Most of the chicken feed at hardware and farm stores now comes in 40 lb bags and it costs more than 50 lb bags did 3 years ago. Luckily here in north Idaho we have a good family run farm and ranch store that has good bulk feed for a reasonable price.

All these lovely adoreable passionate gardening pioneer life tutorials You Tube produced by Satans computer animation TARE RACE founded on Satans methods 4burning wood, gathering water, sewage, gardening. (Only exception being my food forest.) I dont have gardening vids. Dont need2. Just read this. Yahweh quote 2016 75% earth NOT humans = satans tare race, (Demons. They dont know they are demons) They perpetuate trojan horse garden vids2entice peeps dump so much cash in2garden is just not wrth it. Maybe 3% out here country garden. Not even1 gardening cashless or paying less then just buying food Walmart &they till bare earth like Satans boys teach. I live on vast wildfood garden 600 miles square bcuz I seeded entire countryside Wister Ok with 100 various wild seeds from Los Angeles basin. I only ever planted about 3 vegetable gardens but i am thgardening king of kings. How? Lol I dont subscribe tares my focus = delete $$$. Where i am is where all u people will be. Lol all Satan has 2do = reduce water pressure, manipulate weather, change seasons specifically DURING CHIP ENFORCE. Not 1gardner talking about thfact money will be wrth nothing or even mentions Reptilian angels or Satan bcuz TARES engineered 2focus on FALSE reality. Phony pandemics, phony wars &presidents. Lol Yah showed us all president votes fake. Lol IGNORE SATAN ignore his scary evils. Yahweh stated he wont allow nuclear holicaust. Tare farmers focus on Satans presidents, economy, wars &government problems &ofcourse expensive grow lights lol. Lol those are DEVILS not humans. Yah showed us Mike Pence raping 300 babies a year, drinking thblood. Trump is SATANS good guy get past it gov. is NOT CLEANING THSWAMP like Satans google teach. Thus u people keeping thtrue criminals cmfortably out of jail while praising idiot war veterans who drop warhead on Japanese girl bcuz president Fred mad with President Jack. Lol bad guy Puttin is a clone. Computer animation. Gardening amounts 2soil = amounts 2 1thing. Mulch. Mulch never wrked never did never will. Bcuz people hear it wrks, lay down mulch, &it doesnt wrk bcuz they dont mulch ENOUGH. FORMULA: I use oak leaves only = 3,000lbs per 2,000 sq. ft. = 8" start of season. U must have it ALL IN PLACE BY FROST DATE SPRING cant add it after plants gro. Two: POTTING SOIL. Potting soil will DESTROY u when Satan enforce chip. If u recieve money medical chip in u skin u downloaded 2hell = computer program known as a "dimension" = Yahwehs firewall. I cnstructed 12 potting soils. Simple soil gathered under mulch wrkd best. (Do not pack it) Any1 refusing chip cant buy potting soil&fertilizer. Fertilizer = myth. When soil premium = all u need. Mulch = frtilizer. Period. God doesnt drop 100,000 tons per acre manure fall. He drops CELLULOSE. Three: Say NO 2no till: TILL TILL TILL I SAID TILL hole 4each seedling with shovel&plant. MUST start seedlings in pots, bring thm outside sunny days starting mid Feb. tomatoes early spring squash. Potting soil: GATHERED UNDER MULCH = notoriously persistent. Can be made in1 season but will persist YEARS = DELETE FERTILIZER WORSHIP. I feed my chickens whole fish &animals = entire pressure cooked deer road kill bone, hide, fur&all. I manure heavily fall but never spring 2fall. You ALWAYS have plenty phosphorous bones u can pressure cook crush4gardn or burn wood stove. WATER: Yahweh quote WATER WILL BCOME THEIR MOST PRECIOUS COMMODOTY. Build POND. Build DAMN. Cant use well water. Satan made people pile manure1 SPOT 1,000's years &these cmplete idiots bought it = poisons well water turns it brown. Well water never was never will be drinkable (in our present rusty society.) Taste like barb wire toxic4humans &plants. Spring (shallow) water yes. Its rainwater. Satans tapwater terrible 4plant human. Veggy gardnz a DEATH SENTANCE. PERIOD: Yahweh will switch thseasons as judgement&punish earth with fierce sun &drought u must fall back on wild greens &foods. Satan has u covered. With his roadside lawnmowers &wildlife "conservationist" demon army. Mowers ANNIHILATE edibles. All fruits greens grow only beside roads &open fields. With beavers gone = no (legitimate) productive fields. Only fields left are destroyed by Satans tare race demonic farmers who perpetuate hardpack water runoff.

I don’t believe anyone wants u to be afraid of homesteading or hobby farming..and it’s not scary! If the ram is getting nasty-Snip his manhood off when young..he will not develop nasty habits. Don’t buy chickens at the sale barn for your place. It’s a good way to get a disease in your chickens! Don’t forget, get different breeds that are Heritage and maybe more resistant. Some farms don’t sell their good chickens, they sell the sick, non layers or broody girls that want to eat the skin off your hand! If it’s not faded on their “gobblers” and they are bright red-they aren’t laying! The eggs take those nutrients from the hens gobblers-Been raising chickens for 30 years. We had the kids show their goats for 4H, goats-Saanen, real big milkers-Nubians goats almost as big in milk, and horses that will eat different types parts of the pasture than the other animals! I have moved off my farm now bcuz I got badly injured by a stud horse-but don’t think I don’t miss it every second of every day! Can’t feed goat food to sheep-so u need to choose sheep or goat. My baby was born with allergies to everything! My old farm neighbor said get him on goat milk! Problem solved! I love watching your farm life!

Hit the restaurants for their kitchen and dining room scraps. When I had chickens, my 45 ( Fourty Five) hens and 9 muscovy ducks consumed $20 /MONTH in feed...2016-2021 when I was forced onto another path by Karen next door via Bylaw law breakers; scroll back in my videos if interested ) during the Lock downs that went up to $20/WEEK. If the restaurants in your area use compost bins with bag in them you can simply pull the bag of food waste out before the dump trucks do. If they do not use bads in their bins, a flat shovel is the tool. I took my Gorilla cart with a tarp and straps on the city bus then went around on a route I developed to grab as much food as I could possibly pull back onto the bus.

I used to live near a mennonite community and they sure seem to know how to be self sufficient. This was back in the late 1980's before cell phones and there was only landline phones. Their church wouldn't let them have a phone in their home, so they would have a pay phone installed outside their farms on the county dirt road right of way. They also wouldn't allow them to have cars or pickups, but they would allow tractors, so they used tractors for transportation, along with using them for farming. I dated a girl whose Mother was a mennonite and when she was a teenager she was caught sneaking off into town to watch a movie with friends. She was bannished from the church and family and never saw her parents again. It was sad, they treated her like a stranger that they never knew.

I reserve all of my rights without prejudice. Whose in charge of the prices of food isn't it unlawful to overcharge customers in a time of need? It's a daily need so who's responsible? Whose in charge of the food distribution over site and why aren't they being held responsible for taking advantage of the people? No way a carton of eggs should legally cost over $3.00, these corporations and cohorts are taking advantage of the public, whose holding the FDA responsible for false claims against eggs? Or false claims of avian flu? When it really comes down to it why do we have to pay to live on a planet no one owns? Has anyone thought about that? Side note: Did you know our "vegetable oil" says it's made out of soybean oil as far as I know soybean is not technically a vegetable it's a legume and a derivative of the latex protein kin to the rubber tree. I won't use it. IMHO... it's nasty stuff. Just because "they" say it's good for you doesn't mean it is. They weigh the risks to the "benefits" override it, do a small study and if it's cheap get it FDA approved for consumer use. Just because they "say" Asian women can use it doesn't mean Northern/Southern American people can use it. What they don't tell you is that their studies are biased because Asian people are missing an enzyme which makes their studies null and void. They've been adding soya/soy to everything because it's cheap. And as we all know cheap doesn't mean good. Read the ingredients on the products you buy, the big companies like Campbell's, Oreos, Chef Boy R Dee, Hormel, Post cereals, Club crackers, most breads we buy. I know how I feel when I eat soy. My liver swells which causes pain, I get lethargic, gassy, and palpitations, itchy, and a foul rancid taste in my mouth. I'm allergic to soy and it's practically in everything we use now off of the shelf and in our medicines. Because it's cheap and it's washed in a chemical known as hexane, which isn't good for us, for god's sakes it killed mice in their "testing". Risks don't outweigh benefits and the people approving this garbage should step down and never come back. How do scientists, FDA, so-called quality control, "oversight committee members" lab people, food manufacturers, biologists, practicing physicians, M.D.'s, people with Phd's, how do you live with yourselves? Knowing your intentionally suppressing information for personal gain? How do you live with knowing that you're hurting people? These aren't "medical miracles" it's genocide against humanity. Here's another question If you're a liar how do you know when you're being lied to? How do you look yourselves in the mirror and lie to yourself saying that you're "helping" man-kind because "the benefits outweigh the risks?" Or even worse do you know you're committing genocide and just don't care? Are they extorting you? Are you covering up for them to keep your company running? When you see someone hurt do you have any empathy? Do you know what that is? Or are you past the point of saving? Bioengineered isn't a godsend it's an abomination. Has anyone been able to find any corn that hasn't been bioengineered? Did you know that if you plant bioengineered corn near someone's crop it can ruin their crop and you can be sued for damages? Bioengineered ruins ecosystems. North America alone has some of the most fragile ecosystems and these madmen will ruin everything they touch. Man-made has never been good for us or the planet. Corn just regular corn not "bioengineered corn" regular old fashioned corn is one of the three sisters in the Indigenous heritage and now we can't get it. Why because Bill Gates was allowed to genetically modify it out of existence? Is it because he's rich? Is it ok now for rich people to do whatever they want with no fear of consequences? Just because people are labeled "billionaires" doesn't mean they have good intentions? It also doesn't mean they should be followed off the cliff to our death. We are our own leaders. If we are all leaders why would we need to follow a leader? When they genetically modify humanity out of existence are you going to be ok with that too? Has society desensitized everyone into not caring about humanity's survival? When humanity's EGO, GREED and IGNORANCE gets in the way you have humanity against humanity which is genocide. We've seen it get in the way of the world by contaminated water, bioengineered weather and food, depleted minerals from mining, extinct animals, city after city being built, home after home pushing wildlife out and pushing in the industrial revolution. The world covered with concrete is an ugly picture. We use to have wild grasses and trees and species no man had ever heard of and now even those are extinct or in danger. Just because you can manipulate something in a lab doesn't make it natural. We had natural and you all are responsible for the death of it. You hear radicals and people wanting to profit "we're stewards of the land" in order to be a true steward of the land you can't do any harm. DO NO HARM. Changing and manipulation is harm. Man-made and nature do not go hand-in-hand. If it ain't broke don't fix it. How do you reverse what you have destroyed? How do you stop the domino effect? How do you put it back the way it was if it's extinct? People need to think more and really look in the mirror we are more than just the reflection we see, we are a part of everything with infinite consciousness that no computer will ever be able to duplicate. Leave us and our world alone, no one gave you permission to destroy any of it. You don't own the world and you don't own us. Open your eyes to see what you have really done.

I was just in the grocery store last week and regular large eggs was $5+ a dozen. It made me thankful my girls are laying eggs. The Bible warns that one day a loaf of bread will be a day's wages. Learning to produce your own food is one of the most important thing you could learn and teach your children

Yes, that’s disturbing. To think that a whole days wage to buy one loaf of bread, wow.

I'm an off grid farmer myself, I'm very familiar with the Amish coming from YORK, PA. I used to deal with Amish daily in LANCASTER, PA. My off grid farm is near the national forrest in SC. You are an inspiration brother! I use a lot of your techniques I run solar & have gas backups hooked into my personal grid. I do have an electric like through the property, but the electric company pays me for it to be here & I got them to put the only street light on my street for free on my property. I also get a Federal stipend yearly for a nature preserve on the property, I get Eagles, Ducks, Falcons and Blue Herons on the preserve hunting the 1 pond there. I still have 2 ponds for farm use.

Our chickens had 100’ by 300’ area to run, loved watermelon and cantaloupe rinds, potato peeling. They also got feed. My husband enjoyed his “girls” as he called them. They knew the sound of his pickup as he pulled into the driveway and would come running! They’re actually pretty smart.

We recently paid $20 each for two new layers for our flock. They started laying within three weeks. We keep eight hens at a time. The upside is that we didn't have to have the new ones in a brooder or buy chick feed for them and they started laying pretty quick.

Poults begin laying around 5-8 months. Egg production drops off pretty quick after 18 months of age. That's when egg production facilities send them off to the dog food factory. Leghorns are the king of egg production but are worthless as a meat bird. Runner ducks are better layers than chickens and Courtinex quail lay daily beginning at 8 weeks of age.

We just bought some chicks from a family store and are finally living at a place we can have room to be self sustaining. We love off grid life. We are trying to figure out the best way to feed our chickens wholesome food without buying from tractor supply. I've found a homesteader that mixes black oil sunflower seeds, oyster grit, unrefined oats, diatomaceous earth, and whole corn. And very thankful to God for y'all. I love your animals too🥰. May God continally bless yall and y'all's hands in everything you do
