Chicken Math Is REAL! Did You Get A Big Enough Property For Homesteading?

- Chicken math is real guys and you need to ask yourself if the property you are getting is big enough for the type of homesteading you want to do. Many people are making the switch from city living to country dwelling but I think think there area some important questions you must ask yourself before making the leap. If you have already made the leap think about how you want to scale things and if your property can accommodate all the things you have dreamed up!

Great job putting this together Syd! Fantastic advice 💯❤❤
Thank you 🙏
I had 10 acres in SW Florida that turned to swamp land because developers stared developing around Mr ranch. I had hoped sea, chickens and goats. Swamp land is not good for animals because the stress from the wetness. After getting hit by two major hurricanes and I lost animals because of the flooding and the wind.
I sold out and moved to 40 acres of beautiful rolling hills with nice large pastures. We got hit by another hurricane. We had damage to all the animal shelters and trees.
I brought my horses and goats with me. I only had one chicken left because of predation, but my son sent four chickens with me, plus the former owner left most of his wild game hens. I now have rabbits, I plan on getting quail. I had a heat stroke that caused two brain bleeds so I have to really be careful not to get too hot. I also am not supposed to eat any red or fatty meat because of the brain bleeds. I can eat goat, any poultry, fish and wild meat.
But another thing people need to think about is the condition of the land. You have some really great advice, thank you.
Definitely! Know what’s around you and the terrain for sure !
❤ Sometime in the future I would find a good spot on the property for a pond and put some fish in it. At least 1 acre 2 if Mike's job pays good enough.
I had one in my front yard that was only 50'x60' but I put fish in it and some of them were 8 lbs to 12 lbs catfish.
The ducks loved it and they would learn to fly and come back to land in that small pond. It was fun watching them land too fast and too late for a good safe landing lol.
When they get older and better flyer perfect landing at 20 to 30 mph.
The would fly to my neighbors pond about 2 miles away and stay all day in his 3 acre pond but ALWAYS be back home by feeding time lol.
Very nice and informative video..thanks for sharing your knowledge. All the best for future 🙏
This was Amazing. Very Informative and well put together. You must have Prepared for a While. You and Mike make the Best training Videos.
Thank you so much !
Thank you for sharing such honest and informative advice for everyone aspiring to go down this path.There are so many videos that just show the warm and fuzzy aspect of working with animals. Good for you, there should be more of this content. Great respect to you and you family.
Thank you 🙏
This is informative. I learn something new. Im a proud subscriber
Syd, I have been enjoying the videos you guys put out for quite awhile now. I grew up on a farm and have my own mini farm now. I watched this video and learned a lot as a single woman owned a small farm. Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic ❤️
Thanks for the insight to living this lifestyle. Your Family is a Blessing. Take Care and GOD Bless You and Yours
Thank you 🙏
In some areas if you don't have a certain size you are not allowed to have animals make sure you check the area that you are looking at if you don't have 20 plus acres your not allowed to have animals and check what they consider a small farm because in some areas the tax base is really high if it's not considered ag
Very true ! Ag zoning definitely matters !
Great information Syd. I’m sure your advice will help a lot of people. Wish we could have more land but unfortunately here on Cape Cod there really isn’t a lot of acreage to buy and my husband loves the ocean so I enjoy watching you and I have to tell you I get so excited watching you grow. Thank you. God bless you all. Take care✌️🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much ❤️
It’s crazy how we think of Tupelo compared to my grandparents who grew up there in the 1920s. My granddaddy used to say both city limit signs were on the same post.
Ha ha right ! I’m sure in Elvis’ time it was very different
Sid you and your family are good stewards for homesteading love your content and god bless your family.
Thank you 🙏
Get one black Angus male and one female. You will never buy meat again . My brother who has a farm , and cattle. Has a truck. Butcher come out and will butcher and wrap all of the beef for the freezer. He has a mobile Truck with a roll out crane , and stainless tables to the butchering .
Great explanation Syd.
Thanks 😊
Great video, I homestead 160 acres and it's just big enough for my farming and sawmill operation to be self sufficient, now I'm trying to figure out how to build ponds for catfish farming.
Nice 👍🏼
You might get that DG that has all the stuff on pallets in the isle. Not put up on the shevels yet. Oh wait thats all of them. 😂😂😂
I learned so much from you and your husband and your daughter thank you
Hello Syd 🌺 Very good advice 👌
Syd culling I can do. But my wife won’t let me. So I have 20 eggs a day and then we give them to her Team members at her work. As for my cows until the last year we took them to a processing center.
Ha ha that’s chicken Mary right there ! I totally get taking a large bovine to a processor, but if you’ve got you know, goats or sheep or hogs doing that yourself is way more cost-effective
Excellent presentation Syd 👏 very informative and real Safety off !!❤❤
Thank you 🙏
the 3 of you are a great example of old school values.
Thank you 🙏
thank you for all the things to think about. Would love to do it but at my age and my partners age it is not possible so I live through all of you homesteaders.
And that is ok too ❤️
My grandparents were farmers in Michigan 100s of acres down by Rochester Hills, Sterling Heights was my great grandparents farm. We had 25 acres in Midland, 160 acres in clare county for hunting it had a blueberries marsh. We lived on the 25 acres, raised alot of different meat birds, chickens, pheasant,turkeys & ducks. We ate venison and did alot of fishing. Huge gardens we canned everything we could, 2 huge freezers. We bought our milk, cheeses, Jif 😂. Ww dug a pond it was 30 ft deep. Feed can get expensive but its worth it. I had to move to Arizona after i had heart surgery and am now 60 and no way able to start over. 😢😢❤ i miss my life in Michigan but id be dead if i stayed. ❤
You have great memories though ❤️
@@3MISSISSIPPI for sure.
This was one of the best informative shows , I've seen put out in a while. Farm life isn't for everyone off grid isn't for everyone and you basically taught a class on this ,I watch the family about every day there is one that doesn't have a clue he worries a lot of followers,I think or it's just me anyway enjoyed this program and hope you do more fyi
Thank you 🙏 I’m pretty sure we all worry about views and subs since this is part of our income 😂
Farming is American. All of the founding fathers were farmers. And they created this country
Very well done!
Syd you can call your place the Ponderosa
Awesome video Syd! It should be said that in regard to dispatching animals, you can do it. (pretty little Syd does!) It’s not easy at first but I always think about how people 100 years ago had to do it, or they ate a potato for supper. Challenge yourself because the way things are going.. Well, you know!
Ha ha thank you ! Yes 🙌🏼 if I can you can !
Great video, you have a great understanding of what it takes to be successful in life 👍
Thank you 🙏 and
Super pretty lady with great advice!
Great video guys
Great video.very informative
Thank you 🙏
Good video. People do not realize how hard but rewarding it is to raise your own meat and vegetables.
💯!
I LOVE your hair up! So cute! 😘
Oh thank you 🙏
Hope you body is feeling better 😊
HEY SYD MIKE FRANKIE I LOVE THE PROGRESS YOU’RE MAKING
Thank you so much ! Starting over again is hard and a lot of work but it’s been totally worth it.
Wow. Some great Vid clips from the past. I just want enough land to build a House and surround it with a moat. That way I can say who can or can't come to the front door.🙃😉🤔😎More like Duck Math for ya so far this year 🤣 If you see Dollar General Bags anywhere, you need to pick them up and get them in the Trash. Those are new DG Store seeds. 🤣
😂 that’s hilarious!
I learn a lot from watching your videos. Mike has a great green Thumb. And you are good at livestock.
It is a sure bet you never have to get groceries.
A question for you, how far apart and how deep do you plant your chickens??😅😅😅
Just til they stop clucking 😂
Are you guys going to get another pool? I miss the cookout pool side videos
Pools are expensive…. Likely not
👍🏻😎🇺🇸
.....you also have to be young enough, and hopefully have one or two kids that are interested in keeping it alive after you're gone
True … not something to start at 80
Well, you knocked that one out of the park and now i think I'm in love! 💘
So how do i find a "YOU"??? Just not easy to find these days.....keep up the good work. 😊
It’s probably hard to find many women who are as into this stuff but are single but they are out there ! Cruise tractor supply and I’ll bet you’ll find a few 😂
damn ggurl I leave for a year and I come back and you got fake lips and 100 piercings! STILL HOT THOUGH!!
I’ve always had those piercings and I haven’t done anything to my lips … that’s how they are .
@@3MISSISSIPPI even hotter then, that your lips are natural!~!!
