Chickens Every Day
Practical Tips for Raising Happy Chickens
Can raising backyard chickens really transform your family life while contributing to ethical food production? On "Chicken Every Day," we explore the rewards of raising chickens, especially during chick season. We uncover the joys of gathering fresh, nutritious eggs right from your backyard and discuss how this hands-on activity can be a delightful and educational experience for the whole family. Furthermore, we tackle the serious issue of the poor conditions in commercial egg production, referencing a Congressional Research Service report, and discuss how raising chickens at home supports better bird welfare and reduces the number of caged birds.
Our episode is packed with practical advice on feeding and caring for your feathered friends. We highlight the benefits of sourcing fresh, nutritionally balanced feed from local suppliers and the advantages of using fermented feed for chickens of any age. We also discuss the importance of introducing healthy table scraps and treats, allowing chickens to free-range safely, and protecting them from predators.
