Mojo is sooooo patient! Today though, he walked over while you were talking about chickens, like he was hinting to you, “hush up and get with the feeding, I’m hungry!!!
I’m so excited to see the baby geese, then baby goats. Prayers, comfort to Rachel,the family 🙏❤️🙏
Prayers to all. It's hard to say at a time like this but I've got a hint that you know she's with the Lord. Don't grieve she's with her Lord. Smile and say we'll see you again . God bless you all .watch you all the time.
Ohhhhh I'm so sorry about Rachel's mother passing. Rachel God will bless you. 🙌🏾..... I wrote a message before I saw your mother had passed.
Kevin Rachel ✌🏾✌🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾I'm not in Boston anymore. I always appreciate those days while I was in Boston. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 😉 I'm in San Antonio 🤪 😎 ☺️ 🤗 🙂. You blew your winter storm down here.
An avian flu outbreak and increasing costs of fuel, feed and packaging have contributed to an egg supply shortage and high prices in some parts of the country. I read this in the NY Times.
We got the snow and then it rained. We still have snow on the ground. We are having no problem with eggs. The price has gone up but what hasn't. The best thing about today is that it is one day closer to Spring!!! Hugs for Rachel.
I hope yall appreciate & cherish Smegel for the exceptional cat he is.
I sure do and I try to take him home with me but Kyah won’t let me. We sure love that silly cat.
I’m hoping that one day there will be a nice video just about the cat !! Taking excerpts from earlier videos to describe his habits and eccentricities. His life story. By the way, how do they spell his name??

Hi Kevin, I don't think tractor supply would damage their good name for a few bags of chicken grain. That's what really makes no sense.
I’m so sorry Rachael for your loss! Prayers for you and your entire family!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great value eggs at Walmart are $5.80 a dozen. I am in Minnesota. Condolences on the passing of your wife’s mom and your mom in law. It’s tough to lose a parent.
Praying for healing for the family. Each day is a new day. She will always be in your hearts 💕. Can't wait for kidding time. Blessings to HHF 🙏
Prayers for Rachel and her family with the loss of her mom. Very hard to go through. I never realized how many times I went to call her or tell her something. We quit using TSC feed awhile back and started getting our feed from another source. Our chickens have not slowed down at all. We have been giving our eggs away to 9 different families and still have plenty for us. Bo Morehead explained alot in detail after alot of research.
Understand completely, I want to call my Dad all the time.
Where can Bo be found?
Egg prices in some parts of the UK are rationed .You can only buy 12 eggs at a time. As you have said kevin the world has gone crazy. Love and prayers to Rachal ,her family and yours.
Chickens molt every year which stops egg laying for a period of time. With my flock it's usually around 2 months in fall. I bought eggs for the first time since 2018 and paid almost $4 for a dozen. Also the bird flu has affected many egg producers so as with most other things inflation has taken over.
I think Dutch is correct, the feed referenced , are using less protein , people switch or free range and the eggs return. I think it has more to do with profits.
Some say it's not that they're putting something in to stop them from laying it's that they are skimping on the ingredients because of inflation. But who knows, the world is crazy now. Can't wait to see babies on the place. Continued prayers for Rachel and family. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
I agree, Linda.
Watch Doug and Stacy! He did an excellent job in explaining this issue. Tractor Supply gets the feed from a big corporation they don't make it themselves. I do believe this Kevin. They don't want the population to grow their own food or meat. Glad you don't buy from corporations but a local feed company. Watch Doug, he can explain much better.
There may be something to the Tractor Supply conspiracies, I notice your dogs have not been laying any eggs lately.😊
lolllllll my coffee just went all over the floor;;;;good one girl;;;
Too funny! 😂😂😂🥤💦 I just spit out my drink, too.
@@joannbillings2799 that was classic;;;;lol;
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I had to laugh when Smeegle kept popping up behind Kevin in the bin
I only fed my chickens tractor supply layer feed, scratch and black fly larva, mine never stopped laying eggs. They slowed down during the freezing at Christmas, but instead of 3-15 eggs a day, we got 6-9, but I feel that is normal, because some of them were moulting.
LYSINE AND Methionine ARE THE AMINO ACIDS THAT HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM COMMERCIAL FEED.
That's why your girls aren't laying.. NOT LIGHT and weather.
Seems like someone just started a Tractor Supply Co. Rumor, my chickens always had feed from them and I still get eggs daily.
I came to say basically the same. We have 25 hens. I've been feeding producers pride feed and scratch. We also supplement with house scraps, plenty of forage and sunflower seeds. I haven't had anything slow or stop out of the norm.
@@YourValhalla Well, then you can explain why chickens won't lay eggs for more than 5 months (at age 8 month old chickens). Many of us discovered its the feed, and when it was switched, they are now laying again. It don't take 5 months for any bird to NOT lay any eggs. Amazingly enough, people who say they still get eggs are often free ranging which most of us cannot.
@@tamerapatterson6967 Do you free range or add to the feed?
My boyfriend raises chickens. He said the Avian Flu has killed a lot of chickens creating a shortage and a high demand for them. According to him, some companies are literally going to chicken farmers and offering them a higher price than what they’re currently getting. That seems like a more logical explanation that the Tractor Supply rumor.
Prayers for Rachel. God Bless all of you guys.
Love those clutch of geese 🥚 🐓🐣🐥
Great video! I loved seeing the goose eggs and am excited to see baby goslings! I've been hearing that people think the farm pride chicken feed company might have cut corners to try and keep prices down and in doing so has caused the chickens to stop laying eggs. As you said, I doubt that commercial farms are using tractor supply's feed so this is probably only affecting the small farms and homesteads.
I also heard the bird flu is responsible for the death of millions of chickens and that's why the shortage/price increase in the store bought eggs.
Prayers and thoughts for Rachel and the family. God bless you guys
I’ve been using producer pride for a long time, our chickens have been fine but my ducks haven’t given us eggs in a year. When this story broke I switched to Purina after 1 day we got an egg from our duck. Could be coincidence, but definitely makes you think.
Producer's Pride is made by the same corporation as Purina. I don't know how much credibility to the theory that the feed is compromised, but recommend that you stick with a private feed mill or even better grow your own feed
You do realize that Producers pride and Dumor are made by Purina right?
Wild guess - Could be the Purina or whoever are not putting the same minerals in their mix as the other companies are. So lack of certain minerals are making a difference. My grandmother's chicken feed & what we fed our chickens back in the '50s/'60s looked like grains (corn,millet, etc) & sunflower seeds Nowadays it looks totally different. We had no problems with their egglaying services (white leghorns, rhode island reds & & )
@@markp5506 Yes, I know this. However, I want people to investigate for themselves. What corporation owns Purina? What corporation owns Cal-Maine the largest egg farm in the country? Is it a coincidence that both are under the same corporation?
@@lorainewhite727 Yes, it could be that they just reduced the minerals or amount of protein in their feed. We need an independent lab to analyze the feed to determine for sure. The question I have though is if the feed is lacking, was it done as a cost cutting measure or could there be a more nefarious reason.
We must keep in mind that a lot of the people complaining about their hens not laying as much are first time backyard/homestead chicken farmers. Hens will naturally decrease their laying activity due to the shorter daylight hours and the cold of winter. Mine have significantly decreased and I don't use a Purina feed. The local feed I do have out for them barely gets touched as there is plenty for them to eat in the yard.
Please tell Rachel I’m still praying for her and I love her I know she’s hurting I pray God’s loving arms around her for peace and comfort knowing her mom is there with Him and watching over Rachel and those precious babies Gd bless her and you have patience hold her let her cry even years to come when she needs to and she will I know I do. Rachel watch for the cardinals it’s your loved one letting you know she’s there
I love seeing and hearing all your animals and a glimpse at the rural life. 🥰💕❤️👍👍. Free range, scraps and eggs shells are great for the chickens. Growing up only our confined chickens got commercial chicken feed. That was almost seventy years ago and we had plenty of eggs for a family of ten…
Good video. The critters all look good. I think it is cost cutting by the manufacturer, not a conspiracy by Tractor Supply. I am in Nebraska. Avian flu has wiped out massive flocks of layers!!! One was upward of 50,000! So, there is the egg prices going up... prayers for the family!
If the TS crumbles do slow egg production, find another... support local instead of big box.
Go and watch Doug and Stacy!
👍 Avian flu wiped out or mandatory disposal of entire flocks on several egg farms. As it takes 6 months or so for hens to lay. Several million chickens removed from production takes time to replace.
Avian (bird) flu has hit a lot of big commercial laying houses. All those layers were destroyed & you should have heard about it on any agricultural news sites. That's the reason for the egg shortage. We have our own small flock of layers which free range & get organic laying pellets from TSC. As someone mentioned previously, they will stop laying during molting.
You are the pied Piper for the chickens and ducks. 🥰
Little Sebastopol goslings, how exciting. You were almost sprung at the nest, I definitely heard some hissing, you are living on the edge Kevin🤣 I know you don’t need anymore, however you should be able to sell them. So far there has been no egg supply issues here in Australia & prices aren’t too bad🤞🏼Take care & cheers 🥰
I had to get my cell phone to give you a 👍🏼. TV RUclips wouldn't let me. 🤷🏼♀️ Don't know what's up with that. If you ever see that I didn't give you a 👍🏼 then know that the TV RUclips is acting up. And I can't leave a message thru the TV either. Y'all do great videos and I love seeing you interact with your animals! You conversate with them like I do! 😅 Lum 💖
i worked on my great grand parents farm every thing was old school home grown and they grew and did their own feed, i loved helping out on the farm.
Heard Doug from off grid w/ Doug and Stacy, talk this story. Doug went on to show how they make their own chicken feed. In Ohio, Indiana, the bird flu was not a good thing to happen, that with high gas prices, this will trigger a price hike across the country. Like everything this too shall pass. Thumbs up from west central Ohio. Blessings to you and yours.
And Doug did NOT make one single “accusation”. He provided information, as many responsible homesteaders would do. Having a conversation and asking questions does not equal conspiracy.
It's not that they are putting something bad in... it's what they may be leaving out, for cost cutting, or whatever reason
Noah was a conspiracy theorist until it started raining.
Darlene you’re spot on with that comment 😉
I love how people label things they don’t believe or agree with as a “Conspiracy Theory”. It’s horrendously derogatory especially when those who are or have been affected are basically being called liars.
@@Joanne_uk a lot of what they’ve called conspiracy theorist are coming out to be true. I don’t hate on anybody for saying it.
Actually he wasn’t, he believed the lord and built the Arc as God commanded him. It took Noah over 100 years to build the Arc, that’s a lot of years of being a conspiracy theorist
@@punkspeed1850 my meaning behind my comment was according to other people he was considered a conspiracy theorist. I know he was not, others mocked him and laughed at him just like people mock and laugh at what they believe is a conspiracy theory nowadays.
Kevin I don’t think it’s so much that there putting something in there feed to stop or slow down the chickens from laying as it is the folks that makes up there feed has cut some corners because of cost. Personally, I think it’s just the time of year winter shorter days plus this has been such a weird winter for most of us.
I doubt that TSC would do something to damage their reputation. I agree with what Daniel Arms said that the makers of the feed may be using more fillers and less quality ingredients.
Blesses to Rachel in her family's lost
In my area in Rochester New York they're blaming egg shortage on the bird flu a rather large egg producing firm had it bad killed off a lot of layers but who knows what to believe
Doug and Stacy have mentioned all the poultry farms that have gone up in flames, accidents i dont think so
Read a story awhile back, the animal food supply chains were caught grinding plastic into powder form
and has been added to a lot of feed.
Some farmers complained about how powdery the grain/feed had been.
But... I'm NOT a farmer, and do not have first hand info.
The food supply for us all have been intentionally made to be harmful and NOT nutritional.
Conspiracy Theory means=Spoiler Alert!!!!
Eggs at our Walmart are $7.52 for 18 and $5.07 a doz. $5.49 for 18 and $3.99 a doz. at Jewel/Osco. $3.29 free range brown eggs and $3.99 Roundy’s eggs per doz. at Mariano’s (Kroger). Up in the far west suburbs outside Chicago.
I am thrilled about the geese eggs. I am praying for Rachel and her family for their loss. I lost my Mom a few years back and I still miss her. I recently lost my sister and that was really hard to take. I believe it was because of the second COVID shot because she already had a bad heart. As soon as she got the shot she ended up in the hospital several times before her death.
We were watching a video from a woman who's been researching what's going on. It took her awhile to get to the bottom of things, but she finely found some answers.
You know how large corporations are interconnected with OTHER corporations. Many holding controlling interests in other companies, that can go several layers deep. (They DO that to end run anti-monopoly laws.)
Well she discovered that right before the laying issues cropped up, a subsidiary of Purina became associated with some of the largest egg producing conglomerations, none of which are seeming to have laying problems. Their smaller COMPETITORS however ARE having laying issues.
Feed manufactured by Purina and it's subsidiaries is distributed by MANY outlets under many brand names. Is it possible one of those outlets is Tractor Supply?
There doesn't seem to be any issue with feed sold under the Purina brand name. But then you would EXPECT a large conglomerate like Ralston Purina would take all necessary precautions to prevent such issues from being associated with their OWN flagship brand, that would be bad for the bottom line.
I have seen chickens that haven't laid since July start laying in the middle of winter just by changing their feed. Pontificate all you want, it's real
I saw somewhere yesterday, that Land Of Lakes is one of the culprits. I didn't even know that they had chicken feed. 😕
I live in Southeast Wisconsin by Lake Michigan and we got a foot of snow Saturday. First real snow storm this winter. We needed it. We're really behind.
I get my chicken feed from Tractor Supply for my few chickens. I have not had any problems but they are free range too. I get eggs everyday.
I don't know about the feed but I'm in UK and bird flu has wiped out a lot of commercial egg farms as well as wild birds and some backyard chicken flocks and we've apparently got a national egg shortage as well,I'm glad I've got my own chickens n haven't had to buy eggs since 2019,it is normal for chickens to slow down in winter as you know but most flocks will still lay a few,I only own 10 bantams now (polish, silkies and gold tops) and I've had a steady 1-3 over past month but they are starting to pick back up this past week,I don't have a lot of options on different feeds but I have found one that works for me,(heygates layer pellets in UK) plus vegetables etc what we grow 😊🇬🇧👍
Please treat your animals with kindness and love 🙏😘💘
I know that this is a year late but opposums absolutely go crazy for ticks. It's like candy to them 😊❤
EAT 'UM! A GOOSE HERE IS $145+ NO CHRISTMAS GOOSE FOR ME THIS YEAR OR LAST YEAR FOR THAT MATTER! STILL PRAYERS FOR RACHEL. 🙏🏻 LOVE YOU, KID'S ❤️
Eggs. Pancakes, French toast, devil eggs, cakes, etc. Yum
Kevin, what the problem is with TSC is that Producer's Pride and another of those unnamed layer feeds, are low on a few nutrients that are suppose to be in the feed. The missing nutrients are Lycine, Metheolow9, and cystine. What has happened, is when people were feeding the lacking feed, that suddenly their quail or chickens stopped laying, even though they were getting plenty of feed, water, and lights. The way to supplement the feed, is to cook rice and lentils together. When it cools, you offer it up to your birds, and within 2 or 3 days, they start laying again. Some have said that some of those minerals came from a factory in Germany, that burned to the ground. Love seeing you all. Blessings. Oh, and yes, I am still raising quail, thanks to you.
Well you get serenaded every time the ducks & geese get fed. Weren't the white geese hard to find. Now when they ate born you can cell some.
Everyone looks good ! Hopefully the eggs will go down cuz I love them. Mojo is so laid back I just love him! Liskee & Cora are awesome also. Take care & 🙏🙏 continue for Rachel & your family. 🤗❤️😍🕊
I knew a guy that had a big egg laying chicken farm. His chickens a was all in cages and he would buy his feed by the truck load. No bags of feed at them places. So TS wasn't in it.
When I was a kid and we had chickens they free ranged and I would feed them the same feed Daddy had for the mike cow. We had 34 hens and always got between 2 dozen to 34 eggs a day.
Love you'll stay safe and God bless.
Dan 🇺🇸
We buy our feed from Tractor Supply and we haven't seen a reduction in eggs. In South Texas here.
I paid $14 back in Dec for plain eggs, commercially produced and HAD TO BUY 36. I usually buy free range brown, organic or from a chicken lady, but the last she sold me went bad real quick so I think they were old eggs n I quit buying from her. I don't want salmonella poisoning........lol.............Thinking of Rachel every time I see you. Can't wait to see her again, and the kiddo's. Love to you all.
The latest I have seen is that feed is all produced by Land O'Lakes who also own the largest egg farms in the country. The theory is that the company is trying to limit what the backyard chicken owner can produce so that they are forced to buy eggs from companies owned under that same corporation.
So far it is still only a theory, but the facts are lining up.
I watched a video from a lady who has chickens. She said hers stopped laying in September. She said others she talked to said the same thing. She said one chicken escaped and was out eating free range and started laying eggs again, so they let them ALL OUT to free range and now they are all laying again. She also said none of them will TOUCH the feed. She didn’t say where the feed was from but that others said it must be the food they were feeding them making them stop laying because they all those who had them go free range started laying again.
May the Lord bless and protect you and your family and the animals
Amen!
There are so many stories going around about the shortage of eggs. I have heard there was a major loss of laying hens, that there was many farms that closed, and I heard about the tractor supply issue. Good luck in finding out what is really going on. Since I posted the price of eggs here in Michigan they have gone up from under 4.00 to over 6.00 per dozen. I can only hope that when the hens start laying in the lighter days we see the price come down. I remember not to long ago breakfast was a cheap way to eat. Memories.
Eggs going up in price in the uk also. Great job thanks. Chris from England
When I was young our granddaddy would have us help him make grain feed for all their animals on the farm.
I heard there’s a shortage because a lot of chickens have died from the avian flu. Also I heard that whoever is producing the feed has cut back on one of the additives to cut costs and that has affected the egg production. At Trader Joe’s they were completely out of eggs a few times. I bought a 20 egg flat from Smart and final and it was $13.20
Probably ppl hoarding eggs like they do in Iowa and missouri..
Thank you Christine. I wish people would stop talking about this unless they have direct information about what has been said by the responsible people of the homesteader community and what is being said by the click baiters. Please people, if you have not directly informed yourself of what is going on, refrain from spreading rumors about what IS being said.
Its close to 25.00 bucks at walmart here in clorado.
@@elizabethmonroe5791 What for eggs gees what are they golden eggs??
@@gaylenewood7707 nope just for a carton of white eggs. I used to be able to buy the same carton for 7 bucks. 1 dozon is 6 bucks. 18 eggs are between 6 and 9 buck depending if their extra large eggs.
It's Purina brand feeds, not Tractor Supply's own brand of feed. You can find Purina brand feed all over.
The Bird FLU has something to do with the current egg and chicken prices as well as many Chicken houses and Processing plants that have been destroyed by fire last year. I have seen many complain about not getting any eggs, not a reduction in eggs - no eggs. People who free range their chickens have had no issues, not that I read about anyway. I live in town and will be getting chickens and they will be penned up due to Eagles, Hawks, Skunks, Opossums and stray cats, so I will be mixing my own food for them, plus table scraps.
Kevin Off Grid with Doug and Stacey did a video about it, and it's very informative. Apparently he had been hearing the same thing and from what my understanding of it is this. Producers Pride is their store brand and supposedly whoever makes it either changed their formula or is actively putting something in it to cause the chickens to stop laying. Now this is for backyard, homesteads, and small farms that have small flocks. I just got hens this past March and I don't use that brand, just because other brands have more variety of grains in them even though the Producers Pride is cheaper. In the video from Doug and Stacey they show how they mix their own grains and seeds to feed their chickens. I don't know if there's any truth to this but why not just change brands? Some say they have and their chickens started laying again. If this is a conspiracy to stop us from having our own hens and eggs, why would all the other producers do it and why would they want to lose all that money they're making? I just don't think it's true. My hens don't eat that much of their layer feed anyway. They like their scratch grains and blackoil sunflower seed, and kitchen scraps. I also give them a few cabbages a week, Kale and Spinach just because I live in town and mine can't free range. I give them meat scraps and fat that I trim off my meat.
I personally don't think Tractor Supply is in charge, and maybe not aware. Shortages cause them to substitute or change formulas.
Well I've seen ppl at walmart getting shopping carts full of eggs they just wipe out the egg shelves and leaving none for anybody else to buy any..
@@gaylenewood7707 that’s crazy! Why do people do that? Why not just purchase what you normally do? Don’t they realize they are making a problem by doing that and because they are hoarding others have to go without entirely? Just makes me shake my head and can’t believe how some people act.
@@leannekenyoung Well some think that covid is making a comeback and think the government is gonna put us all under another lockdown they listen and read too much news..
@@leannekenyoung Well the dumpster behind the Walmart I go to is full of food ppl overbought and realize they have no place to put it so instead of giving it away or return they just toss it in the dumpster and it's stupid but ppl hoarding is the reason for the food shortage.
I'm in the NW US. I've had no problems, but don't buy TS chicken food. If there is a problem , it's probably due to cutting an ingredient back or out of feed due to availability or supply.
I’d be afraid of lawsuits from TSC if everyone continued saying they they put things in the food. Darn these conspiracy theories are out of control and it’s hard not to think about them. Your a smart person Kevin you’ll do the right thing. Continue doing what you’re doing because you’re doing an awesome job on your farm. I’m always watching your videos I guess I am Team HHF.
People can’t be sued for voicing an idea or opinion, it violates our First Amendment rights! Get to know the constitution, before you lose your freedom? As far as “conspiracy theories” are concerned, look at Black Rock and their ties to the WEF, try not to to stay asleep?
I just left the same message. These people are actually saying that they put something in the feed to drive up the cost of eggs... To me that could be considered deformation or something... And if Tractor Supply losses customers because of this they could take action. Plus I don't think they make that food I think Purina makes it so that would be too big companies coming after them... My advice to Kevin was to stay as far away from that discussion as possible...
If Tractor Supply sued, the defense would be allowed discovery that TS might not want exposed. Not to mention the defense would test the chicken feed. I don't think they have a leg to sue on. They could claim ignorance but that's about it. It would be up to the defense to claim they knew.
You’re doing a great job Kevin, being in the city all my life,I really enjoy ur videos
I liked the “thumbnail” of the last video sowing a goat took on the Polar Bear!
I don't think tractor supply is responsible for the egg shortage. I believe it has to do with the feed and change the feed up so the chicken's will start laying again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for sharing have a wonderful day ❤️ 😊
WE HAVE TO TAKE THE BAD WITH THE GOOD''' AND THANK GOD FOR OUR BLESSINGS !!! GOD BLESS AND PEACE TO ALL...
My daughter keeps me in eggs. She tells me mom I have to go gather the eggs and I tell her yes go gather that pot of gold. They taste so much better than what you buy in the store. I boil my poodle Cooper an egg sometimes and he will only eat store bought. 😂 Guess he is a city dog.😂
Iol, don't go near the goose nest. You got lots of eggs.
Thinking that , could be someone putting fear in to people. To buy from a certain store/company. Never heard of that. How you doing Rachel?
😊🇨🇦🙏👍🤗
I had egg layers for years and ducks. Chickens need 2 to 3 times the amount of feed as they do during the summer. Second and most important, putt a light in the coup to wake the birds up at 530 am and don't shut the light off until 9 pm. I never lost production of eggs with this method. My layers produced as many eggs during the summer as they did during the winter. Mind you, I lived in Northern Michigan at the time. Off grid. It easy
... Coop, even ...
Geese are mighty protective mamas❤️❤️🙏🙏
Great video Kevin, glad you were able to get your own eggs. Good luck with the goose and her eggs, hope she is almost done laying her eggs. ❤❤❤
Same here in Ky also Kevin. I’ve heard the same things on here about Tractor Supply. I don’t buy my feed from there either, and all my chickens r still laying everyday. I raise mine the same as u, they roam around eating from all the grass, but I do still feed mine, LoL. But no problems with the egg laying here either 👍 we don’t sale our eggs either, we give them to family & friends also. I love ur all’s geese, they’re absolutely beautiful. I just wouldn’t wanna be chased by no dang goose, 🤣
Hi Kevin, I love watching your videos. Your farm setup is just what I'd love to have. I do want to let you know that I think you might want to get Kora's hips checked before you breed her. In the past few video's, I've seen her walking stiff and slightly limping. She's awfully young for that. It might be the cold. It might be she overexerts herself, but it is concerning. For reference, I've been a dog trainer for about 40 years now. I've seen a lot of dogs and dealt with many with skeletal issues.
How is Rachel doing I've been praying for her and you and the kids and her father's hope everyone is doing great
Our tractor supply pulled all their layer feed. In northern Kentucky
hugs from pam and john keep it coming on video we love you
Prayers for Rachelle and you family. ❤🙏
We have 4 ducks, 9 geese and ….. a whole bunch of chickens! I laughed out loud for real!
My chickens always slow down in the winter. Less daylight hours 🤷🏻♀️. Some people will put lights in the coops to extend light for a few hours. I just take what I get and it’s enough 😊
I picked up a dozen large brown eggs this morning for $3.29. Plenty of eggs on the shelf,
I really think that it is a bunch of bunk! It started a while back and it picks up steam as it goes, as more people seem to run out of content they have to talk about something.
That is why I love your channel,, your not one of the sheep. I follow several people, and it seems that one person buys a tractor and everyone buys a tractor, someone buys a skid steer and everyone buys a skid steer, and they say it's a gamechanger. But now you have to buy the attachments to go with it, somebody buys an mini-excavator and then you know the drill, guess what everyone wants. I guess that that is ok if you are one of those channels with over a million subs. Heck I guess they don't know that you can rent a piece of equipment when needed for an odd job or two.
Give your family a big hug and tell Rachel we are thinking of her.
Hello Kevin
We mix our own feed. (I’m allergic to shellfish and it’s common enough to find oyster shells in layer feeds - we’ve never bought it).
Our small flock went through a period of almost no laying at all through the end of November and all of December. It was overcast a lot, very cold and our hens were molting.
Longer days, new feathers and eggs are being laid daily, again.
We free range and offer the hand blended feed, kitchen scraps, various greens, and other delicious offerings.
I think the Avian flu has taken a toll.
Send prayers to Rachel and you all.
Blessings ❤
Well Kevin, as far as the egg shortage, and the outrageous prices on them, you might go over to "Deep South Bama With Mr. Tom", here on youtube. He recently made a few videos about all this going on with eggs, and his videos are quite informative, and Mr. Tom does his research extensively; so you might give him a watch. Keeping Rachel and all the family in prayer.❤❤
Your chickens get plenty of sunshine. I think that is the key.
Love your videos Kevin!!
Can't wait until we get baby geese. That's so exciting. Maybe you can sell them and make money?
Kevin, it's not what's being added to the feed, its a couple of nutrients they have removed from the chicken feed that aids in egg production. I think Methionine and Lysine has been removed.
Daniel arms is like you. He free ranges, but his take on the matter, is may be a manufacturer issue, due to supply costs & cuts in making it. I agree. Corporations are known for cutting costs. It would not be a distributor issue.
Tractor Supply is not the only one that sell the pride brand of feed
Your comment about feeding is brill bc your doing well
Hi Kevin. Would love to know who actually started the tractor supply like Chinese whispers and the chicken feed. From everything I’ve noticed the chickens that do the best are the free range and no feed ones. Have a good week take care and god Bless. 💕🙏
