    What a fun update! I very much enjoy your videos as well as Mike's. You mentioned the warm afternoons. Our temps here in south Texas are staying maybe 88° at night and 110° to 120° each day. Every region has its good, the bad, and the way too hot or cold, I suppose. Peace and blessings to each of you. ♥

We used to have a few years ago. I will just have to enjoy the videos of yours! Your daughter does a great job taking videos! So great to see a nice country family!

    Does Henry know Johnny???? That’s so mint

    • @farmmom7140
      @farmmom7140  Před 4 lety

      Unfortunately no. They only saw each other as I replaced Johnny and put Henry in the coop. Johnny was getting very aggressive and mean with anyone that would step foot by the hen house or yard. He also was pretty mean with the hens. I found Henry from a customer at my work that was re-homing him. The older gentleman had hand raised and held Henry every night. He was just turning 9-10 months old so it was the perfect fit for our hen house! Thanks for watching!

      Good morning Margie. After looking and thinking that I had some favorites, I changed my mind. I love them all..... First choice was the all white chickens with a little black around there neck. They also have feathers on there feet. I haven't caught the hen in the act yet laying her egg. Maybe I need to put my camera in there for a day??? But the couple of eggs that I've gotten were definitely smaller than my older hens.

      Covid is just the distraction, while we struggle with masks or not, vaxx or not, employment or not our elected officials and bureaucrats behind the curtain are quietly removing our private property rights, our right to travel, our right to assemble, our ability to use cash money and bringing in digital id and digital currency, TOTAL ENSLAVEMENT ! Until the people wake up and you impact the World Economic Forum affiliated politicians and big businesses that run government and are supporting and driving the lock downs, nothing is going to change. Covid is the mechanism by which they are destroying the middle class and private/mom and pop businesses. Many of our government officials including Federal MP Chrystia Freeland, Federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh and BC Premier John Horgan (and i am sure there are many more) are affiliated with the World Economic Forum (you will own nothing and be happy). What little democracy we have left is in the process of being subverted. Our elections are supposed to "feel" organic and grassroots but these people are groomed and then presented for us to "elect" and then they magically do the opposite of what we want them to do.

      Hi Melissa, no I don't vaccinate my chicks. If I hatch them from my own incubator and they stay on our farm I don't feel the need to vaccinate. I also rotate my chickens in several chicken runs to keep bacteria and diseases away. (Letting areas rest and regrow is important for the overall health of birds and keeping bacteria away). Now if there were varieties I didn't have and had to purchase from a company or store, they'd be vaccinated. Thanks for watching Melissa.
