Here’s Where Turkeys are Better than Chickens

[@AmosIrontree]

Watching your family working, playing and eating together warms my heart and makes me hopeful for the future.

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

You are so kind

[@MillyRue]

I took special care to do my garden this year so that I get a bunch to can... and everyday I walk out to look at it and I am amazed at its growth and beauty.. my hubby was against my garden redo, but now admires its beauty..

[@4BWVan]

It's so wonderful to see Gideon wanting to help and doing a good job at it. He's growing up!

[@gaylef3477]

Loved Lilly going to pet a turkey, and doing her turkey dance!! What a fun family you all are. Mr Brown is totally growing up, getting the grit 'I can do it myself'. Always look forward to your videos, education with a smile!!

[@bonniewooters6796]

😁😁😁. Many years back had 3 neighbors with lots of pasture but not as much land as I had that all butted up together. At a barn raising picnic put our minds together and made a plan to join together rotating as we go to improve the land grazing the different animals. We were doing what we saw was improving not only the pasture but the quality of the animals. We were doing what you’re doing and improving everyone’s land just cus of need but what we saw. Growth!!! Thankfully we first began with water lines which really helped cus we had to buy shares of water based on land and usage cus we were agriculture. I had a sand pile for garden and chickens always would eat it and dust baths too. They were naturally teaching me what they needed. Nothing better than a cooling jump into water and eating homemade ice cream (fresh peach from our trees) and a BIG thank you to grandma and your beautiful one for all their hard work. AND that’s a lot of work in one day. Soon your plates will be full of everything you’ve grown. Now that will be a PERFECT day. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Rebeccah, I love seeing you working in the kitchen with your Mom. I lost my Mom when I was 30 and 51 years later I still miss her so much sometimes. This time you have together, make sure you think of as many questions about her child hood as you can. I have so many "I wonders" and Ancestry.com only answered a few of them. That chicken fried steak looked so good...that was a favorite for us. Thanks for sharing your day....Y'all have a Blessed day.

[@spencerdavis3264]

Just wanted to say thanks for all these amazing videos. I learn new things from your channel every day and I enjoy the fulfillment that you get from working hard while having fun. Your kids are some of the most well behaved and helpful I have seen. You have both been doing great to raise and support your family. You are some of the best parents I have seen. Keep up the good work and thanks for all you do for us!

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

Glad you like them!

[@hdlstns]

Beauty's mom is awesome. I hope you show her the same appreciation you were showing the kids this week! (I am certain you do) God Bless you guys and your way of life. I wish I had started something like this when my kids were small.

[@farmerboy8684]

15:00 Stop polar plunging and just go get shocked by the fence! I know how it feels it hurts! It definitely wakes you up! And those cows seem to like that grass just as much as you liked that ice cream! I guess that’s why it’s called ice cream grass! Great video!

[@kristianpaolotorres7716]

Gideon is maturing into a little Jonah!

[@UwharrieFarm]

Enjoy watching your beautiful family. We also raised our children on our farm. We are now empty nesters with grandchildren and 1 great grandchild. You all are doing a super job with the farm. One suggestion, the overhead sprinkler is very inefficient. We tried it in the past. Waste a lot of water and creates muddy paths. You need ground cover to conserve the water, plus drip irrigation as some have suggested or simply water with a garden hose. Drip irrigation or hand watering with a garden hose puts the water exactly where you want it with little or no evaporation if you also have some type of ground cover such as mulch or plants. Bare soil is always troubling. Keep up the good work!

[@BloomWithGracie]

You and your family are amazing. Love how well behaved your children are. God Bless

[@jeannecooke4862]

Thank you for your Beautiful videos sharing your family and homesteading...really, you help to battle loneliness for people who would otherwise feel yotally alone...like otherd on KZbin...thank you to all of you!

[@SarawakDude]

Alot of my fav KZbinr kinda stop posting daily except you. Thank for keeping me entertained sir👍

[@heidiclarke2333]

In the UK especially in Norfolk you can see fields full of turkeys free ranging in small groups this is in the run up to Christmas which when we eat them!

[@markgatton5096]

I was just thinking about your title and an odd question popped into my head. Do your turkeys lay eggs like the chickens? If they do, how do they compare to a chicken egg.

[@oscarsbackgardenbirds7460]

Your my favourite youtuber so it's good to see your channel growing so rapidly. Been with you since video 5!

[@promisedlandhomestead4248]

Really enjoying all the percentage of food info 👍👍 We have just arrived at the Homestead (2017) we started with our house building...then by 2018 we got chickens. We are now running Goats, Sheep, Pigs, Turkeys, and just loving it. With your info on how much feed per animal,it helps cut down on feed lost. Thanks Justin 😁

[@carolemullen8676]

Thank you for showing Grandma!

[@AlpacaMade]

Mr. Brown is finding a purpose, 2nd title for second book 😊

[@gifpam]

Suggestion: Pull your chicken coop backwards! Put a trailer hitch on rear. Pull forward under human power and backwards for tractor power.

[@patacake4997]

That evening meal looks so good.You provide well for your family.God bless you all.

[@margmurray1945]

Oh my, first comment ! Was great seeing all the kids shining while helping with the chores, especially with wI ith Josiah moving the sheep ... I wonder how many other youngsters Jonah's age would know how to read the graziability of grass - amazing ! Then after a busy day, let the good times roll !!!

[@shermdog6969]

Our chickens won't touch cow manure but we don't get flies on it either. Maybe because it dries to quick in our dry heat. The gravel you got for the turkeys is what all my property looks like with a few weeds mixed in.😄 We also kill our clover. We've had a few cows die from bloat.

[@FarmFreshIB]

How about an IBC on a trailer? You could fill it full of water, pull it out to the current pasture area full of water and water out of that instead of carrying buckets.

[@diydes3927]

Awesome video Justin! You are an inspiration I’m praying that one day I’ll be able to start a farm here in South Africa 🇿🇦 and go the permaculture route!

[@NikkiLee2023]

I literally wait for your videos every day lol xoxo

[@charlenehamm]

We adopted an older couples pet turkey. Only pet turkey we’ve ever had. We do raise turkeys occasionally to harvest. We teach her a routine - takes her about 3 days to learn it - then we don’t have an issue turning her out with the horse and goats. She goes into her stall at night when we feed.

[@erricarenas8196]

i like the ending same before enjoying eating the food from your farm together🙂

[@pickingwilddaisies945]

3:18 he looks so much like Rebecca ❤️

[@jenniferr2057]

put an attachment to pull it behind Sally on the opposite side of the chickshaw from the manual pole, make them both flip up, and flip down the one that you need when you need it.

[@samanthareynolds7846]

Put a hitch on the oppisite side of the shaw as the handle. Pull it backwards with sally

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

I thought of that but the front legs would drag.

[@samanthadeabreudesousa9165]

Hi i love you i want to be like you when I'm older❤. This is my moms old phone so i have it i have told my mom about you and she said if i won't to be like you and i said yes. From Matteo from South Africa in cape town

[@dr.muneerulhudha768]

I wish you guys a great success and happiness especially to your kids I wish I could do that once I have a family in the future

[@kayleerae3383]

y’all inspire me so much!

[@angelasheppard7197]

We used to have a Corgi that when he was hot he would come running inside, drop and slide across the floor vent and just lie there. When he was better or the ac turned off, he'd go somewhere else. So funny to watch.😊

[@jervisneita1736]

As always, awesome video. Looking forward to all the other days through to 100.

[@RunAMuckGirl2]

I think you have to warm the turkeys up while they are still new in the brooder.

[@weavertheodore9084]

So beautiful and nice hens (i like their voice :) ), so kind and pretty cows and so tasty ice cream :) .

[@nigardener]

bolt a piece of box section under the chickshaw so you can insert another piece with a tow hitch and lock it in with a pin

[@wildedibles819]

How you turn grass into ice cream team work never tasted so good lol

[@briangarrow448]

Are we still gonna get ice cream? Priorities!

[@indianacryptid6020]

Busy, busy, busy day then fun later at the swimming hole. Your videos are an enjoyment and learning process

[@JamesLee-py4wj]

[@fhoenisamintole7949]

"NEVER PUT YOU HANDS OR FEET WHERE YOU CANT SEE THEM WHEN PULLING OR PICKING FROM YOUR GARDENS ITS DANGEROUS!!!!!!!!!!!! POISONOUS SNAKES HIDE IN GARDENS!!!!! THANKS For the HELP......

[@peachpeaches1891]

Lofted this I live in nc and have chickens and would love to get some turkeys

[@Lori_M]

Are you planning to start a few beehives on the farm to help pollinate the gardens and pastures? Fresh homemade honey and honeycomb!! And help save the bees!!!

[@grudge7719]

working on our 10 acres we just bought that was recently logged, wife got a tick on her so we are guying up chickens. now im curious how many ticks a turkey can eat 🤔

[@gw783]

If you’ve never had it, malted vanilla is to die for!

[@DanielRizza]

Ya'll keep killing it!

[@ghmichel72]

I wish a land the property for our own family cow 🐄 with all the milk & cheese my we consume ✊🏾 I would definitely add yogurt & cultured cream to our diet. Will you make a video on the types of pastures good for cow grazing? I always hear you talking about level of cream depending on the pasture.

[@roeshelleclevinger8414]

You all make a great team. The happiness in the cows and sheep running. I do feel for the Male sheep. They don't have the same happiness as the other animals.

[@cynthiafranco4313]

God bless u'all and grandma to

[@marygordon3032]

Awesome y’all! 👍👍💯💯

[@KayiFarmJaHoneyBees]

where is my cup of ice cream! lol awesome stuff!

[@davidoshea73]

How do you get all the chickens into the coop in the evening?

[@flbeachinggirl]

Could you put front wheels on the chicken tractor for Sally to tow?

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

This is an interesting thought.

[@matthewburns5053]

No strawberries for strawberry ice cream yet.

[@tinafarris2082]

what kind of sweetner do you use in your ice cream ?

[@flyingpigpreserve8562]

What a great day on the Homestead. Actually Great Day. Ice Cream, Swimming and Chicken Fried Steak Yum😋. My Friend gets her Dog what's called a Puppy Cut for the Summer. It's shorter hair which makes. Cooler for them and less work for humans. God Bless and Peace Be With You All ☮️🙏❣️

[@sue28877]

❤️❤️we had a dog who laid on the floor vent in the bathroom ❤️❤️you might want to keep Teddy s hair shorter in the summer. Enjoyed the video

[@osaretinsibusiso8454]

I kindly ask on which website do you guys buy your chick's

[@andrewtysick8393]

Do you ever have problem with predators and if so what do you do?

[@badWithComputer]

Hey Justin, what mfr and model is that silver fridge freezer in your kitchen? We are looking for a new one.

[@egb0gaming379]

Love your vid

[@cnichols9382]

Was this just posted?? :o

[@emmaslow]

I'm excited about white clover too, now 🤣 #icecreamgrass

[@jdmhatchback90]

Justin how did you pay for all the fence and posts? You have several thousands of dollars in Chicken fence..

[@TEXASdaughter]

What brand is your ice cream maker?

[@josephcrookes193]

First YES - Hey Justin and Family!

[@tommyfsx2693]

would be cool to see a day in the life of... every member of the family

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

Check out the Holiday playlist. I go for that theme when making those films.

[@bhavens9149]

I'm with you, think turkeys like the tractor and not a bad idea.

[@dw1920]

How do you keep predators away at especially the cows and sheep

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

No worries for the cows. For the sheep, electric sheep net.

[@geechegal987]

justin, your kids are amazing-it would Be fantastic if your older boys could do two to three day summer youth program to teach some skills,im a grant writer from chicago-got at least twelve boys that would love it-lets talk

[@ethanstraughn609]

First can you send the plans for the fat chicken shaw

[@jeannecooke4862]

...yotally a typo, ... TOTALLY ALONE is so avoided with KZbin Channels!

[@513blah]

That ice cream looks good.

[@SpookyBabii_666]

Justin loves his ice cream

[@toddjones7893]

Justin... You are the smarter not harder farmer. Why not a automatic milker?

[@cathydoherty1616]

Justin watching you everyone would think you been ding this your whole life. Just feels that way, right?

[@Gerardbal]

Have you thought of getting beehives?

[@michellewallace3152]

Give them turkeys a few more weeks and they will get even sweeter. Ours went through a wild stage like chickens then calmed down to be so enjoyable

[@RKook55]

new to your channel, why do you call your youngest Mr Brown???

[@MrJudgementday99]

I will never understand why the rams aren’t in with the cattle, it saves you a bunch of time on your chores

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

Because they would break out and breed the Ewes and we want to time the breeding of the Ewes for a spring lambing. So we'll actually run the Rams with the Ewes starting in October.

[@hashglass]

i want to be a kid again you guys into adopting a 48 year old lol ps hard worker

[@lizgessnermcallister4884]

Watching the sheep follow you made me think of a window in my Church. It was given in memory of my Great Great Grandfather and my Mom loves it. This will be fun for puzzle loving Rebecca jigex.com/4GhM The window is called the Good Shepherd, "I am the good shepherd and I know my flock!"

[@edieboudreau9637]

Turkeys can hear the electric net hum. Chickens not so much. Don't forget to turn their nets back on.

[@dippyowen6266]

Love your family but have a question why is Mr Brown called Mr Brown?

[@ilndgirl478]

Swimming, fun!!

[@tristanpospech6498]

Cool

[@carolync5149]

Toss a little seed on the cow pies before you let the chickens out to encourage pie destruction?

[@theJustinRhodesShow]

Every day we do that ;)

[@tuurluyten4869]

Why don’t you get 3 cows?

[@sahilparikshitmohussur8815]

Hello 😁👍

[@edieboudreau9637]

Rebekkah...why not mint chocolate ice cream? Or a swirl? Guess you know what Justin likes most..."gone to heaven. Mm mm mmmh."

[@garypitonak5340]

I see your all eating CENTER CUT chicken steaks.

[@lukestory5042]

The Title does not make sense to me

[@minnesotagal507]

Chicken fried steak is usually veal.

[@ethanstraughn609]

???

[@FebbieG]

You never know what protein you guys are actually eating. Lol

[@DrtERotinBasstrd]

Aren't you afraid that feeding the chickens eggs shells won't make them egg eaters?

[@DrtERotinBasstrd]

And Lily is direct as a person ever was. Lol
