This middle aged lady in the video deserves an honorary doctorate in raising chickens in her farms.The way she has cares specially for different breeds of hens and cocks with thorough knowledge of them all is very appreciative.

I am in southern Nevada , My hens love scorpions . We harvest at night with black light, cut off stingers . Feed in morning.

Is there any reason why you don't just let the chickens pick the scorpions on their own? I've seen chicken do that but I am not a farmer so I don't know if here would be a problem.

@@A_Box you probably could, but you risk them getting a sting which would hurt them a fair bit, which would slow down their growth/health
