    I’m fixing to change the subject for a second,,, I have a wonderful husband but once upon a time that wasn’t the case. I’m so happy to see a man so considerate and be so much a gentleman to his wife!!! The world needs more men like you and my wonderful husband!!!
    People, women and young men both, need to see the care and thoughtfulness shown between the two of you. This is more than gardening. I love gardening, but I don’t know if y’all realize it but y’all are teaching more than you are intending. Keep it up. I think y’all are inspirational!!!

    I like that Nancy wears boots out on the farm. Between the critters and the sand, boots are necessary. I love the ceramic egg idea! Wow! Snake tongs! I've never seen pair up close. Think I'll buy one for when I'm down there putting my mom's place on the market (it's in the town next to yours). So exciting that you're ready to bring chickens into Chicken City! Looking forward to that video! Good health and happiness to you, and hugs and kissies for Bing Bing.

    Hey Hollis and Nancy 🤗
    Super great job... we love everything.. we still working on our chicken coop ... my hubby copy your water and feed station .. we were looking for something neat and easy to clean.. and the chicken to have something clean to walk on .. so when it raining or cold they wouldn’t be on the mud .. we were thinking about Square stepping stones for the floor and have the water and feed hanging .. but my hubby love your idea .. oh Nancy love your egg station .. 🥰
    Thanks for the video
    Take care

  • @chrisyoung732
    @chrisyoung732 Před 4 lety +2

    You might consider not keeping feed and water in the building to discourage vermin. Additionally you might consider some catch bins under the roosts to help cut cleaning frequency and for composting the chicken manure. One last thing would be to possibly add an automatic door to the best box area so they can enter there once the coop opens without you having to open the middle door also would make the trip to lay shorter allowing them to stay outside more with the large separation between roost and nest you will probably find that they will lay frequently in the roosting floor. Also with a large area you may also find that they will find nesting areas in the yard

  • @kathymc234
    @kathymc234 Před rokem +2

    That's an awesome coop. I always expect the best from you and Nancy. What did you decide to do about a chicken hospital? 🐔 + 🏥. Sometimes over or more get sick and they need to be segregated. Also, there are chicken meds and feeds that you store to keep safe. How many months worth of feed do you store? Would lived a follow up on your chicken coop. Take care.

    @WheepingWillow2 Před 4 lety +1

    Wow, what chicken would be happy to live there, they'll happily be popping those eggs out in no time lol lol. Well I've been studying but still don't have a coop. Passing something I have learned thus far. Since Father lets things sleep in winter, chickens don't lay much in winter, lots of folks make them go against nature forcing them to endure LIGHT in their roost wherein they'll keep laying which shortens their life span. Have you learned the decades old method yet on storing your eggs long term? Its called water glassing. Some homesteads are teaching it with pickling lime, one ounce per quart of water in a 5 gal bucket, they say some folks have had them last up to two years. The eggs of course cannot be washed, they need that bloom on them and no poo. tc ttyl Can't wait to see when you bring in the chickens. I'm so excited for you folks lol Can't wait till I get some too. How many are you getting? Hens for laying and meat birds? What kind did you choose and are you going into business by selling them cause thats a BIG place for them for just a hobby type thing. tc

    I would use the nipple waterers, the baby chicks pick that up very quickly, and they make such a mess
    Would you put another automatic door opener on the same time frame,so they would have access to the Egg Boxes??
    The fake eggs are great for teaching them where to lay the eggs and also they can't break into them.
    Can't wait to see the baby chicks. Hoping for a video on the types of chicks you and Nancy have pick out.
