CHICKCOZY DOOR CAUTION

We received a Chickcozy door a couple months ago and it was working great. Unfortunately we’ve recently run into an issue and Chickcozy hasn’t been any help. I think I may have a solution for the problem though. #autocoopdoor #chickencoop #chickcozy Check us out on our other Social Media Outlets.

    Cornish Cross were selectively bred to grow fast and be butchered at about 6 weeks. I don't like the flavor as well, also when my folks raised them sometimes they would drop dead because the hearts are too small for the size of the bird, and often they would have bent bones that wouldn't support them to walk if my folks waited overly long to butcher. I like the dual purpose birds better for flavor and health of the bird, but I can understand why people get the Cornish Cross.

    I agree about hemp bedding. I’ve never tried it either because I know I’ll never spend that kind of money on betting. If you have a little flock and a little coop, it might work great but I’ve got 15 chickens and I can’t afford to use hemp bedding.

    When my Polish were little, I handled and talked to them every day, so as chicks, they never ran from me. They ran to me, especially if you have treats that are small enough for them to eat. The grey one may be a Blue White Crested Polish, but because of the different splashes of grey, it might be a Blue Splash White Crested Polish. Personally, I would round the tops of their roosts otherwise, they'd be a little rough on their feet. Good luck! Enjoy!

    We raised and butchered 25 Cornish cross for the first time a few months back. We have another 25 on pasture currently and probably will be doing another 25 before winter. My husband and I were vegan for roughly 10 years, we always knew it was a temporary way of eating for us until we could raise and hunt our own meat. For us, the bottom line was quality control of what goes into the meat, quality of life for the animals and finally shouldering the responsibility of taking the lives of those creatures. It never felt right being disconnected from the reality of what it takes to have animal protein in my diet. I wanted to consume animal products but not enough to buy them on Styrofoam trays wrapped in plastic completely disconnected from any responsibility for those lives. Cost and effort aren't factored into my decision, The bottom line is, if I want to eat meat I'm doing all the dirty work.

  • @andystampfli9127
    @andystampfli9127 18 дней назад

    So they are a slower growing breed... When can the breed and what size litters should we expect. I found someone who's getting out of them and can get feeders for $25. But would like to try to raise my own from them and don't know much about them.

    • @RockyCreekHomestead
      @RockyCreekHomestead 15 дней назад

      They can be mature enough for pregnancy as early as 8 months, but with their slower growth 12-18 is more ideal. Litter sizes can vary with the first litter often times being the smallest the sow will have. Average is 6-8 but I had a litter as small as 4.

      @@RockyCreekHomestead thanks for the reply. Guy bought a property with them on it and sold them off to get rid of them. I was 3hr away by the time I called (30 min after posting) he said he had a guy coming for the adults and didn't know if he wanted the little pigs... 2hrs later the post was removed. Wrong place and time but got the idea stuck in my head. I don't think I've ever heard of a hog being a good mother until I heard of kunekune. My knowledge is limited but Berkshires seemed to lose 1 or 2 a litter... Even with escape boards

    This was so helpful for our first batch of chicken processing. Yes you won’t get 100% of the meat but you get the best parts for your freezer (freezer space was an issue for us). We also made bone broth and I used diluted blood in our garden. So I would not agree this is reckless or majorly wasteful.
