    A Southern Summer Day in the Deep South | Harvesting Elderberry and Preparing for Change
    Hey hey y'all! We love this simple, beautiful life we live here in small town Alabama. Come see what it looks like to live in the deep south. Raising chickens, country cooking, harvesting elderberries, and mobile home homemaking.
    Come join our large family as we share what life looks like in a small town in the southern United States. We live in a double wide mobile home on a one acre homestead and share our way of living here with you. We're raising babies, chickens, and food and sharing it all with you.

    I love that you thank your chickens and pet them after they lay their eggs and you gather them. That level of kindness really makes every difference🥰❤️

    Hawks are fearless creatures. I live1 mile from the county courthouse in my county (so lots of people & traffic) & I looked up & saw 1 get a bird out of mid-air & saw it flying off with the bird then just drop it bc a flock of birds was chasing it & figure it wasn't worth the hassell.

I'm going to try to look those up. Could you maybe do something where you share what other extra things like that you use or ones you've used before and liked? And what did yku mean by nature journal? Thanks! Lots of love ❤ from Nicole in Indiana

    Hi, I always just keep my chickens food full all day. Is there a reason (besides conserving feed) that you feed them once or twice a day? They seem super hungry, lol mine don't get excited about regular food just kitchen scraps and treats, I guess they are spoiled. I started off years ago free ranging them but the hawks are a problem here too (especailly in the winter) and the foxes come right up and snatch them too. Its just not possible to free range here without them getting killed. Ours do have a gigantic run so they don't seem to mind :)

    • @OurSmallTownLife
      @OurSmallTownLife  Месяц назад

      I freeze them and then use them to make syrup and jelly. We take the syrup daily during cold and flu season. I'm also going to dry some this year to have for later.
