John, You inspired me. I am a 53 yr old woman who owns a barbershop with my husband. We bought 15 acres out in the country. I started watching your videos along with several other homesteaders. I bought your book and along with my daughter built a chicken tractor after your style. I currently have 19 chickens being pastured raised (started with 20 but 1 died) and I am 4 weeks in. I'm working on getting ready for harvesting the chickens. If I can handle that, then I am moving forward....I'm amazed at how many customers of our barbershop are interested in buying our chickens.....one person at a time we can change the way people eat in America!

John Suschovich If you ever need to rebuild or expand your chicken tractors you should try this mod. Buy two 10’ sticks of 1X4 pvc trim board from Lowe’s or Home Depot, and lay them flat on the bottom of the tractor like skis, heat the end up with a heat gun and bend a ski radius into the front and rear of the boards. You no longer need wheels, or to lift the front of the tractor up when moving them. They slide over the grass very easily like a sled. I’m running one tractor this way presently and it’s been great so except for 90’s and 180’s, and only then because the side edge of the “ski” catches any raised soil areas of the pasture. Anyhow, check it out.

Though I still have an office job, I'm blessed to be able to work remotely somewhat frequently, and the entire purpose of my starting my own homestead is to achieve the sort of "wealth" you talk about here.

In your answer to Brian's question ... have you run sheep or goat a few days ahead of your chicken to manage the grass? I haven't experienced it myself but some of the regenerative farming concepts have chicken trailing pigs, sheep, goats, or cows as a way to manage pests and to dig in the manure of larger foragers? Seems like an intriguing experiment if you ever have the time to explore it.

The barley fodder comment you addressed in the video has to do with actual fodder and not planting it in your pasture. You basically grow a mat of barley grass that is about 4-5 inches high and they eat it all including the roots. 20 percent protein and all the other good stuff. As for fermenting, you can check with Justin Rhodes for that. He does that religiously.

Thx for all the sharing! I've read your book, watched a bunch of your videos, started experimenting and have been thinking about how to economically put this in shape here in France... Could you tell us more about your experiments and ideas with red rangers? Here in France, the norm for organic or "farm poultry" is slow-growing breeds (81 days minimum at slaugther). The most common breed is called "cou-nu" (which means bare-neck). I've tried a batch this year in a pastured pen your size and even with restricted feed they got very fat. I'll adjust the feed composition next year but i'm also thinking they might need more exercise. I'm also having a hard time with the economics. The birds take longer to grow, in other words you can't grow as many with a reasonable number of tractors AND the price you sell them is way lower: around 8.5-9€/kg (4€/lb). The only decent compromise i've come up with is to use a trailer shelter with electric netting around (like salatin''s eggmobile) and move it once a week. Any other ideas? Last simpler question: do you move them on wet grass? I've lost two this summer after storms: Very hot during the day, quite cold at night and moving them after the storms onto wet grass... and they weren't too young.
@farmmarketing8 жыл бұрын
Thanks for all the thoughts on chickens Thomas. With the rangers in the past I did something similar to what you mentioned. I put up the portable netting around a set of chicken tractors and let the birds roam about during the day. That system had some flaws for me that I will experiment with in 2017. Those experiments are going to be changing the chicken tractors a little to allow for easier in and out for the birds. Changing up feeder and water placement possibly, and I'm open to any suggestions. I have moved birds onto wet grass. There's benefit to waiting until later in the morning or early afternoon to when the grass is clean and dry. It all depends on what the weather is going to do after that move and how bad their manure is in the old spot. The poultry industry globally is in an interesting place. There's a ground swell of people that want something different. We just don't have the funding of the big guys and there's no great way to share information (aside from APPPA.org) that I know of so everyone's experiment take time to get around. We'll get there though. There's cool stuff happening and I'm proud to be a part of it.

Hi John, I've been watching your videos on your CSA and your meat chicken adventure. Incredibly invaluable material considering you're probably the only one I've seen doing such a detailed report on such an enterprise. I've been brainstorming about a hybrid farm focusing on not only the meat but also the feed. I've seen plenty of farms producing worm compost and selling the worms. Since chickens love worms I thought that adding such an element to your farm would profit your birds and your wallet since you would be selling worm compost and chicken and spend less on your feed. I don't know if compost would be suitable to incorporate into a CSA but I'm pretty sure the compost would sell. Please let me know your thoughts on this.

John, I raise chickens in my garage. I know this seems odd, but it's what I do to have my own stock. I purchase a dozen per batch for a space that can sustain 10 healthy birds. I normally get 8 to 10 survivors after two weeks. My last two batches have had 100% success rate. Meaning all 12 made it to harvest. I've used a water supplement for the 1st two weeks both times. Not saying this is a cure all, but do you think this supplemental water treatment is viable for a larger operation?

James Cox While rabbit is leaner than chicken, it being more healthy than his tractor-grown chickens is hardly debatable. On top of that, there are many other problems raising rabbits (can't use tractors, they'll dig out & get eaten), and most people in farm country aren't going to pay the $8-$13/lb he would have to charge to be worth the work of growing them to size when they can just pop one with a .22 or catch them in a rabbit box once in awhile for variety. Some places, maybe, but rabbits add whole new levels of complications on a CSA/production level farm.
