You are the perfect crazy chicken lady 😁

Thank you so much I’m a 13 year old and you inspired me to start a homestead and get some chickens. Keep up the good work.

I love how you involve your young family. I grew up in this setup. I am retired now at 60, with lots of energy and motivation, I want to do this because I grew up doing it, chickens, piggery, cows, goats, sheep, cows, planting. Oo Thank you from South Africa.

I’ve been following you for several years and I have to say that this is my very favorite video. You have explained from start to finish the whole process of raising chickens in a very cohesive fashion. I get confused a lot of times when the video jumps around. I love love love one animal at a time step by step. ❤❤❤

I've learned so much from this channel, worked on a farm to get hands on in processing chickens and turkeys all while being a single father, the end goal is to be homesteaders

One thing that I add to my faster growth chickens is liver. I boil a chicken or some beef liver, chop it fine, and feed that the first week, one time. Helps their nerve development on the faster growth birds.
I learned that from either Storey’s guides or Joel Salatin.
I put a thin layer of Vaseline on their bums when I put them into the brooder. I haven’t had any more pasty butt since doing that.

I laughed so hard when you said "you don't do that math in public, you do that math in private"!!!! I can totally relate to that!

This is the man Justin that got me started and even convinced me to start a chicken channel! You changed my life and everyone around me has been affected in a positive way I cant thank you enough for giving me the confidence to get started!

During WWII, Victory Gardens and home rearing of chickens and other poultry was highly encouraged... and it was said that two hens for each member of your family would provide you with all the eggs you'd ever need... Personally, I think that is probably more like five for each 2 members of your family, but to each his own! any extra can be freeze dried and used for molting time when egg production drops

Great video! When I was a toddler, I was unsupervised for what was probably only a minute at my grandparent's ranch and accidentally "loved" a baby chick to death -- the memory hurts to this day and I'm 66 years old. It's probably why I've loved chickens and spoiled them rotten my whole life.

I live in an apartment in Pittsburgh, down the street from me rarely when I take the back road to get home, there’s two chickens just walking the same street every time. Twos a perfect number for their yard too

[julietbowden]

Great video Justin! I love how the turkey chicks turn and face the corner so they can’t see you! ❤
