We Bought Chickens in the WEIRDEST Place

[@IamwhoIam333]

Several years ago I met a young family who had a very shy child. They wanted to get her a pet to help her out with her shyness. So I suggested a couple of baby chicks. So they went to the feed store and talked to the clerk and came home with 3 chick's. The best thing that ever happened to that child. She still has them and they are her best friends and she loves sharing her chicken stories. Which helped her shyness around people.

[@barbarahouk1983]

A nice heartwarming story. So glad you shared it.

[@alwho1807]

Sweet story!!

Can there be a later video showing what chicken lays which egg please? I just love your family so much, you guys are so incredible, the work ethic, the bond, and the love for nature. Thank you so much for all your videos I’m always happier at the end of the video then when I began watching it.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

That’s a great idea

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

I enjoy watching your little ones with the chickens. Your chicken supplier takes his time, and enjoys taking care of his customer/friends.

[@hcotw_king2255]

Why is he so rough with the chicks 😢( btw I know it doesn’t hurt them)

[@devium]

They are so light they barely even notice being moved around like that. It looks really rough and mean but they literally weight a couple ounces. Its why various birds who have nests really high up have their babies chuck themselves out of nests and are fine when they land.

[@Orikix]

Unfortunately, that is how it has become in such professions where you take care of hundreds if not thousands every day😢 Those chosen for the "White house on the hill" at least get a good home on their farm. Prayers to all the others🐣

[@Orikix]

@@devium Yes, you're right, but on the other hand, it's about the ethical... and whether it's actually okay to treat them that way

Really beautiful animals on your farm. Dolly has the sweetest face but I really love all the birds. Some of their colors are gorgeous.

[@maryoesterborg9397]

Love watching how your family works together with all the birds. I’m looking forward to your new calf. Continued Blessings every step of the way as you develop your dream.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you!

[@cajunchef35]

Here in louisiana, we have a lot of hot days with no real winter. When i put chicks in my brooder, i plug my heatlamp into the thermostat for my seed starting heat mats, and place the probe just under their substrate. Works like a charm. No guessing.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

We usually turn it on at night and leave it off during the day. But when we build a barn, we’ll include a chick brooder room and consider doing something like that.

[@donnamcmanus7360]

I really enjoyed seeing the whole cycle of chick to roaming adult. I'd definitely be someone who goes in to pick up 10 and leaves with 25 chicks😄 Great winter layout for the farm. I cannot believe how grown the boys are...and it's great seeing the whole family making the farm and channel successful. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@localanimal3950]

I think so

[@SallyWooten]

It's always a treat to see your family in action with your flock of birds and herd of animals, and Eli has turned into such a huge helper to have around. Uriah too! I'm so appreciative of your values and in awe of how you are raising such wholesome, well-rounded, pleasant children, and I can't wait to see all the different colored eggs that these new chickens lay! Of all the videos I watch on KZbin, I like yours the best, keep up the good work all. Oh and ps can't wait for the aviary!!! A million thank you's for doing what you do and for doing it so well!

[@lisadavila1328]

You guys really have some beautiful birds. Can't wait to see the aviary when it's completed. God bless all of you.

[@littleweirdgirl19]

Maybe try puting two other chickens in with white peacock to see if they get sick so you will know if they have something contagious.

[@dawnrasor7515]

great job cooking Eli! If you put a damp washcloth hanging out of your mouth when you chop onions they won't make you tear up. great video. loved seeing all the variety of chicks.

Hello, Janet!

[@janetharnwell7221]

I thought it was exciting seeing you choose your chickens and then seeing what they are growing into being. My daughter and I have had to move from our farm into another state and into the town, we miss all of our animals/family members (I was a terrible farmer, always wanting to keep everyone 😂) We miss our chickens terribly. (In Australia the slang term for chickens is “chooks”) 🐔🐣

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

What a great video who is the journey of a variety of baby chickens leaving the store and coming to your house and growing up to the stage there at where they can start roaming out on the grass and each of the children have their own favorite. What a beautiful and wonderful selection of color and style of feather and also feather on the feet…I know you ended up with more than you expected in terms of how many chickens you really wanted to get but as you look at them today I’ll bet you don’t regret Buying any of them, Do You??😊😊❣️❣️😊😃♥️😊❣️ I really love your videos and your family interaction. Thank you for sharing so much with all of us❣️❣️God bless you all😇🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️💕❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

Wire a dimmer switch inline to your heat lamp and then you will be able to control the heat better for the chicks. You can dim the lamp down or up with the dimmer switch.

[@qwilfish66]

Awesome video and the chickens are beautiful 🥰 I rescued 2 ex battery hens ( Isa brown ) and they are now enjoying life

[@byrdurbex]

I'll put my two cents in and say that the white peacock should be isolated. There likely is a disease or virus that he and his (sadly) deceased siblings have contracted, and he probably developed the antibodies to not be affected. It's unfortunate, but in my opinion, it is better to have one isolated peacock than a dead flock. Also, I personally do not know if you have any exotic vets nearby or if they would do a checkup on him, but if you can, I definitely recommend it. Best of luck with the peacock!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

It’s possible. We’ll see if we can get him tested for disease.

The kids had a great summer. They watched a whole new flock grow up. They get to see rotation of animals & crops. This illustrates the food chain. It makes a sustainable farm. For us we enjoy watching a working farm. I think is nice for me because it reminds me of my childhood. I get a few moments away from the insanity of the current culture.

Tip for cutting onions to avoid the stinging eyes: don’t cut the the heart (where the roots are) of the onions until the very end of the prep that is where the most aroma is from Known from experience of working in a kitchen that uses onions daily

We have a bunch of wild chickens in Guam running around all over the island. They are kind of dark where I live, purple iridescent. They are kind of blond near my favorite Mexican restaurant. They are all really big and tall. Their only natural predator are cats and tree snakes. I don't think the snakes bother them much.
