sorghum sunflower. A bag of birdseed is an instant bio diverse farm

A LOT of great information here. Thank you for sharing!

My greatgranddaddy raised rabbits for meat (mother says it was really good - like dark meat chicken). Im thrilled to find these videos so I'm prepared to follow in his footsteps

This is the most useful video I've found on the matter. Well done, and thank you. Cheers from Spain.

Really beautifully laid out and helpful. Thank you so much!

Wow! My experience also planting beans. That dollar 1lb bag from the grocery store sprouts more than that 4 dollar seed packet with 20 seeds.

I'm a sweet but slightly impatient old gal with ADHD. I ❤️ your editing, video length and style that are straightforward and not filled with incessant silliness, dead air, etc. Dont be paranoid - even a little is fine but some creators could truly trim half of their airtime spent wasting their time and ours. Blessings from central Texas!

If you keep 14 hours of light they will lay all year ,someone told me that when I was raising pheasants, the fermenting is good knowledge when i raise some more birds i will try this.

Girl! This is an awesome video! I love number crunching, and have reached out in the past to several farmers at our local farmers market on what I’d need to grow in order to make my own chicken feed. Can you believe that none of them grow their own feed? They brushed it off saying it was too complicated… 😣 I enjoy calculating nutritional content though, so maybe I’m just uniquely wired to think about this type of thing. But you’ve done all the hard work for me! THANK YOU!🙏🏻 I just need to do some further digging on what grains to combine for the full spectrum of amino acids, as my family has to avoid wheat and corn because of allergies, and I’m hoping to only grow grains that we can eat as well, in order to utilize what I choose to grow to the fullest potential. I’ve dreamed my whole life about what I’d have to do in various areas in order to be totally self-reliant, knowing that even if you’re growing all your own food, your animals would still be reliant on the store if you’re not likewise growing their food. Anyway, this video is the stuff of fascination for me, so thank you again! And BTW, totally off topic, but your such a pretty sister! And no, I’m not weird, haha! Married for many years, but only sons and no daughters. It’s just my motto to never withhold a compliment, even to strangers.😊 Most of us science nerds tend to be plain Janes, haha! And throughout the video I’d imagined, well… someone who looks kinda like me! 😁 Boy mom here 🙋🏻‍♀️ but now that my sons are grown I’ve been interested lately in rekindling my girly side. You’re an inspiring lady! 👩‍🌾🐓🤓🌺

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing.
