Before, During, & After Coop Remodel! 🤩
Yall, I change my mind on coops so much that my husband is second guessing what he married & the concrete truck getting stuck in our yard nearly took out our 12 year marriage but we survived. 😄 we needed to raise the elevation on this coop because it floods in the back. This used to be my Brahma & duck coop and this is the reason I decided to sell them. I wanted to remodel this coop specifically for silkies. Looking forward to trying out the drainage feature we added and hoping it works!
Brinsea Mini 2 Advance Egg Incubator
I have 5 incubators and ALL of them are Brinsea incubators. I have 3 of these smaller ones. I’m working on getting reviews of the other two.Let me tell you why I love these:🐣Keeps humidity & temperature perfectly!🐣Automatic Turner with Days Countdown🐣Perfect for smaller hatches I use these smaller ones mainly to separate the different color chicks into separate incubators so I don’t have to use so many hatch bags. Link in bio! Follow me on IG, FB, & my Amazon page! I’m working hard to show everyone good chicken or pet products! #Chickens #Chicken #ProductReview #ProductsILove #Silkies #EggIncubator #BrinseaIncubator

Merek’s Protection:Let’s talk about Merek’s in poultry! (But please be kind ☺️)This is a very controversial topic. This video is to educate, not persuade or influence. Please talk with a vet if you decide to go this route. Hatcheries offer this protection for an additional fee. The ingredients are purchased through Valley Vet. The powder in the little vial has to stay chilled. Here’s the short version of steps I take:🟡Withdrawl 50ml of the dilution.🟡Break the powder into fourths with tweezers and mix in 1/4 of the powder into the dilution.🟡Withdrawl 0.2cc into the syringe.🟡Use rubbing alcohol to clean & see skin better. 🟡Pinch skin on the neck. Inject solution. Should make a little bubble under the skin. ⚪️Has to be done within 24 hours after hatch. What I’m saying is…this works for me & mine. This gives my customers a layer of extra protection for their flock. There has been ZERO cons to doing this. I’ve done this literally hundreds of times. There are very few breeders who do this that I know of (at least in the silkie community). I only purchase chicks from those few who do. I’m kinda scared to ask your opinion. 🫠 Let’s not make this post a debate! Be nice! #Chickens #Silkies #Silkie #Chicken #Mereks

Want to learn how I’ve healed several chickens that had open wounds? Fox, raccoon, dog wounds! Mix this cheap & easy solution into a spray bottle. Spray the wound at least 3x a day. Make fresh daily! Chickens are pretty resilient! Comment below if you’ve used this before! Does it work for you?
These dang hens are so picky! I tried adding a border to keep them from throwing it all in the floor, so now they scoop it inside the cage. 🤦🏼♀️
Looking for recommendations. Maybe I should try a different type of feeder.

Waffle winner! Congratulations!
All my young pullets getting some outside time. These girls will be the future breeders! #Silkies #Chickens #TheSilkieChick
If you didn’t already know, chickens LOVE grub worms! It’s their favorite treat! The fact that this hen isn’t even eating them, even though they are her favorite, shows how great of a mom she is! She’s feeding them to her babies! ❤️ #Silkies #SilkieChickens
This hatching time brooder has been a game changer! My cat ate one too many chicks this year so I had to get something more secure. So far, I’m impressed! 😎 #Silkies #TheSilkieChick #ChickenBrooder #Brooder #Chickens #BackyardChickens
