Скачать или смотреть raise chicks with a broody mother hen for a healthy, happy, regenerative flock of foraging chickens

Learn to work with a broody hen to hatch and raise healthy, resilient chicks. Find out what a mother hen needs, and see the whole process from setting eggs to hatching out, from brooding chicks to weaning them.

Even if you've never considered keeping chickens, it's delightful to see the whole process from setting eggs to hatching out, from brooding chicks to weaning them. It's such a great shift to a more reciprocal vision of how we might live regeneratively.

— Even without the ecosystem services of adding fertility to the gardens, reducing pests, cleaning the orchard, turning piles of mulch, transforming overproductions and waste-streams of food into eggs, into compost, and into a new generation of laying hens, a broody hen is more skilled, more efficient, more devoted to raising chicks than anything we might dream up to replace her —

Watch right to the very end to see who’s hatching now...
