Chicken expert here! Lol Not really an expert but we’ve got 60 chickens here on our farm. :) But it’s not a chicken farm… it’s a flower farm! (We do sell eggs along with our flowers at the local farmers market) At any rate, it’s typically best not to mix different ages of chickens. Unless you’ve got a hen that’s gone broody and hatched her own eggs, there is a whole pecking order with chickens and you’d be best off picking three that are the same age. Hope that helps! I love to see all the wholesome, earth nourishing projects you’ve got going on. 🥰

I have 4 chickens. They're amazing and so friendly. We receive way too many eggs than what we can consume, so we're always giving them away!! They are quite low maintenance. I enjoy owning chickens. I would suggest buying pullets (teenagers) or already laying hens from a rescue, etc. The chicks will take many months to start laying (maybe 8 months?). My two newest chickens were from a local rescue and were already laying. Made the whole process so much easier. You can loose chicks from sickness, etc. It can be hard and so, so time consuming. BUT I still think raising them from chicks it worth it of course if you are patient :) I just took the easier route! Join a local "Backyard Chicken" Facebook group for advice. When one gets sick or seems off we send pictures and get input from others. Extremely helpful.

All the trials and let downs you went through looking for a house, were worth it. Look what you ended up with. A property that already had the bones for everything you wanted, and now you're making the bones come to life again. And what beautiful life you are giving those bones. The gardens look beautiful, all the hard work is paying off. That Virgo in you is all you need to make your dreams come true, work it to the fullest😉. Wool-son is thriving and so cute, Lanka is such a cool dog. All while working hard every day, you're managing to keep the whole family ticking along happy and healthy 👍🏼. Can't wait for chickens to slot in. Lanka and Wool-son will have some new mates to adjust to. Well done so far, you're a winning team🏆🐕🐑👫+🐔👍🏼

Chicken Gal here!! I would either do all chicks or get all already laying hens unless you have a broody hen it is unlikely she will raise them. They are an easy fun hobby animal but there is A LOT to learn about them. I would also recommend fully sanitizing that coop before bringing any chickens home. Having your flock of chickens die to diseases that may have been in that coop would be so sad. Also, having chicks is a lot of work in the beginning but so worth it bc they will love their people and come running to you. And they will be laying before you know it...it’s also so fun picking out which breeds you want if you have a local enough breeder 😊

Lovely to see the progress you guys have made. Glad you got your seaweed. You are so right about the Coast it is just so breath taking!

With other KZbinrs sometimes I watch their videos and afterwards feel the need to go shopping, style my house a certain way, exercise more, etc. but I never feel that way with you and your husband! You are both such genuine, good people and you make me want to give back to the community and earth, get out into nature, cook nutritious food, and spend time with loved ones and animals. I adored your camper videos and now, the farm is such a dream and I’m just so grateful that you guys share this all with us! I think I’ll work in my yard today too :)

I almost never leave a comment but every week this is the video I'm looking forward to the most, sometimes the only one. It leaves me inspired to make the most of my garden and my time, it reminds me what I'm working towards, it aligns with my heart and motivates me to make everything around my life align too, listening to my soul carefully, which is what you've done. Content of superficial, materialistic, hustle driven ideas leave us feel comparing us to others, unsatisfied, forgetting our mental health and looking for the next quick boost of gratification. This, on the contrary, is such a good energy to put out there in the world, which of course is a reflection of your own energy and beautiful and grounded spirit.

The garden is looking Amazing! As far as chickens go you have two options, raise some chicks but they won't lay for 16 weeks or buy point of lays (16 week old pullets) which means you get eggs straight away. I have contacts in the area if you need. My kids call me Mrs Tegal as I am a crazy chicken lover. Currently have 35 hens 🤣🐔

They are removable t you can get new sticky pads for them. I use them to hang up towels, jackets etc. If you have a $1,2,3 shop I bought an over the door hook with 6 hooks for $2 .

If you are wanting to raise your own flock from chicks there is a breeder in featherston who has gingernut ranger chicks hatching every week. We are picking up 5 on Thursday! So excited. You can find her on trademe. They do require heat till their feathers come in and won’t lay for about 18 weeks, but I think hand raising is so much fun and they are so friendly when grown.

You might need to protect your seedlings with covers until they establish. Upside down drink bottles work when you cut the bottom off. Great to see your progress. Agree with your shopping video Hokey Pokey ice cream is the best!

Watch for frosts with your tomatos. If its going to freeze overnight (it still can this time of year in the Wairarapa) just cover them with newspaper or something.

Awesome job on the gardens. As you have already found out, our frosts here in the Wairarapa are harsh. If you haven't already prepared for them with your garden perhaps getting some frost cloth.

Love your videos and watching you guys on your journey! I have to chime in on the chicken debate. As everyone said you need to get the same age. I’m a fan of getting chicks. I think the bond you have with them is sweeter. Obviously means you have to wait a little while to get some eggs but worth it for me. They come up to my bedroom door every morning to greet me and follow me like I’m there momma whenever I come outside. I got mine in April (US) and one was laying at the end of June! Not mentioned but personal opinion…no need for a rooster. They just hurt the chickens and tend to be aggressive in general. Hens (and females in general 😂) can fend for themselves pretty well.

Chicken Rescue would be the ideal, there is sure to be a local egg farm nearby, so get some from there, they will probably look awful, but will soon return to being fully feathered and with the outdoor country life producing glorious farm eggs.

The garden looks amazing! You two did great! Can't wait to see your chickens when you get them. My boyfriend and I would like to get chickens some day when we have a better property for it!

Great job Carrie. Wairarapa has hot dry summers so may have to look into reusing your grey water.
