Keep a nice even moisture, use a lot of compost in the top soil profile and you will see amazing daily harvests just like me!
There was a study in I think it was Sweden where they gave each family of a town 3 chickens. It drastically reduced household waste and provided the family with a supply of eggs. It would solve 2 problems if done in Australia. I know every household could not do this but any excess eggs could be gifted to neighbours that didn't have the land to do so.
some ppl just Won't
get their hands dirty.
@hefzRobb3803 for sure they don't but I wonder how many people would put their hand up if given the opportunity and local government didn't have so many restrictions.
Thanks so much for sharing this, super interesting about the waste management side of things
Up to them, it's not for everyone. They will probably barter other services
@@martysgarden yes imagine solving 2 problems at the same time! If I find the link again will share it.
Just bought 125ha in the Toowoomba region tempted to open it as a community farm.
Congratulations on the purchase, a community farm sounds very interesting. I believe they have pulled this off in parts of India creating Co-op style community farm. An example: People lend money or buy shares in start up farmer and then buy the product off them also to support them. It's a very interesting concept
@ it is an interesting idea would love to assist people offsetting some of the cost of living.
Looking at legal and tax structures will be first o; list.
Would people want to invest, whom will run the operations what will they be paid, whom will pay any employees.
It’s not like a Geoff Lawton educational farm where people pay to learn or work for free as part of their studies hoping to start their own farm in the future.😊
Nothing wrong with that!
@ legal for sure would be public liability etc, but concept would be people can have a portion 1 to 2 acres to grow what they want but livestock would be a consortium of sorts where people assist in feed and related expenses but then only pay butchering weight for product as the farm it’s self already has a 20m x 10m cold room and several 30 x 20 grow tunnels. I have previously on other farms had people purchase for example a steer it gets to weight the mobile butcher comes out charges say $2 per kilo cut weight and they pay that and walk away with the meat. But always open to suggestions and information people have. Currently I have 139 frozen fresh culled meat chickens an average cost to slaughter was $4.19 and I was selling birds at $7 flat
With the right like minded people thatll work a Treat.
Thank you Marty,🇦🇺I’m on a normal size suburban block, I have done the three hens in the backyard, which our family learnt from. Still growing lots of veggies in Melbourne.
Thanks for sharing here Tracey
What did you learn ?
@ When you first get chickens, usually until they are mature enough to go into their hen house and run, you must nurture them under warm lights, feed and then you must feed them with chicken feed pellet mix, which can be expensive, supplemented with food scraps.
They don’t lay eggs continuously for their entire lives. Once they stop laying eggs, the hens still need food pellets until the end of their natural lives. We enjoyed the family experience, but not a sound financial move. It ends up expensive.
The main reason currently for egg shortages is the avian flu outbreak. Around 2 million chickens had to be culled.
Add to that the phasing out of cage eggs in the major supermarkets and you can understand the shortages.
Eggs will be more expensive but hopefully, most of that increase will be passed on to the producers and not boost profits of the Big 2.
Great info Marty. Cheers!
Thanks for sharing
they are trying to pull another Armenian genocide and Bolshevik Revolution
It really is insane. I'm a spokesperson for the small pasture poultry producers in Tasmania. The operational costs have gone through the roof. In large part because of regulatory changes and overreach.
But the part that hurts the most is NRE Tasmania (the primary industry department) has brought in regulation that has not be published which essentially makes it impossible for new small egg producers to start up because of incredibly expensive infrastructure costs which was never needed only 3 years ago.
To top it off, Tasmania imports 50% of its eggs from the mainland.
Take it from me, everyone should get a half dozen Hylines for their own backyard because eggs are heading to be a luxury protein source.
Hi lived in Tas. Before moving to wa. It appears the state has gone further down the gurgle. Your suggestion is spot on value add by using quality tas timbers for hen houses on wheels. Which part of the state are you in?
@philcleaver2703 in the NW near Burnie
Wow, Adam mate!!! Thanks so much for sharing and opening our eyes to what's going on in Tassy
Perhaps the big chain stores..woolworths and Coles for example can provide a fair cost per dozen of eggs from farmers and other fruit/vegie farmers so these companies don't profit $$ big time like they have. If customers can't afford to pay the cost of a dozen eggs coles and woolworths are charging (not the cost that the farmers get ) they will have stock on their shelves and it will go bad.
Unfortunately wages need to increase to cover higher costs .this in turn pushes prices up .here in Perth my rent has gone from $440 to $800 a week in two years the bubble will burst soon.iv noticed the chook feed we buy went up $4 a bag but also went from 25kg to 20kg bags.its a flow on effect
Yep, my feed went up to this month
@@JaimeBird-n8m China's in real trouble. They started having bank runs. People are being laid off and businesses are closing. The real estate market is pretty much collapsing.
Really good warning. The signs are right in front of us!! We have been growing cut flowers but now have switched half of the field into food. Chickens and cows coming soon!
Nice one, great move!
Keep up the good work! I had 750m2 in Morphett vale turned in to a great little suburban homestead. Advertiser did a little article on us which was cool. Recently sold and bought 70 acres in the Fleurieu SA planning to supply meat and produce to friends family and local community. Seen this coming for 5-6 years. Let’s get back to basics and build community.
Nice story, thanks so much for sharing with us all here Josh
Unfortunately the input costs of all industries in Australia has skyrocketed over the last few years. It all started with fuel. Every thing needs fuel from harvesting to delivery. For example if you’re on tank water and need to buy water. the cost of diesel to deliver it has made it very expensive. If the government can control fuel costs the every thing will reduced. If they left the railroad transport instead of ripping it all out we may be in a different position now. Just my thoughts 😊
Diesel used to be cheaper once upon a time
You need to install a bore water system. Though it is somewhat conditional on the area that your in. Plus it costs about 30k. Food for thought..
@@Professor__S Plus a filter to take out the minerals.
In my area you are either hot with high calcium water or high iron.
Fuel is definitely the culprit for everything getting more and more expensive!
I am a chicken farmer and my Dad was a chicken farmer as well (eggs). I saw this coming a way back and have been figuring out new ways to do things. I'm very small scale (only about 50 birds) but am spending about $70 AUD a week on feed for them.
I love my chooks, but I definitely need to get that grain bill down! I'm thinking perennial seed trees such as elms and European ash trees, also fruit such as prickly pear and kangaroo apple. Chooks are loving the prickly pears, BTW, and eat them in preference to their grain!
Also sowing annual and perennial grain crops is part of the answer as well, especially maize, sorghum and sunflowers.
Thanks for sharing here, in South East Asia Papaya leaf is fed to keep away gut worms, they also give them duckweed which is really easy to grow
Hi Marty, thanks for this series, a good wake up call.
I’m on Central Coast NSW , great growing season, Tom’s ,cuc’s, caps thriving , been using those fruit fly bags , work great .I got 5 chooks(pets) which lay 6 eggs a week .They are old ,about 4 years and eat all our scraps plus scratch mix.
Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing here Steve
Hopefully consumers will take on more critical and strategic thinking on all aspects of their life. Especially those without the amount of land area for self sufficiency on scale that Marty has. Eggs for this purpose is much like the Canary in the coal mine. Flat,unit dweller's and denser living progress affects us all. A family of 3 to 5 can via a few pots planters on the balcony can defray and offset some of the costs of food inputs. Here in w.a. heavily involved with the community garden movement. Data on that I will forward to Marty as he is the captain of this ship. Viewers are his passengers. Some obviously can help as subordinated crew. His work passion and output does help others .
Thanks Phil, cheers mate
Important stuff here your talking about marty get thinking everyone bless you all
Bless ya brother!
Thanks Marty, consumers don't have to simply get used to it, they can buy their own chickens. It's about time people stop relying on big business.
Yes, they have choices but the general consumer who only purchases probably will just choose that it is what it is.
Your all over it mate - great work
Thanks 👍
Good on you from Margaret River WA. Liked and subscribed.
Thanks for the support Margaret River.
@martysgarden no worries. I started a vege garden in a neighbours garden last year as we only have a unit in town. I wish I could have chooks too!
Thanks Marty i do like your series on food problems ahead and think it should be a priority , the way i look at it is whatever money we spend now is cheap compaired to whats coming . Kevin
I will do my best to inform, help and hopefully come up with some simple solutions Kevin, cheers
Thinking about the future is fast becoming scary...gov could help ppl but they think its better to spend billions on sport complexes and other stupid shit that feeds their own pockets.....we need to expect better from them ...especially regarding how much they take from us just to pay their wage...which i believe is increased regularly.....while many live below poverty line
It's a huge conversation that needs to be had to start making needed changes
This egg shortage has been going on for nearly a year now and getting worse. The price is now $6 for the avg dozen at Coles and wolves....was $3 50 two years ago. Perfect example of inflation. I can see them being $10 in 2025. I've said before, all the world's currencies are in a end game death spiral. I wish I could have chickens were I live.
Hi Andy, I wonder how much they will cost in 6 months
I wouldn't put all your eggs in the egg basket if you know what I mean... one outbreak and it will be roundup time. taters, beans, nuts
Yer, I know what you mean
Totally on your wavelength Marty. Australian preppers here we come! Thanks for all you do.😊
I never thought it would become a part of my channel, but it's truly unfolding and we need to prepare. Even if it's just for savings so we can stay on top of the cost of living crisis.
Thanks Marty, I really appreciate your videos. Also I'd love to learn some tips and tricks to saving dollars on feeding hens. I'm noticing the price of feed going up ATM. And now looking into growing extra veg to feed my girls, but would love more ideas 😊 thx.
This is why we stopped keeping Chickens years ago.
If you can free range them so they sort some of their own needs it's better but here the Foxes will clean them up.
Start with leafy greens, they like Papaya, Chard, Bok Choy, and my also leaves from the Zuchinni.
Very good video thank you for doing it.
My pleasure. Thanks for watching
We have outsourced our food needs to supermarkets. As a result of them feeding us for profits we have seen. Poorer quality food, increase in food adulteration and price hikes. If people don’t become direct competition to the supermarkets, they will get what they deserve.
Everyone who lives somewhere can grow something. I set up a mint, oregano and potato pot on a mates balcony in Caringbah. He maintains them 5 to 10 minutes each day with his coffee in the morning. He gets about 5 to 10 kilos of spuds every 2 or 3 months. I swap his old pot out to avoid pests and disease. If everyone can get out of the system for a meal or 2, here and there, we can avoid what’s coming. A manufactured avoidable famine. I live on about $50 a week in summer and about $80 in winter. I’m living cheaper and the food tastes better.
Thanks for sharing, caring and inspiring here
@DougGumbumfrey totally agree supermarket fruit and veg last 2 to 3 days if your lucky the quality of produce is poor we try buy local but hard to find .
How do people in countries like the Phillipines manage to raise their chooks so much more cheaply? Surely they don’t go out and pay tons for a bag of feed (I’m thinking but maybe wrong) yet you often see ‘poor’ households with chooks running around. Btw wild bird food and duck food has gone up 10% in the last year, for some foods it’s 20%.
My wife said they mostly free range and get fed extra foods that they plant like rice and corn. However they dont get an egg a day from a bird. Chickens are more for the meat she said.
We used to have Chickens when the kids were young and we spent a lot of time and money on fox proof fencing etc but we found it to not be cost effective years ago as the price of feed etc wen up.
We may look at getting some again at some point as they're great critters to have around and home produced eggs are great.
Thanks for sharing
Feed is high but so is everything else, but I raise all sorts of thing in the garden for them to eat. Most of it I have to cook but it is worth it. Potatoes, squash, cabbage is raw,
My local egg farm after 50 years has closed down as of the end of November. When all this crap about the eggs and started I couldn't go and buy my normal two trays plus dozen. I just didn't have enough eggs because everybody all the sudden started going there because they couldn't get any eggs in the local supermarkets. Then all of a sudden the decided to shut the doors. They have two other farms but they're like over an hour drive, you're not guarantee that they have eggs on the days you go. Cheers Graham
Thanks for sharing here Graham, probably happening a few places this
Thanks Marty.
Very welcome
Here in the USA, We went from standard laying crumbles to soy free, and it's winter here...we doubled our egg production.
We've got a small flock and went from 3 to 4 eggs a day to 6 to 7 eggs a day.
I didn't realize that soy was diminishing our egg production. We just bought whatever was available at the feed store.
So now, because we hatched out more chicks because our hens weren't laying as much as we expected, we actually have enough that we are giving them away. And the store prices just keep going up and up.
Wish we knew how to get butter prices down. $4 to $5 a lb.
Thanks for sharing your story here, Stoked your able to give some away!
I couldn't find eggs today at IGA Perth. They said issues with interstate transport 🤔🤔
Not as many on the shelves here
The area I live in is a rural area and there are chook farms a couple of towns over.
In 8 years we have been told twice to keep chickens and all birds kept under cover due to bird flu and always a dramatic drop in eggs for sale.
I'd love to get chickens again but with bird flu and the foxes it's quite difficult.
We had a chook palace but foxes chewed through the wire and decimated our small flock. Can't reduce fox numbers in the traditional way as we are only on 5 acre blocks, can't poison them due to the wildlife, dog and cat population. So we pulled down the old chook palace and turned that ground into a veggie garden.
I miss having chooks but I think I'd have to go fully enclosed enclosure and deep litter them which is cost prohibitive for me 😢and the current restrictions are such that I can't bring any chooks in atm.
Sorry to hear this, sounds like it would be very expensive to set up again to keep those foxes out
Inflation keeps going up and the RBA with high interest rates have already stated inflation since well Covid but Albo on high bribing everyone with high spending inflation is locked into our economy permanently.
We have no choice but to resort back to community and homesteading we will be forced to. I had a house in WA but now moving to North Qld downsizing as I age have no choice really. I will be growing some produce at home hydroponics and kratky but would like to find a community garden in Hervey Bay if anyone knows of any. Keep ahead of what this world has and will become we are governed by self interested champagne socialists who are only interested in self promotion.
Back to homesteading! Lots of people agree in the comments
Albo is useless but if you're blaming him for inflation then you've drank the koolaid.
What we really need is to move beyond the 'left' vs 'right' nonsense and unite as _we the people._
There is a community garden in Hervey Bay they just re did it, rainbow gully was the old name, should be on the councils page 😊
Thankyou so much
You're welcome
I’m a teacher and a few years ago for science we had to see the life cycle of meal worms. One of the parents brought them in. They grew them for their chickens. Maybe one way of supplementing the feed.
Its a way yes, there are many if people want to take the time to grow their feed
What you all need is some plants that can withstand the heat and tropical conditions, that produces tons of either vegetation or seed that is high in nutrients and grows fast.
Dried water spinach (Kangkung, Kangkong, Oy Choi) contains a lot of protein dried.
It loves the heat. It needs moist soil, so does good in bogs, containers, flats, jars, buckets. Plant it close together in clumps. It is cut and come again. You can propagate it by cuttings.
Malabar Spinach grows fast. Has good protein, but couldn't find the specs on dried. It also produces edible seeds. Perennial in tropical areas. Grows up to 30 ft. Long. Could provide shade.
Moringa is a fast growing tree.
Moringa leaves, dried actually has too much protein (29% dried, 6.7% wet) but you could balance it with other plants.
You combine the above in the right proportions and you may have a healthy nutrient rich feed.
Oh, and Moringa also produces seed pods that make a healthy cooking oil. So, there's more fat.
And a bonus, the trees make firewood.
There's a video from TX. they have a tree cutting party in the late fall/early winter before the leaves turn. They strip the leaves and pods. Set the wood aside.
Bird seed (millets) is pretty high protein and drought tolerant. Some of it is so fast growing you could get 2 crops in a year.
You can buy most of the seeds off Ebay, at least here in the States you can.
Top tips and advice, thanks
Grain prices are going down globally!
Now after reading old article the cost to a small operation of a chicken farm selling at a Farmers Market sold eggs $7-$8 noe expect to pay $15-$20 due to increase of costs and for farmer to maintain profit.
Lots have to do with farming operations themselves regarding to labour costs food inputs and competition even now with bird flu.
The article was a rant,😊
Thanks for sharing Rick
A quick thought as I’m halfway thru’ this, maybe it’s a good idea to seek out the 90 plus year olds to ask them about the depression days. History books are controlled and there ain’t many in nursing homes that want to remember.
It's more the children of those in that time now, my mum is a good rescourse
I’m lucky to have my 94 year old nan who always talked and talks about those days
I'm fortunate as I am chooked up
Awesome Chris!
Learn to dehydrate eggs they last yrs in a dark cool place once oxygen is removed.
Keep the egg shells as it can be used in the garden or ground up and put into capsules for our calcium intake
Ppl start researching while we still have internet as that will go soon too.
Good tips thanks for sharing
Might be an idea to stock up on books so not reliant on the internet alone for information
I'm with you that people need to be less reliant on the system and if this means putting pressure on families by somehow putting the price up, then so be it.
Although under the new financial system inflation will be eradicated.
Better days are coming 💕
lets hope so, be great to see
Marty, In my mind this is all by design.
Do you have a tested recipe to preserve eggs by any chance?.
Thankyou for your videos🙏🤗
I havent tried yet
I go straight to the local poultry farm in FNQ. $9 for 24 eggs!!!!
Awesome tip, thanks so much for sharing!
I’ve never had a problem with paying more for freerange meat and eggs. I just wouldn’t accept anything else. Used to paying around $11-13 for a dozen very local freerange eggs.
I’m reluctant to explore having our own chooks here though as animals are a non-stop committment, forget going away ever…!
It's true it's full commitment having animals
INDICATOR BIG TIME empty egg shelves at WOOLLIES BURNIE here in TASMANIA this morning.... meh... I HAS CHOOKINS
Empty shelves lots of places currently
It is artificial inflation.
Eggscellent
👍
How is poisonous canola oil used in the production of chicken eggs?
Oils ain't oils the evils of Palm oil are well known. Ask an orang utan.
That would be a good reason to have your own chooks
Well it works the same as the monoculture that destroyed soil, plant and human health. Profit doesn’t need the 50 + minerals, trace elements, minors, organic material, etc that soil, plants and humans need to survive, we get N,P,K, insecticide, fungicide, and cancer. In mainstream farming the chooks get the same deal, AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE, CHEAP AS POSSIBLE.
Farming is in the noticeable , terminal stage of its cancer, the corporations buy up the dying farms and then they pay the cannibals, (Monsanto) to eat them last.
It's worry I reckon,,I use an organic certified feed
✌️😎
How is it that global grain prices are going down, but in Australia, a major grain producer, chicken food is more expensive. Something smells about this article.
Why they feed canola oil to chickens is beyond me.
Gotta be because it's cheap, they honestly don't care about us or the chickens
No chickens in suburbia. No way. They are as a nuisance as barking dogs. Plus they bring rats and cats have to be inside at night.
Tell them that in south east asia, they are in many places and perform extremely well. Everyone is used to Roosters crowing at night even.
@martysgarden Im telling them here. No chickens in suburbia. Dont project your narcisstic mental disorderz on me.
@@slidingdoor9055Mont Park is closed but I think you can still get help at Morriset NSW.
stocks is the most stupid way of earning money. it's not real, it's a system that will make people just do the "easy" way and gov will make it harder for the farmers to earn plus having a left government will not help at all.
Rising costs of eggs and other animal products might be a blessing in disguise. The experts have always said we should be eating animal products as CONDIMENTS anyway - which we have been ignoring for the most part.People might eat fewer eggs and fewer animal products altogether and see their health improve if they can't afford them. People's digestive tracts are designed to digest and utilize fruits and fruit-like vegetables. Those that eat mostly raw fruit and and fruit-like veg and eat little cooked foods and few animal products live the longest and are by far the healthiest humans on the planet such as the Hunzas who sometimes live more than 200 years!
Great point Emily, the meat and dairy industry will hate the idea and have promoted the lie, and probably financed the mainstream fake nutrition experts proclaiming the need for animal protein but where does a cow or some of the biggest animals get their protein from ? GRASS.
Thanks for sharing Emily, you mean the BLUE ZONES. That's where people live the longest
@@martysgarden I don't think they included the Hunzas of Pakistan, the Vilcabambans of Ecuador and the Abkhasians of Russia who live REALLY long lives in the "Blue Zones" maybe for political reasons. I think it was the CHINA STUDY where people were introduced to the idea of the "Blue Zones" which included Okinawa Japan and a few other places where people don't live nearly as long as the groups I am referring to who must eat even a cleaner more digestible diet than those in the Blue Zones
Good day Marty
Hi
Thanks for sharing the information marty i dont buy vegetables as i found the market gardeners don't put the nutrients back into the soil they just replant as fast as they canand the other thing is vegetables don't like to be eaten they oxalates and lectens this is their defense thanks marty with a not very common sir name ha.
Hi Peter Ware!
