"From Hatch to Hen: How We Raise Chickens on the Cheap!"

🐓 Our Complete Chicken Setup – From Hatch to Hen | Backyard Chicken Tour

A few folks asked to see how we raise our chickens from day one, so here you go – the full tour of our chicken setup, start to finish. Whether you’re just starting with backyard chickens or you're curious how others are doing it, we walk you through every step of our process.

In this video, we cover:

🥚 Hatching chicks and early brooder setup

🔥 Heat lamps, insulation, and chick cages

🚜 Chicken tractor for outdoor transition

🪵 Roost and nesting box design

🏡 Our repurposed old corn crib turned chicken coop

🪣 Homemade feeders and waterers

🌿 How we cut feed costs and keep hens laying in the heat

❄️ Summer cooling tips, frozen treats & automatic doors

🔄 Our process when hens stop laying

🍗 Why we prefer old hens over meat birds for flavor

We keep it simple, practical, and budget-friendly, without going full organic-crazy. If you're curious about sustainable poultry raising or want some chicken-keeping inspiration, you're in the right place.
