After years of talking about it, we are finally doing it! We are raising our own meat chickens. Over the next two or three years we really want to focus on raising all of our own meat. I've done a lot of research over the years ain't gone back-and-forth on which breeds I want to do, but I decided to go with what I think will be a better fit for our family, which is the freedom ranger from freedom Ranger hatchery. I think it would be really fun to do a comparison in the future of all the different breeds to give y'all a breakdown on butcher weight, cost to raise, etc.. I can't wait to show you the chicken, tractor, equipment, electric netting, etc.! ##Homestead##Chickens##FarmLife##Homesteading##Meatchickens

Y'all know how I feel about long legs on birds if they don't have pants (aka feathered legs). They SCARE ME. Butttt...when you get sent surprise eggs you incubate them. I think I should say thank you @whitneyrosebissonnette but also...I'm scared 🤣😝

Yes, white leg horns are flighty! But this makes them really alert and great foragers. They are a relatively lean bird so they would not be what I would suggest for meat. However, they pack a punch when it comes to their egg laying capabilities! Mine are the best layers in my flock, and they always lay me huge eggs!

Welcome to chickens...where all birds are all cousins and the family tree is more like a wreath. But really, let's talk about inbreeding/linebreeding whatever ya wanna call it in chickens. This is something I did a decent amount of research on a few years ago because the idea seems pretty jarring and uncomfortable at first. I am absolutely no chicken confessional so please feel free to do your own research! But this is what the majority of my research taught me. ##Chickens##Chickens##Homestead##Homesteading

No bake protein balls! These are great to prep for kids during the week for a snack OR for an easy on handed snack when you're post partum. I doubled the recipe but if you don't want to double it- 1 cup rolled oats ½ cup mini chocolate chips ½ cup ground flax seed ½ cup crunchy peanut butter ⅓ cup honey 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Replying to @mrsbailey how soon do you have to put eggs in the incubator? The sooner the better! But I've had them sit out for 10 days and still have a pretty good hatch rate! #Chickens #backyardchickens #Incubating #Incubator #ChickensOfTiktok #chickentok #chicks #homestead #homesteading #farmanimals #farming
