I have no problem paying the bit extra at the markets for the free range eggs. Happy to know this is the chicken lifestyle I agree with and support. Good on you guys! Those are some happy chickens :)
I saw a similar thing over 30 years ago. In this case, the guy had the coop up on high wheels with a catwalk for the birds. He was ranging them in his dairy-cow pasture. The cows were strip-grazing the pasture with a hotwire that was moved every day. The hens were placed about 3 days behind the cows. This gave the cow pies a chance to dry some and get full of fly larva. The hens scratched the cow pies to pieces and ate the larva. This also spread the manure and nutrients out and prevented the formation of non-grazed "zones of repugnance" around the pies on the cows' next trip across the pasture. I think this was happening somewhere in the eastern US, Virginia or the like on a farm that had a diverse, high integrated organic operation.
Yeah, it’s a great idea, but nothing new. Even though it seems many think so these days. The method of raising hens in mobile coops has been going on for well over a century.
Watching the hens roaming freely and eating makes my heart feel warm! Just love animals, all animals. How can you eat them if you say you love them?? No, I don't eat them.
Cost is no consideration anymore! Knowing in part what they have been putting in food could make one go mad. Praise God that my husband trusts me to try n do what I can to keep my family safe n healthy.. Thanks for your help! God bless you always. P.s. your eggs n chicken breast are my favorite anyway 🤗👍
Since getting hens for ourselves I can't buy regular eggs in the winter. Not only do they not taste like anything, it's just not right. I was glad to see pasture-raised eggs show up in our grocery stores last year. Free-range doesn't mean they live in good conditions, just that they can move around a little bit.
Outstanding Video... I applaud this man's efforts, to treat his Chickens with dignity. We, the humans of the world were given a gift of Dominion over the plants & animals of this world.With that gift came a responsibility to treat every thing on this planet with dignity & respect. Even if you raise animals for slaughter. you can do it with dignity & respect. God Bless the Good Guys...

This video has restored faith that their are ethical farmers doing good work. Is the factory farming of animals for consumption in the US sustainable? God bless these farmers. Would be good to know what brands are selling their eggs.
Sweet, thanks for making this vid man. I just found your channel, I'm planning on doing something similar behind mob grazing cattle. I don't really care about the eggs very much but more about the soil heath and fly control. I'll look around and see what other vids you have. Got a like from me on this one for sure! Keep up the good work!
There's another video on youtube where some chinese duck farmers and harvesting naturally. Its a good one like this. Big thumbs up guys. There's a lot of unused land in this country. This is how it should be done.
Have you guys thought about mechanizing the chicken coup to have it move on its own? You could easily do it with a couple of geared motors, a solar panel, and some electronic brains. It would probably be a big time saver and would continuously creep along, giving your chickens more foraging area per day.
It's great to see a real pasture. Not always the case. Thank you for raising the bar. Very well done!

I love this! You are slow and gentle for the birds. Pasture-fed hens produce the best and most delicious eggs! The only ones to buy.
DJ and the tastiest meat :)

Pasture raised eggs are so worth the cost, thank you for showing us how you keep the hens and for feeding America!
This reminds me of when my family first moved to Idaho. 22 hens came with our house on 2 acres. The best eggs ever!!

😂 very small for 22 hens

As a poultry farmer myself this is something unique and amazing, but I'm sure to get to that point is a lot of work and money
Their vocalization is very sweet.
I love the sounds that hens make, so sweet and melodic and peaceful, they can just put you to sleep.
so nice to see, how you keep the hens in natural way of life. Thankyou
I support pasture-raised hens. Thank you so much.
Don Erskine don I was just given two dozen real free range eggs here in western Australia they taste bloody fantastic
+ soup Are you guys trying to outdo the US for dumbest shit possible? It's getting bad over there.
Lucky happy hens,this is the way they should be cared for
Great farming. You guys really care about your chicken. All animals deserve this much of respect and dignity.
The freedom of grazing is the best way. of poultry farming and other animals. congratulations .
Love the way they come out all civilised. Like cackling old women.
With a few young cheeky ones jumping the gun
That is so cool! Looks like a great way of taking care of chickens....they look & sound happy! Happy hens=lots of great quality eggs!
I just love watching this. Makes me happy that they are happy.

Loved watching the hens come out and graze! Wish every farm did it that way.... :-(
I love when I see that are still people who treat livestock the right way
I am proud of you guys doing it this way
Terri Gelbaum.terri.with me
I'm so happy for them. They look happy.
Been doing this for decades and it's a great method. Birds get fresh vegetation and bugs to eat and the ground gets fertilized.
I could listen to happy chickens all day. What a pleasant sound.
One of the most ethical farms I've never seen... Well done and spread the word of how to farm chickens :-) Respect from England :-)
Thanks!
Such a kind, good life for laying chickens, as opposed to those huge warehouses where they never see light of day. Thanks.

THEY LOOK HEALTHY AND HAPPY
I can see that those 1000 hens are the happiest hens in the world... :)
Free-range chickens. Free-range hens. I love those beautiful orange egg yolks. Now that's a real good egg
Finally chickens being kept with respect
Watching the hens roaming freely and eating makes my heart feel warm! Just love animals, all animals. How can you eat them if you say you love them?? No, I don't eat them.
They seem so happy. I think they are. You should have treat day. Throw out 1000 crickets and some red worms. Friday is treat day.
Love the natural farm life...God Bless!
Look at all those chickens.
You go boy! With that...Hoop Coop. Top shelf eggs!

Thank you! We're so grateful to be able to serve you and your family in this way.
God bless farmers like you.
I discovered moving birds at night works best for me. They do not get trapped under the steel skids, while up on the roost.
You are a great farmer those chickens are happy and that's the way it should be well done.
three million people want to watch chickens grazing in a field. This gives me hope for humanity.
This is great, because the hens get sunlight & keep their beaks on.

😮 wow! U are really a good farmer caring for the poutries' benefits .
Yep, those were the days, my friends, when eggs tasted and looked like eggs. Yum!
It's 12 midnight, I have an exam tomorrow, and I'm watching free range chickens. Somebody stop me.
man, i grew up on a chicken farm, and I wish we treated our birds this way in the old days. Traditional chicken houses are for the birds!

2:55 I love how there's one goose between all those chickens
They are so cute ! ❤
Are you clean shaven?
I guess
Jupiter Stars anh yêu em

NoNoحراااام😂😂😂😂👌
This is awesome. I’d love to operate such humane and holistic food production. Great job!
Great👍. Do you have a video of how you gather them back into the mobile coop?
Wowgreat hens a. Lot.. Yups quite difficult but it good for them.. Thanks for sharing this video.. Take care and Godbless

Did you get it going by now?

Chicken: Freedom Atlast.!!
Fence: Yeeeet.
I love seeing this video. At once, I want to raise chicken in farm at future.
Bravo, fantastice! Respect nga Albania!
Thanks!
I would pay double price for these eggs over store bought. Heartwarming to see the hens so well cared for. Heartbreaking when they're caged 24/7.
This is cool farm located in right place!

hey they should have onion necklaces sorry just had a good chicken dinner great idea thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing this with us. My four-year-old had a question. He was wondering if you raise baby chicks yourself.
I bet they would taste amazing too.
All farmers should do the same!
Do you feed them any grain? Or chicken food
And I’d like to know how many eggs you get a day
That is one amazing operation, Is there a video on how that chicken coop is built ??
I miss my Red Stars. they were incredible.
I'm pakistani we love this types of job
I'm impressed that the chickens didn't just jump out of the coop and flap all over the place.
love to see another video showing the inisde and egg collection of moble coop
LOL wait a minute there! One of those "hens" @2:55 isn't a hen at all, we've got a spy!
It's duck billed platypus. shhhh. keep it between you and i.
Very cool. Love it. God bless you.
Wonderful! So great to see.
Great job those are happy chickens !
I always had trays of grit down for my hens.
Great way of dealing with a large number of chickens. I saw a couple of geese in there with them. Are they the alarm if aerial predators come close?
They look delicious!
Beautiful. My only hope is that all free-range eggs are produced in this manner. (My family has been buying free-range for probably 20 years now)
So cute❤️
Now here's a guy who digs chicks.
I love it thats a good set-up
i love their voices , so funny
I cant wait to see them at my local walmarts shelf and eat it at home
good job bro.....now u got me hungry,ready for scrambled eggs with tortillas in the morning. ps and a hot homemade salsa.
Why so many dislikes? This is awesome
Wow a lot of hens
