Thanks for the concern, but we never had an issue getting to proper weight on this feed. More important than the raw protein is the amount of lysine available in the feed to help convert that protein to muscle mass.

It wasn’t the feed. We never stopped feeding Purina when all the dingbats were claiming it and TSC feed was poisoned, and we saw less than a 4% drop in eggs for the winter before they went back to regular production. It’s been covered ad nauseum. Don’t fall for the fake BS.

@TheMindfulHomestead its America you can have your opinion man , but ive had a laying flock for 16 yrs, i dont keep hens past 2 yrs i hatch and maintain my own genetics im a long time purina customer because it was a superior product, they did something to it in a specific timeframe without a doubt, Top Dogs dont have our best interest in mind .

@@freethinker5039 Neither do a lot of the KZbinrs who spread all the misinformation on the Purina feeds when it was supposedly and issue. Controversy brings views and views bring money. I had a pretty popular youtuber, a bearded man who dresses like the Amish, tell me point blank at "behind the scenes" that he would do and say things on his channel he didn't believe because it brought in the viewers. You do you.

@@TheMindfulHomestead hey im not trying to make money scamming people on bad products and i dont believe anything on youtube ,i know this from experience, keep doing what you want , but i aint buying what you are selling , wake up sheep !

You'll find the meatbirds will eat a lot of grass and bugs.

You can get a good 120 volt grinder for pretty cheap, and I'm always open to new tools. Great idea.

That's true!

I agree. The extra space will be handy if you’ve got a lot of starts to grow!

You’re not the first one that’s happened to. These things are a bit of a pain sometimes. 😂

You bet, hope it helped!

Thank you so much!

I've actually got a few videos on the fencing we use for our pigs. YOu can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHyYZWdqbqhmmqs

You're welcome! Let me know how it turns out.

You're welcome!

It was -12°F out this morning when I went to check on the birds before work and the water was liquid from the bottom to the top. Heads up that you don’t want to put water in a coop in the winter anyway. It creates a humid environment that actually facilitates frostbite. In fact, coops shouldn’t be insulated either. You’re looking for a solid wind break and a roof, nothing more. It should be well ventilated year round.

We don't use electric netting as it gets really expensive for pigs. Here is a video we did on our fencing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHyYZWdqbqhmmqs

Glad I could help! It’s worked great for us.

Glad we could help.

Glad to hear it!

We used 2" gas pipe. Metal is way better than plastic.

@@TheMindfulHomestead Thanks I used an 1 1/2" Abs Pipe went on hard but works well.

That's a great setup if you have the space, it's definitely not for everyone but I can see the appeal.

Glad to help, I'm sure you'll find it's an easy install.

Each boar is going to be different. Some are good dads and others turn into jerks.

I know, I miss making videos too. It’s been a busy few months! I've got some fun stuff on the horizon though.

It's an awesome idea and one a buddy of mine who's a landscape designer from Utah first introduced to me.

The snowblower is 1000lbs with a metal cutting edge. It pulls up anything you pack down easily.

But you admitted you had to set the shoes 3 inches high to avoid the soft ground and thats my point, you are driving over a foot of snow leaving the most impacted snow once you drive over it, rather that leaving 3 inches of unimpacted on a reverse blower ,it has been may experience to never drive over snow to avoid ice build up because my front loader with down pressure wont get under the ice even with a paved driveway. Even with a floating blade plow you still have stones and sod piles but at least it is not scattered and you can shovel it back in the spring

@ A curved cutting edge on a blower is different than a bucket cutting edge. There’s a reason every residential snow removal service in Canada uses these things (and I just sold 2 to a service with 160 driveways in Albany, NY). If customers weren’t happy with the results, the industry wouldn’t be shifting this way. You’re welcome to keep doubting it, but these are the future. Plenty of other comments on this video to back it up.
