Our homestead chickens are very much multi purpose birds. We are raising meat birds and egg layers. We let them semi free range out in the yard every day for free food. While they are foraging, they are fertilizing our yard.
The grass is very much greener where the chickens have been. This got me wondering if the chicken manure would harm our garden plants or not.
I have been thinking about it for a long time now as I watch the grass and weeds grow better each time I move the chickens to a new spot.
We are striving to become self sufficient and fully off the grid on a budget. Follow along and share our story as it unfolds.
I am sharing our videos from the day we moved to our new homestead to the present. When I get you caught up I will continue sharing our daily videos as we make them.

NOTE: You will likely notice a whole mess of filth and accusations in the comments below. These are trolls I had blocked on YouTube and found me here. They are on me like a disturbed hornets nest seeking revenge because I blocked them. Their harassment has extended into real life. Do NOT engage the trolls for your own safety.

Good observation !
Chickens not only fertilize the land, but they also serve as great natural pesticides and herbicides because the eat all the harmful insects and the wild weeds grown around the trees.
I think it would be much more beneficial if you grow fruits trees on your land. The chickens will serve as natural pesticides and natural fertilizers for your organic fruit garden.

Thank you. Yes the birds are very beneficial as walking pesticides :)
We are growing fruits, berries and nuts now but that is getting ahead of the story for now.

Are the chickens you are pointing to on the screen-shot now protected in a coop? Or are they still living in that overcrowded pen? I believe you showed snow and freezing temperatures in your area the last few days. How does the water stay un-frozen out in the field?

In all fairness Troy I would like to give you the honor of suggesting a topic for one of my stories . Some conditions apply . I will not put to words anything about FBD for the simple fact that all your troubles with him started before I began following your channel . I could go back and watch earlier videos to get a better grasp of the situation but let's face it , a person can only watch grass grow or paint dry a limited amount of time .
2nd and more importantly no mention of that site whom you consider a blight upon this very earth .
Thirdly , and I must be firm on this condition . You must upvote this post . As with all my comments the proof of my words are easily verified from your very own videos and comments . I must insist you do likewise .
