    This is so helpful and inspiring! We’re doing the same for our family. More and more people are getting sick and more and more people are growing their own food. This is the way it should be! Grateful from Canada

    I will be searching for land in about a week, in my new state to be able to start my new homestead. I hope to one day have a processing area as nice as yours. Thank you for this video & helping others who can't grow their own healthy meat.

    @kalinbankov9737 Před měsícem

    Hello! If there are long periods of rain, for example 4-5 days, and the pasture is soaked, how do we keep the chickens from getting wet and sick while in the chicken tracktor? If we don't have a dry shed built nearby, is there a solution related to the construction of the chicken tracktor?

    kinda think that the stress chickens are put through by industrial chicken farming poisons the meat.

    @mateoleon524 Před 11 měsíci

    Dude been a farmer is a huge job for very little REWARD! thank god the government subsidies this stuff. Otherwise besides the passion of the farmers i dont see why else would you want to do it

  • @charlesbelser7249
    @charlesbelser7249 Před rokem

    If they have fresh pasture all the time , why do you have to give them all that feed? Wild birds don't get all that corn /. grain etc but eat worms, insects, some seeds that they may find and grass . Just trying to educate myself to see if this is worth it. The price of feed is obscene any more.

    • @spoolsandbobbins
      @spoolsandbobbins Před 8 měsíci

      They still need at least 16% protein, calcium and other nutrients grass can’t give them…

  • @alinalemanska2029
    @alinalemanska2029 Před 11 měsíci

    I want the chickens to go without cages.

      And so do the hawks, raccoons, and coyotes.

  • @EmilyMSmith93

    Is that chicken still ALIVE while you do the scalding and plucking and cutting it up?! Why don't you kill it first???

    • @jbnnm657
      @jbnnm657 Před rokem +1

      They kill it first of course. They don't show the kill cone part in this video I don't think.

  • @cobbvd
    @cobbvd Před rokem +1

    And how many birds can you raise like this? A few or a dozen thousand a year? It's not a business, it's just a hobby and nothing more. You just have to be happy if the neighbors don't complain that you're polluting the environment and the air. If all birds were raised like this, we would only see them on the table during the holidays. And for several times higher price than now.

      You must live in a city… this is the way forward. It’s becoming very popular again and you CAN very well make a living from it.
