They Have Arrived!!!

Thank you for watching!

[@cindiiscurious]

I love how Chettie was not phased by a whole ass box of birds coming in the house 😂😂😸

[@Soymilk257]

2 dogs, 4 Guinea pigs, 1 cat, 1 Stevie, and 15 chicks You’re living my dream life rn

[@MichelleseaChelle]

😂

[@alyssalanders9553]

Next year garden idea...thrift stores or yard sale old windows and make a small greenhouse. You have semi experience with building the chicken coop. Then your seedlings can live there. Love your videos!

[@BlueMoon3l3b]

*just be careful which windows you get, some older ones have lead or lead paint in them and the dust or paint chips produced from them are toxic

[@bandteesnboots]

I’ve seen some really cool Frankenstein-d sheds and greenhouses!

[@jessicalottbergen9744]

I just wanna say PLEASE share all the little “ in between time” short clips too! They are what make up some of the most special moments ❤

[@ebonitompkins]

Yes! I was gonna say just make a clip video of all the random moments. I would watch 😂

[@jjagger3934]

Aw, Bea...I would love to see more bits of your daily life, I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we enjoy "little snippets " as much as longer sequences. I'd rather have more footage of you doing lots of different stuff, even if you only show a minute of each. I really enjoyed the yard sale bit in this video❤ or how your family came to visit and hold the chicken babies 🥰 Love it. Sometimes I wish I was your neighbour and we could hang out 🤗😄

[@lifebythecafterstrokeCHRISTINE]

Same here

[@amberrose8756]

Same

[@Mudi2783]

I really like B's video's the way they are❤

[@spookygothgirltee]

My thoughts exactly!! ❤

[@2lmkerns]

Yep!!

[@Emily-ns6kz]

Why are baby chicks the cutest things ever?! They are like little loud yellow balls of adorable. 🥺🥰

[@steph6337]

The tapping was a nice training thing! When I pass out treats or give food I tell my girls "chick,chick,chick" anytime I'm needing them to come or pay attention. The whole flock as adults now immediately come to me if I say it! It's helpful for times when I need quick recall - like if I saw a predator or if I need to leave the house.

[@donnabursey1457]

I do the same thing with my chickens! Here, chick chick chick! And they all come running in their beady-eyed waddle way! So cute.

[@FamilyYohan]

We did this too such an easy training

[@Aboley2014]

Even day old chicks will come when you call "chick chick chick" in a high pitch because it's similar to a mama hen noise 😊

[@alliepaunovich7143]

We have had about 80ish chickens since 2019. We have lost 4 or 5 in that time. I feel like they really are not as difficult as the internet shares. ❤

[@adriftinmidgard]

I agree. They’re very hardy.

[@peachfluke]

I agree. I’ve raised many chickens and never did any of the things her research suggested lol

[@laraejensen2157]

I rarely comment on anyone’s channel but I just have to say you made my day….I was having a hard time and your footage of the baby chicks just raised my spirits!! Thanks a big bunch!!😎

[@missfreckles6348]

I grew up with chickens and they are the epitome of trying to keep stupid alive. But they're my favorite farm animal and a lot of fun. You're doing an awesome job ❤

[@Besyatka]

You holding your hand in an arch form waiting for chicks to slide under is the cutest thing ever!! Gosh the world needs more content like this and more people like you.

[@erhon5]

Look at all the little fluff nuggets they are adorable!

[@TristansMom10]

omg! thank you for putting the camera down in there with them!!!! my eyes damn near popped out of my head from the cuteness of it all!!!! good job keeping them alive mama!

[@cindylehman4818]

When I fell in love with gardening I didn't realize how much room I would need. With the cost of soil,seeds, containers, etc and space for them. I just bought already started plants when it was warm enough the next year. Same price. Less hassle. Good luck with the chicks. So stinking cute ❤

[@godsfavor6939]

Hi Bea 🤗 Love ya sweetie and all you do for your animal babies. WOW I’ve learned so much about chicks. I had no idea! 🤷🏽‍♀️ thanks Bea 🥰

[@granitemoss1451]

I'm on my 3rd year of chickens and I hatch out my own chicks each year. Year 3 and your list of what can go wrong with chicks terrified me and made me amazed I've kept a dang thing alive all this time. You're a great chickie Mama!

[@kathleenspeegle3517]

The baby chicks are so cute!!! Thank you for sharing them!!!💕🐣

[@KnotHead01]

Just throwing it out there… ASMR baby chick feed… then when they start to play! So cute! And swings. Definitely swings.

[@barbaraheaton4770]

They are so adorable! We had chicks and rabbits years ago. I have to tell you that you are my favorite channel of them all. You are so funny and have a great laugh. I'm always amazed how you can struggle with all the feelings etc., and yet you remodel homes and build chicken clips. AMAZING 😊

[@silvercookies]

Baby chicks are so cute. Where I live chickens just roam wild, you see them in town, around the neighbourhood, parking lots. They sleep in trees. Before we let our dogs out in the daytime we always have to do a chicken check in the yard because there have been too many occasions where we have had to try and save a chicken from them and sadly sometimes we were too late. A month ago one hen decided to make a nest in one of our plants so we had to guard her for weeks until her eggs hatched and she finally could leave. If you have space in your yard or home you can make a designated workshop space for your hobbies.

[@bandteesnboots]

Oh goodness, the chicks! 🤩🤩🤩I miss our birds. My ex and I used to have Guinea fowl, quail, and a variety of chickens! Yep, when they’re little they require a lot of attention but it is so worth the time when they get bigger! Precious birds 🥰 Love your little homestead, it’s coming along! ✌🏼 and ❤️ from Texas.

[@kazpitch338]

The 🐥 chicks are so dang adorable 🥰 As for the seeds a second-hand or prefab greenhouse might be a solution for your plant babies 🌱🪴

[@farmlife5197]

I like to call any period of time in my life that involves renovations or projects such as coops etc, “sweatpant mode”. Get up, put hair in bun, sweatpants on, and go. The whole house goes to pot while in that mode but it’s necessary to get the projects done. You’re doing great and as always inspiring!

[@shellyduggan1817]

So I bought a five shelf unit from Target for my plant starts. I hang lights from each shelf for the one below and have heat mats for the plants that need it. It works pretty well.

[@jilliebean2574]

The squad is looking fabulous!!!

[@HeavensDeuxBetsy]

I had to say goodbye to my buff Orpington yesterday. Her name was Buffy and she was 8, which is old for a chicken. She was such a chicken diva. I'm sure you will enjoy your Buffies! ❤

[@Deb_BG]

I'm sorry for your loss. Sweet Dreams, Buffy

[@kella08]

My 9-month-old daughter loved the baby chicken footage! She got all excited. They are so cute!

[@joryhepburn]

give us a plant starts update! everything looks so good and as always I am blown away by how much you accomplish!

[@Bennettfarm]

Chickens are the gateway drug !! Before you know it you’ll be on 155 acres with 2 milk cows, a half acre of garden, chickens, horses, you name it. Ask me how I know this! 😂❤

[@stephannielyman7704]

Chicks so lucky to have you as their owner. You are so kind and care a lot for all living things 💗💗💗💗

[@user-db2nt8iy4n]

Good on you for sharing your chick footage! I adore them. You are such a good pet owner! 🥰

[@marilynmcpeak8818]

I'm only 2 minutes and can't stop laughing at the $10 for shopping for "dead people tchotchkes". I can't even 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jenniferclarambeau120]

I gotta say your overall dimeanor is you are HAPPIER!! Even though you and Stevie are living together and settled in to that life, I think he is a big part of it. Them baby chicks are the cutest!!!

[@SabrinaJoshua]

Aw those chicks are so cute 🐥 I hope they all continue to be ok..and that yard sale looked amazing, you definitely got some great bargains there 😻

[@gamma3198]

Hi Bea! I'm so impressed. You are doing your life! You look so happy. 🎉❤

[@tiffanysailor8410]

You're little nuggets are SO sweet! Thank you for sharing with us 🥰

[@kathleencousins8229]

Two seconds or 1 hour of your videos Bea…Make my day😃 thank you for all you share! 🌟💕

[@Rosebuddy777]

Pro chicken mom!!!!!!! Excellent job! They are SOoo cute!!!

[@theresamontgomery6708]

I think I see a green house in your future projects.

[@daniellebonisch3337]

We got a metal bookshelves for our seed starting and the grow lights attach to the metal.

[@estherbartholdy]

Sending you love and light, blessed be. Greetings from Guatemala!💖

[@sscarcliff]

Also... i think you might like this prefab greenhouse kit I saw at Costco the other day for your plant stuff for next year. I thought it was reasonably priced. I'm not prepared to move it with an infant...so I haven't bought one for myself..... but if I wasn't planning a move in the next 2 years then I might get it if my husband was on board with the idea lol because I also accidentally take over large areas of the house with plants each year.

[@reneemargaret9865]

Babiiiiiies!!!! 😭😭😭😭 they’re beautiful!! You’re gonna be such a good human they look like they already love you!

[@Chris-xe9tk]

And so it begins.. chickens are just the gateway drug! Soon you’ll have ducks and geese and who knows haha. Welcome to the world of homesteading :) you did a great job with the coop! I myself decided to go with ducks and geese after initially being interested in and researching chickens.. they are messier but in some ways but hardier and also less maintenance than chickens and the eggs have a little better nutritional value. I do still want chickens though… excited to follow your journey!

[@Ambersducttape]

I have a small 4 shelf greenhouse in my living room that I'm using for seed starters. I spent like 45$, best thing ive done for starters. Lots of vertical space!

[@auntlouise]

I love hoe you're teaching them not to fear your hands. and THANK YOU for making those roost bars low! I see so many people with high roost bars and their chickens either can't get up to them, or injure themselves jumping down. I have over 50 chickens and 20 guineas (don't get guineas because they range up to 50 acres eating ticks). FYI, I have never had my chicks eat their bedding, and I don't ever put marbles in their water feeder, you only need those if you are watering them from an open pan. Just watch them to see if they are sunburning (move their heat lamp up) or shivering lower it down). The only thing I've ever had chicks die from is them not being able to find the water, so if you hear them chirping really loudly, re-dip those beaks. My suggestion for "next year" is to build a shed (what I call my Bitch Barn) next to my chicken coop where I have shelves for seedlings and a Brooder for baby chickens before they go into the coop.

[@liligirladorno]

“My Ghost Foundation.” 👻 😂 So relatable.

[@kelly-jessie]

Add those small clips B😊 every bit of time spent watching you adds sunshine to my day 🥰

[@bethlovesthings]

The loop with sprigs out is my go to hair style and I laughed so hard as i knew EXACTLY what you meant. I also WFH too so maybe thats why lol Living vicariously through / love the chicky babies 😍

[@kathleendill8349]

That was fun to watch - yes, absolutely include little snippets - thank you for making me smile today.

[@user-auntnellie]

Thanks for sharing your happy little chicks with us😁😁😁

[@joselynfulbright8128]

We got our first baby chicks when I was about 15. They were our babies 😂 my sister and I were homeschooled so we would spend hours outside with them and they were so comfortable with us. There is definitely a learning curve with them but they are pretty simple animals. It's cool to see them develop and their little personalities come out.

[@jacquelinesherlock2274]

Hey Beatrice 🙂. I'm so excited for you and your chicken project. We always had chickens growing up but I'm not allowed to keep them in my current house. I wondered about your covered run. From memory (and because I have a parakeet) birds need wetness on their feathers to stay healthy. I spray my indoor bird and give him baths to jump into for that reason. Will your chickens have some time uncovered in their run to get sunshine for vitamin D and to experience rain on their feathers? Maybe you have another plan. I do want to get chickens again when I move 🙂

[@Ellwynnnnn]

omg these chicks are so sweet! I'm sitting at my computer giggling and smiling like a fool. Their little tweets *cries*

[@chermarsino]

My Buff Orpington was my fave and ahe loved to sit on my lap and take a nap.

[@crysgoldman3174]

Thanks for sharing the chickies! Love your channel ❤️

[@CassadarGoesRawr]

This is the most fun age of chickens! My last batch of babies just turned 4 months and have started laying eggs this week!

[@Ussnowbunny]

You could always build a backyard greenhouse for next season....or....buy one.

[@marymickelsen3378]

I have no horizontal surfaces in my house, either! Way to go with your projects, girl!

[@ajswmson]

I thoroughly enjoyed my completely para social relationship with you. You have gotten me through the pandemic and even now. I love following you!

[@mariannedressler6784]

Baby chicks 🐤 sooooo darn cute!!!

[@sassysaguaro4906]

Awwww, the cute lil baby chickies! Too cute. Also, I have that same art portfolio, and after abusing it at college for a few years, its still in great condition and holds up super well. That thing will last you for literal decades, nice score!

[@randomitity1]

Notification squad 🎉

[@rachelvincent3154]

When they are ready for it, I highly suggest giving the chickies meal worms as treats, they love the live ones!

[@BigBlessedNest]

You’ll love the Orpingtons! Such sweet chickens. Like, full on lap dogs.

[@mkj8973]

I love your mum. She's so precious.

[@ThatAnimalChannel]

wow youre doing a great job! Checking all the boxes for raising chickens safely!

[@diannabaggett1372]

I’m excited for you to get into the homesteading space. I been here for 3 years and it’s a fun fun exciting time.

[@Sherrie7117]

We got 15 buff Orpingtons last year. I just love them.

[@marniepratt9971]

Love the new family members! They are lucky to get to grow up in such a great home!

[@jennifermajor7185]

Bea, I love your videos so much! Any video, short or long is so much fun to watch! And your chicks are adorable!

[@Master_Jedi-rc9ln]

are you cooking chicken in the same room with a bunch of...*checks note*... baby chickens in the same room?

[@chrissessions2416]

You'll be checking chicken butts forever!! I have lazy poopers and have to check them often. Sometimes giving them baths and clipping feathers to clean up poop. Lol!

[@WiccanKayla]

Hey Bea! I am not sure if this is helpful information, but I have seen that a lot of chicken owners have painted the mesh on their coops black so that it is visible to see inside from a distance. Might be helpful for when your inside 🤷🏼‍♀️ you're doing fantastic! Keep going!

[@Tielatells]

I was watching a whole Nother video and ran over here. I really enjoyed watching your videos so easy and peaceful ❤❤

[@heatherinnes136]

Good luck with the baby chicks. They are so sweet and adorable

[@turnipcake3263]

i highly recomend a greenhouse, you have the space for it :)

[@johannaengman2594]

I so also want chickens. So adorable

[@ivylovesrunning]

The chicks are so adorable.

[@NicoleBeck-lv4vh]

"Got chickens in the living room" LOL - Am I the only one who got a voice over in their head of Snoop singing Gin N Juice? The line about chicks in the living room? :-)

[@brunobastos5533]

From some one that won and incubate chickens , they are hard and incredible strong , is during hatching that stuff can go wrong but even at this time they can live for 2/3 on is last reserves , they are rock solid and my adult know what to eat or not

[@jc142]

I literally just went aww aww aww the whole time you were showing us the chicks x

[@engruls06]

My husband and I only carry cash for ice cream. You two did a great job on the coop. It looks amazing and I'm so excited to see your chickies grow!

[@fabisiqueira6445]

I love the care you have for your animals! You are right, you really should research a bunch before getting an animal. I'm a vet and I can say that is a bit rare unfortunately, at least where I'm from. And baby chicks really do be searching for horrible ways to die lol Congrats on your new babies 💛

[@Chrisplainjane]

😂 glue their vent shut 😅 I’m so glad you did your research. You have also mildly scared me. Great to hear they are doing well & I am sure they ❤ you.

[@vix58]

This is the video I needed today, have a bit of an anxiety today, but watching baby chicks and building and food prep, really took my mind off of it... Thanks Bea you are the best

[@introvert22]

I couldn't handle of the pressure of caring for the baby chicks.

[@graceraego7565]

mum looks so pretty ❤️❤️❤ and very excited to see your baby chicks 🐥🐥

[@rhondaloveloveloves9551]

Who knew that having baby chicks was so complicated ?🌻They are super cute though🐥You guys did so great on the chicken coop. I'm in awe of your creativity Bea❤Enjoy your little babies they will grow incredibly fast❤🐣🐤🐥

[@pherrera234]

Bea, I'm seriously amazed by all you can do. I can't put IKEA furniture together 😅

[@meghanmcmurtry9250]

If you are allowed get a rooster and a incubator to hatch your own chickens it’s so cool!!

[@derkiathomas7748]

Bea: *mentions seedling operation* .... Me, looking over at my 3 tables worth of indoor garden. O.o

[@kayakgirl618]

The chicks... cuteness overload!!!

[@backyardbreeze112]

They came to the post office? I used to live on the western slope and they were sold in feed stores. They are the cutest things ever...

[@jessnpenny2105]

You should try the Mychelle sun shield in light/medium it’s a dupe for ilia’s tinted sunscreen for half the price and even though it looks dark out of the bottle it works for those few days into spring Colorado sunshine. They sell it at natural grocers

[@AkenNichols13]

The lady at Tractor Supply told me to put the water directly under a heat lamp and this somehow prevents pasty butt. Don't know how, but it worked! Never had a single pasty butt.

[@turnipcake3263]

chikees are adorable. And also please get over not using short footage, I honestly miss your longer videos (like 20-30min), these 10-15min once a week just leave me wanting mooorrrrreeee (perhaps that is intentional haha). But either way, love ya Bea

[@heathereton5582]

The baby chicks are so cute! ❤❤❤❤

[@babyblue5503]

Been watching you for years. Just realized this video is the first one I’ve watched while working out. I am officially a year in of eating healthier(in moderation) and working out. This is the first time in a long time I’ve felt great. Love you and the inspiration you give all of us. 🖤🖤

[@lala-es3qy]

You are going to wake up tomorrow and they are going to be twice the size, they grow fast!!❤
