EVERYTHING on Raising CHICKS to Egg Laying HENS - Chick Brooder to Chicken Coop for Beginners

Nice information. Thank you

@bockbockbouquet - we have a situation with a hen that went broody then due to one of her flock mates attacking her, we were forced to remove broody, and built her a coop of her own, right next to the other run so they can all see each other through the wire fence. We don't have roosters, only the 5 hens who were raised together. She wants to be a mama badly, 6 months into the situation, she still looks in the nesting box and does the little clucking sounds. We are thinking of putting ceramic eggs under her in the spring, then ordering 3 or 4 newly hatched pullets from a hatchery and putting them under her one night. Do you think this will succeed? I guess the worst that can happen is she will kill the babies, but it's a risk we are willing to take. Clearly, she will never be able to go in with her original "sisters," so we're hoping to create her own flock this way.

,wow !!!!!! I read approx 32 books on chicken rearing and studied. You did 1 video that covered every single item !!!!! If not already , you need to write a book. Gratefully, I already knew your info but it was refreshing that you covered it sooooo fast. Wonderful job !!! I'm amazed

I hope you got a chance to breath after this video :) Seriously though, a lot of great info, thank you!

Great job

I’ve never bought baby chicks but I can’t wait to hatch my Brahma chicks in spring 2024!!!!! So this vid is helpful for the future wish me luck!

wow , take it easy, are there also tickets for speaking quickly? :D

WOW!! Jam packed with great info. I will rewatch I am certain! Thanks!

I have a crested cream legbar that is a year old and was laying consistently for many months. Then she all of a sudden stopped laying. She is just as active as ever, she forages, and is in good health. She doesnt act sluggish or isolate herself she stays with the flock as always. She's not eggbound. She goes in the nesting box once in a while but never lays an egg. We have searched the grounds but have not found any other place she might lay. Her eggs are blue so they are easy to see. But she used to lay an egg at least every other day. We've We been raising chickens for 10 years and have never had this happen. It's been almost 4 months since she has layed an egg. She's been normal in every other way. Thoughts?

Thank you so much for this amazing video. We are brand new chicken owners as of a week ago and we have five pallets that are 11 weeks old approximately today. And they went into their coop for the very first time by themselves last night which was so exciting and two of them have started roosting on the roosting bars. My question is and I searched for a video that you may have had about this but I couldn’t find one. Is when do I open the nesting boxes right now we’ve been advised to keep the nesting boxes closed.

What is best brooding temperature for chicks?. And for how many days we kept chicks in brooding?. In starting days chicks are cold blooded and later warm blooded and can maintain their body temperature. Chicken dont have sweating glands and also they dont have taste buds but they can smell. Chicken love to eat light color especially yellow color feed grain in preference 😊😊😊❤❤❤

WHEW! I'm having information overload. 😁 Thank you so much for putting ALL this information together. It COULD NOT have been easy making this video, but we ALL appreciate it TREMENDOUSLY!

Awesome video thanks!

Masham Allah
Very beautiful video and very helpful ❤

She talks real fast

praying each day old Gallup study resulted in a rate of divorce less than 1%. google ‘divorce 1% 1153’ to see references to the study

Best chicken waterer is a rabbit watering bottle. No mess and always clean water.

Thanks!

Thank you so much for your videos. You are so well educated and explain everything in a way that I feel very comfortable.

Just ordered the hemp bedding. Thanks for the great info and the discount code!

What’s the purpose of having a rooster if u don’t need a rooster to procreate

We actually supplemented wild bird seed into our chicks feed at around 2 months and have been giving them fruits and vegetables since week 1. They are outside now for the first week, temps at night around 50F but I'm constantly running out and checking on them. I switched them from the lamp to the heat plate and they had no idea where they were supposed to get warm until I showed them.

So informative thank you so much God bless you and yours.

Great video for information, torturous to listen to though. Woman..... take a breath.

I use a dog kennel

Just subscribed I love ur videos I’m raising my first batch of chickens and ducks but I’m having trouble with my chicks there baby hair losing hair then bedding got wet and I can’t get there hairs to fluff out

Boom, Your farm and chicks are awesome 😊😊

I am a newbe, and i sincerely enjoy how you go into detail about these chicken lessons, Thank you so much for all this info 🥰

What type of chicken laid that brown/cream speckled egg? Also the taupe colored egg? I’ve never seen those!

For a chicken raising rookie like me this was fantastic. She's an encyclopedia of chicken raising knowledge. I subscribed. But take a breath every few minutes.

nice.
Now I want to steal the aviary, idea.

Hi
New sub!

Best, concise chick raising video I’ve seen! Wish I had seen it before getting my first chicks because most of this I had to learn as I went through trial and error. You’re so right about the hemp bedding! It’s so worth it!

What is your favorite heat brooder plate
