This is a very old video, pulled from Abundance Plus. The enjoyable Justin is not back.

I like the door idea! I made my own 40 gallon brooder about a week ago for my new chicks. My hen hatched 11 and they’re all doing very well and still alive! Going to build a larger brooder this weekend… they’re outgrowing that thing FAST!

A cheap kids playpen works too for more chicks/ longer brooder time if needed!

I use that same container with pine shavings. Instead of a lamp, I now use a Brinsea EcoGlow. Love it!! I will never use a bulb again.

This is so helpful. I want to get some in March and was looking for a great set up

Justin, thank you for teaching new people. Keeping chickens is easy and productive Thank you so much Learning stuff myself Ps who doesn't want to see babies

"...and its Spring..." my granpa always said now its planting season..in January and he was a successful farmer of food and chickens.

I've always raised hens. I'm getting my first batch of chicks this spring - such valuable information. Thank you sooooooo much! Saved to my favorites so I can reference back, especially on the water and feed. I may also try the container (??) Depends on my cutting skills for the door :) Thank you thank you thank you

I love this guy he has the most calming voice!

Your box is very organized for your chicks.

With our first chicks arriving late spring, this is so helpful! More info on what to do as they grow would be great too. We learn so much from you and appreciate you sharing your wisdom with us! Blessings!

im loving these old vlogs hugssss

I’m a fan of yours. You’ve figured it out and it’s helped me realize a few things about how life should be. And I thank you. I’m on my path to work in environmental sciences. Thanks for your tutorials and wisdom you and Joel both.

Blessings to all!

Thank you Justin! 🙏🏼 We are getting our first group of "ladies" this year so this was perfect timing for me. When I saw the title I said, "Oh, good! Let's listen to Justin... this will be delightful AND informative!" As always!! 😁🙌🏼💯

Wow, Justin, what a great tutorial on the beginning of raising chickens. You make it sound really easy :). Thank you, Liz

I wish I had this video for my first chicks. It took me a while to learn how to work smart not hard. I'm going to make a couple of the feeder stands. That brooder, if tall enough, might make a chill out space for a sick/hurt chicken. Thanks for this great tutorial. Susan NW Georgia

We will be doing a similar set up next month for 80 chickens 😯. I may lose my mind with all of that chirping inside, but we are off grid so heat lamps aren't an option. We will be doing it the old fashioned way!

Thank you so much for this info! Super helpful because we're gonna be first time chicken owners

Really good! Thanks Justin!🤗💜🤗

Thanx bro

Totally enjoying this video again Justin ! And your voice is much better . Have you rest your voice a bit 😉. By the way , happy Chinese New Year in advance and wish you a wonderful prosperous year ! Healthy and strong like a tiger ! And don’t forget ! Enjoy the Olympic!

This is an amazing video. Thank you so much

Thank you

We put a second hand store plastic doggy gate over the top of our chicks brooder. It extends to what ever length container we are using. Works fine.

EXELLENT FUN info. GREAT EXPLANATIONS

You have do idea for how much I needed this video just was thing about it for the last 3 days xD

there's a Dinosaur ahhhhh! 😂

Justin I will git mor chickens this year Thank you for This Video

Chickens are first on our list 🤩🤩

thank you!!!!!!

What do you think about germinated seeds to give them as food as well?

What is the feed?

This is a fantastic video! Next time we are raising chicks I’m definitely going to use the screen to keep food and water clean. I’m also going to do the magic water and fermented feed. Do you do fermented feed for your grown hens?

Awesome

I bought 16 acres for my kids and I last summer. I've always wanted to live in the country and be self sustaining. We are getting our first ever chicks this May. I'm so nervous lol

Thanks 👋❤️🙏

Great, instructive video. Thank you very much! Watching your video's every day of the week. One question about the "Magic Water", how long do they drink this water? When do you put them on tap water? Thanks in advance. Greetings from The Netherlands!

Hi, I was wondering how come I don't see a lot of people using hemp straw but from what I hear, it is much better than pine shaving. What are your thoughts on the subject?

Justin I love your videos so much so I decided to buy my own jersey cow I raised her and her calf and I was wondering if the fresh milk has a certaint smell not bad but different from store bought milk

@GetToTheFarm

2 жыл бұрын

fresh milk will smell different than the milk you are used to as it has all the cream still in it.

Do you have recommendations for setting a brooder up inside my existing coop to keep older chickens from getting to the chicks?

How long does the fermented food last?

❤ just sum new chicks

How often do you feed the vinegar water? Do you alternate just plain water? Also, do you only feed fermented feed? Or Do you occasionally feed plain chick feed? Thank you so much for your work!

I like the little dinosaurs with little chickens

omg the dinosaur..... had me rolling

I made an egg incubator at home from your old refrigerator and it holds 150 eggs❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

So we just got chicks for the first time yesterday!! 🥰 and I did your magic water... my question is... after the they go through the 1/2 gallon of magic water, do you then just give regular water or is this your chickens water forever?

Where can I find the links to the products talked about in the video?

Love the raptor LOL

Hi !! Where can I order checks? Thanks

At 3 weeks do you put the chicks in the regular chicken coop outside?

What size are the pieces of wood for the wood frame you put on top of the storage container?

The problem with pine shavings for me is that it makes the house way too dusty and it also affects the chickens respiratory system as well as ours

Halo

How long do i give this water to them ?

How do homesteaders treat their chickens for parasites, and leg mites? My Mom grew up on a chicken farm and she doesn't remember anything about this issue. Lately, I have noticed a brand of frozen chicken my family buys has had thread parasites in the meat. We have mo answers, so we are giving up chicken for now until we find a brand that doesn't have this problem. It's too bad we have to go without homemade chicken soup this winter.

It'll be here before you know it. Prepare.

You say half gallon of water for the recipe, but the recipe on Abundance+ says 1 gallon. Does anyone know which one it is? Videos and vlogs disagree, some say 1 gallon and some say half gallon.

Please do not use those dangerous heat lamps! Too many homes, barns, sheds and chicks have burned. Water splashed on a hot bulb can shatter it. Exposed filament can spark. Overheated bedding can ignite. 250 watts uses a lot of electricity since used 24/7 Lower wattage, safer warmer plates are better for the chicks. Warmer plates adjust easily, and can be set at an angle so chicks can go to the height they prefer. Low possibility of sparking, no shattered glass danger, lasts way longer are benefits of warming plate versus bulb.

Warmer plates can use 25 to 60 watts, depending on size. Lower wattage heating bulbs are ok, but they do not last very long, and risk of broken glass a hazard.

So you are telling me I need less space than anywhere else I am reading and that you put them outside in half the time, and now I don't know whats what

First of all I want you to know that I love your show, but I have a question for you. Why do you call your Chickens Dino's, they have never been related to Dino's, if you look in the book of Genesis in the Bible God made all of the animals on the same day. They have never evolved into anything else they have been the same animal from the beginning. If you look at the Pre-Cambrian layer there are no animal bones at all, then in the Cambrian layer (Next layer up) you find bones from every animal that has existed all in the same level. Therefore there is no evolution. 🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓
