So there's chicken poop and cow manure all over those fields: do you ever plow the fields or mow it? or harvest it for hay, etc? Or is it just a continual wild growth and then you let them feed on it.. Is there any other maintenance to the land, is my question?

no linkey, no searchy resulty, no believey!

I like how feeding the cows is just an after thought. lol.. The cows are just there to prepare the grass for the chickens; the fact that they get a meal out of the deal is just a bonus. ;)

Wondering about aerial predators - we have aggressive owl that will even go into a barn to get chickens. Obviously working for Polyface, Farm but how?

You are unique and sooo inspiring !!! Blessings +++!!!

Meanwhile Tyson foods has a thousand chickens stacked into one cage....

What if you're on very small acerage?

This works great 👍

Thank you from South Africa! Could you kindly inform what the size of the hoop house is accommodating a thousand hens/per 1,000. And I gather - a hundred roosters - for the three winter months. nealvaughn2340 comments these are Barred Rock fowls. What breed are the red ones? Give gas!

We have had multiple cases of High Pathogenic AI kill flocks of back yard flocks on grass in the US

Oh Yh Nice.

Pasture raised is the best

How do you keep the hawks away?

It's not about healthy farm,it's just incentivised critics who sitting as couch potato try to kum wid any idea against farms & animal husbandry in general doze critics haven't seen even don't want to see how diligently grazing lot's rotating is done on daily bases to give manure & other biomass ample & sufficient time to grow lush &vry healthy grass again as demonstrated in video dat 200 cows grazing in 1.25 hectares today& 4sure tomorrow cows grazing land wilb rotated to next grass lot, it's misery of unhealthy critics effect kntry's security,to satisfy deir coach potato agenda talking left to right against vry poor & struggling farm & ranchers is vry shocking trend for nation security & stability

Love it! Any reason Barred Rocks are the breed of choice?

My third time to ask: What are the public health position on the pigs rooting corn out of the urine and feces filled biomass? I am thinking pig infection spread, to humans. All the major flu seasons used to start 8n Chinese pigs. I'm not sniping, Joel. I am positive this is a viable topic that can explain the safety of this practice. Good for a short video.

Plus you move materials a lot.

Not everyone is cut out to be a farmer. I enjoy it, but not everyone will.

Good advice, The biggest hurdle where I'm located is competing in a saturated market. It's wise to position yourself near an urban area that has the populous to support a small farm operation .

Love the wagging tails

Go Darwin. I'll hide my hens in the shower to keep the healthy ones from being exterminated. BTW, they don't get sick because the are free range.

Thank you, Joel, for putting the information out there for people to consider and make informed decisions. Best.

😂😂 YOU can eat it for breakfast, NOT ME!!!

… a delay gratification mindset When starting any business endeavor 💭

Enjoy your shredded wheat.

Been thinking about partial burning wood for biochar to the soil.

You have to really want this and not because you saw a TikTok video of doomsday propaganda to satisfy your daily fear porn consumption.

This really works

THAT IS AWESOME

I'm going to pass on breakfast thanks

We have deep creeks here. How do you deal with that,?

Yeah, ok

Don't believe you

This can change life. People that can should and people that can't please support the people that do.

What form of carbon? Manure?

I do not understand how tge pully system works. It is hard to move cowshit. Keep adding carbon, or do you mean manure?

Thank you.

I think you meant 203 animals not acres

What a huge blessing to could have shared! Thank you. Most kindly!

Is this an old video? So many folks masked up lol.

Thank you so much!

Great tour

I appreciate yah Mr. Salatin.

Sir, thank you very much for sharing what you do. A businessman would say you should keep your competitive advantage secret. But thankyou so much for sharing it. I hope to farm similar to you some day. May the Lord bless you.

This is way way bigger than this.. American architecture has people buying multiple story houses, lots of stairs, large lots w extensive landscaping, exterior materials that will require paint every 5-7 years, in some cases sooner, internet and other media telling old people that multiple family dwellings are more expensive than detached single family homes to maintain, homesteads often need extensive upkeep just for flatland and tree trimming and removal, road maintenance.. people often don't understand about defendable space and you can't have multiple acres of unmaintained land in most states without creating an immediate fire hazard to you and your dwelling. And people are in a . mindset where water is available to water lawn, wash vehicles and it's just a hose away from use. And when you have multiple acres and you don't get natural water, you have to maintain your plants and trees..

beautiful vista...thanks for the education and encouragement!

Love and blessings +++ from France ! You are sooo inspiring !!!

Is there another animal that can do the work of pigs? I'm allergic to pork.

Don't believe everything you read. Cattle are not the money maker anymore. Hogs are

Thank you. Yah Bless.
