BowserNoodle ☦️ (bowsacnoodle@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 04:43:12 JST BowserNoodle ☦️ If you have children and even a quarter acre, you can have chickens for cheaper than the price of a cat, almost free. People will buy your eggs unless the market is saturated. If it is, you don't need as many chicks so your feed lasts longer. They can and will eat just about anything, including random leftovers and half eaten stuff from your kids. Vegetable scraps? Sweet. Leftover ground beef? Gone. The bottom of the cereal bowl or oatmeal pan? All good. Stale bread? Yup. It's cheap too. Dude looks like he has a nice house on that property, but I've known a lot of lower to middle class people with chickens. -

Summertime for Zeon (washedoutgundampilot@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 04:43:13 JST Summertime for Zeon This is for the well-to-do guy who can afford to do all this shit like a hobby. By and large, raising all types of animals at the hobbyist level is a tremendous money sink compared to buying stuff yourself. Chickens can be cheap if you have land for them to feed off of, and plenty of scraps….but chicken feed is still pretty pricy too.
Seems to be true w/ all crops, gardens, etc. You’d better be able to afford the extra mouths or a SAHM in order to mind all this stuff while you’re out earning the bills. Otherwise you’re ONE big breakdown away from despair

It’s all so fake and gay, every time I see one of these “buying a farm” it’s some urbanite w/ a remote IT job making $200k/year revamping his life and bragging about this insane lifestyle he invented, while murmuring judgemental, catty bullshit about the neighbors down the lane not having nice stuff like he does (bc they’ve been farming for 50 years and not sending emails for ZOGinc)

Like idk if this guy is legit or not, but your points about the nice looking stuff are spot on. I built my first coup out of scrap wood, and it worked fine. As did the guy who I got my chickens from.

You could put a sign up out front and sell at least enough to offset the cost of feed. That's all my buddy does and he keeps a spreadsheet for everything. -

Summertime for Zeon (washedoutgundampilot@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 05:12:05 JST Summertime for Zeon people need to understand:
NOBODY WILL BUY YOUR EGGS
NOBODY WILL BUY YOUR CHICKENS
(at a price you’ll make money on. You can get a bottom dollar reserve price at feed stores often, but you had better know how much feed/rx you wasted on that bird before hi fiving each other over eight bucks)
YOU WILL SPEND FAR MORE ENERGY MARKETING AND HAGGLING THAN IT IS WORTH
Everyone wants free eggs, nobody wants to buy. Our farmer’s market never returned after 2020, the only people in the small holding economy are brownoids - funny enough, mexicans buying in bulk are the best customers we have around here. All other customers are insane, fringe weirdos who WILL stalk your place for things to steal, and keep coming back to fleece you when they see you’re a nice, gullible white.
But people REALLY have a rosy understanding of this whole thing. It’s been flooded with new people, and “well you can just sell them!” never works out how you want. Last time I checked

Everyone - EVERYONE - I know is being crushed by costs, having clean, manicured people and obvious upper classers talking about how they just went out and splurged on the 20th $500 project around the farm this year is so chafing to listen to.
Guys are selling off calves because they can’t afford feed. They’re cutting feed back to 40% what they used to give in an effort to control costs. But somehow I never hear these stories from the “homesteading” crowd. It’s always some new fancy boy vitamin water dispenser for their hens because their feathers weren’t glossy enough.
It’s not enough to let salt of the earth folk have their honor, they have to skin it off them and wear that too.

Wrath (eiswald@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 07:42:38 JST Wrath I'm dirt shit poor, water my chickens with the hose, and they eat bug and grass. I have more eggs than I know what to do with.
I don't know who you're talking to or what their experiences have been but it is not hard to run livestock assuming you're doing it for yourself.
I also run a broiler operation for my own company. It is costly to run but running it doesn't take so much time away from me that I couldn't make a video. Just requires every day attention and monthly shit sandwiches. I just don't do social media, got someone else for that. lol
Only need to provide feed in the absolute dead of winter and last I checked the decent stuff is still about $11-$12/50lbs. About five or six pounds a day is enough to supplement them if they need it.
A lot of this was just finally being willing to pull the trigger. I stopped giving a shit about the potential costs and dove into it. Built a chicken coop out of scrap wood and bought 20 hens for about $40 and that was that. Had less than an acre to run them on at the time but it was enough. Going to have about 12 more geese pretty soon if all of their eggs hatch. Geese, btw, are a 'just add water' animal if you can tolerate their behaviors and noises.
Maybe I'm drawing the wrong message from your replies and I agree that trendy 'homesteader' faggots need to be thrown into a fucking woodchipper but I've never experienced or known anyone to experience what you're talking about where I live which is in a heavy lifestock rural area.
THAT SAID. I have heard horror stories from out west. How shit is just getting harder and harder and worse and worse west of the Mississippi.BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

But he does it more as something he likes to do, as he most certainly does not make money on his eggs when he is giving many of them away. If you go into such a plan with the idea of making money, you are not going to do that unless you have a massive scale of operation. Which in that case, you have become a full time chicken farmer.

BowserNoodle ☦️ (bowsacnoodle@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 12:53:22 JST BowserNoodle ☦️ Dude chickens are like one step up from goldfish in simplicity and cost. A dog is more expensive than chickens if you factor in the eggs that you personally eat (two dozen a week in my house). You're spot on about the right romanticizing agrarian pseudomodern primitivism, but we do that for everything because we actually appreciate the non materialistic aspects of life. I'm telling you, if you're in a temperate zone they'll eat bugs and scraps and barely need feed. Plus they're fun and teach responsibility and all the other 4H style things. -

A lot of them will try and dig under so you have to watch for that but you can use wire on the ground if they do. I used scrap wood that I was glad to get rid of. You can also use cull lumber since it doesn't need to be perfect dimensional stuff for a literal shanty. -

Well there's your problem. Rooster dies first. Cock-a-doodle-don't even think of doing that outside my house. A family raising chickens can usually do fine with 1 bird per person ± extras for baking or how much you like eggs. But how the heck are you paying that much for food!? I barely fed mine when besides table scraps. Maybe it's because I have kids so food is "wasted" more, but they don't need much feed. They'd pick the compost pile clean and eat the bugs that crawled on the food I tossed in there. -

Summertime for Zeon (washedoutgundampilot@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 13:12:20 JST Summertime for Zeon How many chickens? If you keep a dozen then they’re simple and easy (provided you can feed them cheaply, I got a hookup on feed and even still it’s about $100 a week for what we have, even w/ hay and free ranging)
Once you scale up past 25/50/100/200/300 things get very problematic. Everyone faceplants because they get their first bunch and let them hatch, then start getting ideas about actually being able to make something out of it as an enterprise. One line of ours started with 1 breeding pair. A couple years later and that turned into at least 70, probably 100+ chicks. You realize selling them is more pain than it’s worth, dealing with brownoids, hagglers, and poors. Maybe guys in rich areas can do it. But most of the places west of the miss will already be saturated w/ egg sellers & chicken haulers.
And it all starts when your woman sees well-dressed upper middle class suburbanite-turned-2021-homesteaders i showing off a tidy pen of 50 ‘meat birds’ acting like they’re able to afford $500 Ulta makeup bills every month by selling birds to the feed store for five dollars a head. As the dad you gotta be a little heartless and put your foot down on flock size before it all spirals out of control

Summertime for Zeon (washedoutgundampilot@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 22-Sep-2023 20:45:59 JST Summertime for Zeon Reminds me of the OTHER irritation of “hey you guys want eggs?”
Nobody EVER gives you the carton back to refill, no matter how many times you tell them to swap it out with you. It seems like it’s not a big deal but you feel like a rube when you’re buying this for the 5th time this year all so people can just keep throwing them away because they’re too lazy to care about the free, valuable thing you’re nice enough to provide to them
Lord help you if you grow something w/ cool eggs. If you have laying turkeys you find out REAL quick who the jews are

BroDrillard (brodrillard@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Saturday, 23-Sep-2023 03:20:22 JST BroDrillard The video's point is true not just for chicken. Once one grows some tomatoes in a box, the superior taste compared to store-bought is unmistakable. That's how we started. Then when you have a garden you add fruit trees. And vegetables. And start seriously thinking about animals. You already have a dog or two, how much more trouble can a goat be? BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

koropokkur (koropokkur@poa.st)'s status on Saturday, 23-Sep-2023 03:20:23 JST koropokkur take a look at japanese eggs. yolk color is much more orange becuz the birds are fed better. albumin sack around yolk is taut and the yolk sits nicely on it.
store bought eggs are usually over 7 days old by the time of purchase and the you yolk will spread out, instead of remmaing ball shaped. -

BroDrillard (brodrillard@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Saturday, 23-Sep-2023 03:20:57 JST BroDrillard I have a friend and a relative working in (different) vet offices. Both are female...
Many women have the maternal instinct to raise half a dozen children. And since they don't have half a dozen children the spend all that care and attention on animals, cats, furbabies. Working as vets may be the least bad outlet.BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

Wolfgirl in Wheatfield (wgiwf@poa.st)'s status on Saturday, 23-Sep-2023 03:20:58 JST Wolfgirl in Wheatfield Vets are a luxury few small-time farmers can afford.
As an aside, not that I watch it, but when one of those vet shows somehow end up on a tv I am struck by how gynocentric the whole thing is. Even when there's a male vet (he's really the only one who has a vaguely normal sense about what he's doing) there's a serious lack of professional distance when it comes to dealing with the animals and a big emotional attachment that the femoids have with them.
We have become soft and allowed things to fester. -

Wolfgirl in Wheatfield (wgiwf@poa.st)'s status on Saturday, 23-Sep-2023 03:21:02 JST Wolfgirl in Wheatfield It's better than being a nurse sure, but it's not ideal. The replacement of children and families with pets is a travesty. Also it's another traditionally male space being taken over by women—once again. BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -
