Strongly believe that you raising your own chickens for eating is firmly in line with - not opposition to - your values. Too many people don't know how their food is raised, and are ready to eat food from factory farms whilst also condemning those that do the dirty work. It's so important that children also have contact with the way that food is made too, so they never take it for granted like some of the people who comment negatively seem to.

People would eat a lot less meat and be a lot less wasteful if they had to do this work themselves. As a vegetarian, I applaud your family for making this choice. 👏👏👏

If I’m honest, I’m glad the chickens grew up in a place where they were looked after in a loving kind place and then eaten. I don’t think I could do it myself but I know they could have gone to a very bad home where they grow up in a bad environment where they are treated badly because “they are only food”. People seem to forget that the life matters more than the end, we all die in the end but that doesn’t mean we should be cruel because they only going to die.

I love chicks more than any other creatures in this world. They are the absolute cutest ever.😍😍😍😍

This really reminds me of my chicks in my village, I watched them hatch I took care of them feed them every day but 2 months after I gotta leave them suprise! They have their own children!... They look soo cute ( in the vid )🥺 reminds me of my dead chick 😢

Honestly the best way to eat meat! You know that they have a good life and a healthy one as well! People who eat storebought chicken should do some research before commenting! Love your videos, keep up the good work. Looking forward to the aviary!

Very sweet, what a lovely tradition 😊

I love the chicken bath. I might have missed it last year. ❤️

Thank you for show from 2023

Dear Isabelle is really saying cow I am so excited for her she's speaking full joy

My goodness she has grown so fast your daughter she is definitely the youngest sister to the boys. The resemblance is uncanny. She is such a beautiful little girl and three handsome young brothers. Oh she’ll be well protected.❤❤

I love it when you do the “chick bath”😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ I don’t know who gets the most enjoyment ouf it: the children as they lay there giggling as the little chicks Walk on your tummies, or the adults watching the process. I just get the most enjoyment out of there giggles and how many little baby chicks you were actually able to get on their stomachs😊😊♥️♥️♥️♥️ Say “Cow” 🐄 😊♥️

One of my very favorite things about your is when the boys lay down and you put all of those baby checks on them… I love listening to their little giggles as the chicks pick up their little arms in on her face and their feet poke through their shirt and poke their tummies, and they giggle… It’s just the best time of innocence with them and the chicks… The chicks are unsure of their footing because you’re used to you stepping only on flat surfaces, and now they’re having to learn to balance themselves on a slightly curved surface. It’s just one of my very favorite things I’ve ever seen on your videos. Children are so true true situation. General responses are real and genuine, and I love their little voices, and I love their choice of words. And this time I like that they put protection on their eyes which I don’t know if that was their idea or the parents, but pretty smart, whoever’s idea was.!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ I show love a day the chicks arrive, because it’s also the day the giggles arrive😊😊😮😊😊😮😊😊😮

Fres like from Yemen 🇾🇪👍👍👍👍

Remind me of the good old days that we can raise chicken in home, "our" government need a licensed and pay for it since 2006, no mercy.

My family memebers ask if I ever feel sad eating my chicken but in all honestly no, I give my chickens a good life before they are eaten, chicken you get from the grocery are raised and probably never even touched grass. Love what your family does

it's awesome that your raising your own meat. also a funny coinsidence someone I know also ordered meat birds and got a golden laced polish from mcmurray.

I would love to see you guys get some lady amherst pheasants, and then crossbreed them with the golden pheasants, both with a golden male and amherst female and reverse, the crossbreeds can look really cool!!

We eat a lot of food, but 1 chicken per week usually works and we still have chicken, turkey and beef in the freezer that will last us quite awhile.

They all sound like my 3 chicks😂😂

Bernie is cute! The boys are so funny with their chick baths LOL!

Just butchered our 27 CC Saturday. We try to do this a couple times of year even though we also grow out dual purpose as well

Ha! Love the mustache pacifier!!!

AWW THEIR TO CUTEEE

When I was a kid (ironically, in semi-rural Missouri!) my parents had chickens (unfortunately I can't recall the breeds! We had an asshole rooster named Ike though), ducks (later on, when I was in middle school), goats (at two separate points), horses, miniature donkeys, and, at one point, even turkeys (that ended up flying away). My parents currently live in rural Missouri, and I've genuinely been thinking about surprising my mom with a bunch of chicks of varying breeds in the mail for her birthday (December 11th) once I have the disposable income because of you all

Something to learn: So you have the chicks grown for the meat; while the current hatched from home chicks are for the eggs?

Oh this brings back memories from 1990's When we had an acreage we would get chick's from McMurray, usually got the rare chick batch, So much Fun to try to figure out what they where! Got the broiler lot to fill our freezer too

Thank you White House on the hill for hearting my comment

You ought to contact Living Traditions Homestead for the American Bresse chickens they raise. They sell the day-old chicks. They're like the Ginger Broilers as far as growth time... 12-16 weeks, but they are great for dual purpose. Keep the pullets/hens for egg laying, large beautiful cream colored eggs... and harvest the males (less one for breeding purposes) for the freezer. You're looking at 7-8 lbs for the roosters, and they're now considered the 'Waygu' of chicken meat. Kevin and Sarah won't ship out of state, so since you're both in MO, shouldn't be a problem.

I can completely respect your take on raising meat birds. I think it's on par with Gold Shaw Farm's take-give them a great life, experience & living situation with one bad day.

0:23 "ready to play with some chicks" 💀

Awesome

Are goals are the same as yours we want to grown all of are own food and even more to donate some. I feel that being broke is only temporary and should not be looked down on for they deserve the very best in food also.

BRO THEY ARE SO CUTE THIS IS WHY I LIKE CHICKS

I used to raise my hands or the eggs.Cause I couldn't kill a hand could I fall in love with them too easily?My heart's there

so cute
