We raised our first chicks, 5 of them, and now they are with the other chickens and laying.

put rocks in the bottom of the bigger waterer. it will keep them from falling in it.

Nice video everyone. The chicks are so cute. Thanks for supporting a fellow Iowan. I didn’t even know about the hatchery in Webster city. Murray McMurray until You mentioned them quite a while back. Quite the set up they have. Very tragic about the huge loss they suffered last year. To loose so many birds. What a crock 😢 Btw I saw you guys helped a friend with her garden prep. You North Carolina homesteaders are such good people. Thank you for being a good inspiration to us followers :)

The chicks are so cute! I love this time change. We have more daylight hours late and I love it.

Jason and Lorraine, I know this is nothing for you, but I my SIX chickens will ship from Mc Murray on April 3. I am SO EXCITED! BTW I am 79.😊

Busy season coming up for you all ,good luck

Enjoyed watching Lorraine throw together a delicious meal in 20 minutes!

You guys are doing wonderful on the chicks and the new homestead. Love to see what is all going on. Blessings with the chicks and they are so cute when they are tiny. Lots of work but you won't ever go hungry for sure. Good luck on all you do!

I'm always amazed how small and cute the chicks are..

I would love to see your wife do some more cooking- she’s an amazing lady ❤️❤️

The great thing about the dirt floor you can spread the used wood chips on the floor and that will keep the dust down, well until you decide to put down concrete.

It was so nice of your family to go help Bri set up her garden. I wish had you all as my neighbors. Im 64 and just started learning to garden.

I saw a tip to pinch off the first few strawberry flowers to let the plant put more effort into growing strong before producing strawberries - I did this on my strawberries in the first month before summer started here, and the plants got nice a lush before they produced strawbs!

Thank you to all the gang that helped Bre in her garden project. It looked like old times & we much appreciated seeing all the support for her & her kids. God bless you for caring & sharing.

Love the baby chicks.

enjoyed the video of getting and placing the new chickens. the meal looked fantastic. hope you all have a great week-end!

Work work work. God bless.

Wow. That salad looked fantastic.

You guys are getting into a super efficient routine awesome☮️❤️

Another year I can't believe it! I'm so happy for spring! Watching the daily chores are my favorite. I hope you guys get another 2 steers again this year. Maybe a few sheep?

1) Thanks for going with the chickens you did. 2) I've probably said it before, but your daughter amazes. She's truly a partner on the farm never needing to learn things, she just does them. I see that same trait in mum and dad, too. Smart and capable. Nice combination.

Baby chicks are so cute!

I just wanted to say that you all are fantastic for loving Bri and the kids, the way you did!!👏🏻👏🏻. Love!! The world needs more of it walked out in this life!!

Lorainne That meal looks delicious! Hope all goes well with the babies chicks, and can't wait to hear on the piglets coming! Best wishes to you all! ♥

Watching baby chicks is fun! You have a great system there! Looking forward to your updates from these chick!

YEHAWWWW!! TIME FOR THE FUN TO START!!!

That’s a great idea not adding concrete maybe that can be a compost pile! With all the critters the soil will be safe.

How wonderful! I loved that meal!

So glad all the meat chickens arrived plus extras safely. You guys have progressed such a long way- Lorraine great work at throwing together a delicious meal it is amazing how our stores pantry can save us. Cheers Denise- Australia

The baby chicks look so good. So healthy and perky and so cute. Glad you have electricity to the barn.💞

Good work it's coming together 💕 🕊️

Cuteness overload!

Great update & progress! Sweet chicks & wonderful chicken brooders. Thanks for sharing! Blessings to all 🤗💜🇨🇦

You are very ambitious! That seems like a lot of chickens!❤❤

Love baby chicks. So cute thanks

"I wish you wore sunglasses." So good! I'm glad you said that, I never noticed but he would look awesome with sunglasses!!!

Those chicks are LIVELY!!! Watching them run around is pretty amazing- so resilient for hatching a day or so ago plus being shipped!! Glad they all made it to you guys alive.

How convenient for us that you just happened to be filming when the Post Office called!🤔🤭 Spring is the absolute best time on the farm!🐣🐤🐖🐖🐖🐖🌱🌱🌄🐦 Jason and Lorraine you are so great! I love how everyone jumps in and gets it done! By chance, do y'all know Jason and Brooke from "Cog Hill Family Farm"? You have quite a bit in common. They're from Alabama. Take care and see you on the next one!👋 😊

Looks like you spring into work. Blessings from North Texas.❤

Lay some of the horse mats on the floor to cut down on the dust. 🐣

You guys are amazing!

Busy times but so exciting, Springtime! Electric company is awesome to not charge for new electrical .

The chickens are soo cute! Your new pens are going to come in handy. ❤🤗👍

Like to do the pig butcher shop though I live in Michigan and don't have much time off from work. Be pretty cool hanging around all you guys Hollers, Rhodes, Perma pastures, fit Farmer.

Man you guys are moving right along. I love the new chick nursery 🤩 Lorain your fast food dinner beats any fast food that I know of. SO yummy looking.

I like it when you include what's for dinner from your pantry and seeing how you cook and eat from the hard work of growing your own food. Of course, you can't grow everything and that is A ok.

Awwww, love the baby chicks❤ The meal looks delicious😊

Always most interesting . . .

Man, I love how your brooders turned out. I may use them as inspiration for the ones I need to build here....once it's warm enough for chicks up north!

Wow That's a lot of winner winner chicken dinners in your future! Great video! Your fast food supper looked Delicious.

Good luck with the up coming season. I use a ceramic bulb for heat. They do not break.

Spray the floor with an oil, maybe Neem or a natural oil to keep the dust down

Yay! Its chicken time. I love it!❤😊❤

Lorraine, seeing your pantry is AMAZING! Will Jason be adding a strip of wood across the shelf front , in case, there is an earthquake? living in California has taught me the hard way....Love the chickies!

I enjoyed the video and my family loves watching your homestead grow. Excellent job!! Take care and God bless 🙏♥️

Thanks for sharing a cool day with me! I definitely look forward to your videos. Happy birthday Henry!

Awe future specials served on a plate yummy

Put some wood chips, straw, or sawdust down on the ground in the brooder barn and it will keep the dust down. Sawdust from a mill would be perfect.

Drill a hole in the top of the small waterer and fill it there to ease the effort.

You need chicken brooder bunk beds. You would have so much room for activities!

Thanks

💚So exciting, all the new Red Broiler chicks! Those brooders look like they're working great. Yummy "fast" food meal 💚

Heya, yippy baby chickes are here, you just have to love them.

Nice to see the cooking demos, I hope you do more of them!

WOW, look at all that red clay from the trench! Our's is red, but more of a brownish, burnt orange. I miss the dark black soil of Nebraska.

Could you put wood chips down to prevent/mitigate the dusk issue underneath the baby chicks? Also, please keep including meal ideas! ❤❤❤

Did not realize you had a pig chandelier like the Hollers. But theirs has a diaper. God bless

Chicks are so cute, their chirps…💜

I forgot to add I cannot wait to see the baby kuni kunis!, lol

You guys are really growing so proud of you guys. Elvira is good and pregnant 😂 can't wait to see the piglets.

That’s a great fast food meal, totally fresh and home grown! Bravo!

When the temps drop into the teens, you may want to place a prepared board over the top of your brooders with holes only large enough for the lamps. It might make the brooders toasty until spring really comes. DA

I am so excited for all the things happening on the farm!! So much to do! Keep up the great work!

That meal looked num nums!

McMurrays read, broilers hens, put out the biggest double yolk egg you ever find we always get 25 just hatch eggs

Keep on living, all you baby chicks 🐥🐥🐥 Saw you helping at Bri’s, Lorraine! 👏👏👏

I love to watch you guys no matter what you are doing!! So good of you to bless. Bri n her babies on making their. Garden!! Dios. Le. Bendiga ustedes por esto!!

I love having baby bird at home. They are so lovely to have near easter time. When you have young children they love to play with them. I cant wait to have more baby birds, we cant do meat birds this year due to birding work.

I just love your videos sooo much! Loved watching the fast food dinner!

I LOVE that RED soil!!!!’

I used to get chicks from MMc mailed to Florida and always had great egg layers. Love seeing the family working together. ❤❤

Excellent video😊❤

Great video! Nice to see yall raising more chickens this year. That will help your pastures get back on order even faster.

Your dinner looked wonderful, Lorraine!

Sweet vid, Jason! I see many similarities between your life and ours. -Rich from Pastured Dreams Farm

Well done family. Thanks for sharing

Blessings ❤

Great set up for the birds. Love your channel ❤️😁🌹

Lorain I would love the meal you fixed. I looks scrumptious and tasty!!!!

Jason want to thank you. I ordered a bootstrap 6' bender and it shipped today. Can't wait to use it.

Chicks are so cute! I hope you locked up the brooder! 🤗❤️🤗

you are the best my lady.👩👩❤❤

Hello from Melbourne Australia, I love your videos, I hope to one day do something very similar. Keep up the good work

Nice healthy chick's! Also love love your fast food!

😮😮😮 Oklahoma electric company would charge me at least $3000 to do all that! I know of 6 coop fires so far in last month! I'll keep using my heat plates..

I would put some straw on the ground in the brooder shed. This will keep the dust down and provide some insulation.

Never seen it on your channel but if you like vegetable soup you should try canning your own. I love pulling together the last of everything in the garden to make my soup. Tomatoes, peppers, onions, okra, potatoes,corn,carrots, whatever bean is available. Mix it all together cook it for about half hour then pressure can it. When you open the jars mix in whatever kind of meat you like and it is great. Very fast meal.

Hole new season kicking of when the chick's arrive

they look great, excited to see what happens next !!

Love chic day!!❤🐔❤🐔
