Eggs

We've gotten a ton of requests in the past few months to do an episode on chickens, especially for eggs. We actually plan on doing an special series on livestock in the coming year, including one episode for chickens for eggs and one episode for chickens for meat. But until then, we figured we could put together an episode on eggs, and not just from chickens, but from ducks and quail as well. 

We go over the basics for raising any sort of poultry, from their coop, to food to water. We also talk a but about pasturing basics, and whether or not to give poultry an outdoor run, a pasture, a tractor, or just let them free range. We briefly dive into some of the specifics on raising chickens, ducks, and quail, as well as the pros and cons for each. and finally, we wrap up with a but of discussion about eggs, their nutrition, how to use them, and how to preserve them!

We hope this episode will help get you by until our deeper dive into livestock, and helps get you started on the journey to egg laying poultry.
