    After seeing so many horrible videos about large scale farms & how horribly the animals are treated & kept, this is a mood booster. Your animals get to feel grass under their feet, get sunlight & fresh air. I can also see that you care about their health & not being cruel, even if they will be feeder chickens.
    Thank you for being what a chicken farmer should be. 🧡

    As a person who has journeyed from interested novice to self-informed farmer practitioner, to small scale commercial poultry and egg producer, I can tell you I wish I'd had this video to guide me years ago. Heifer has laid out the complete pastured poultry program without the self-aggrandizing or fear-based hype that accompanies so many other presenter's spiels. While I'll never reach the volume of birds raised and processed by Heifer, I know from first-hand knowledge and experience, that the processes and protocols explained here can be scaled to fit on almost any size plot of land. The goals of self-sufficiency, reduced dependence on factory farming, and supporting local food suppliers can all be achieved using the techniques demonstrated in this video. I applaud the working Heifer theology and am particularly happy to see this video gently spreading the unspoken words that food security and planetary sustainability are not mutually exclusive concepts.

    Awesome! My father, Dan West, gave me the chicken house on our farm in Indiana and helped me to raise broilers for several summers to help with my college costs. I cleaned out our old chicken house, took grain from our silos, and have it ground into feed at our farm coop...and received 4 boxes of 80 chickies from Sears Roebuck. It was thrilling and awesome work for several summers.
