Day in the life of watching my mom’s chickens!
I love farm fresh eggs! When I go visit my mom or when she goes out of town I watch her chickens!🐓 I collect the eggs super early in the mornings, feed them sun dried worms (their favorite snack) 🪱😳 give them fresh water and I also feed them other treats like cut up cucumbers, carrots, tortillas, celery, lettuce, spinach and apples!🥬These chickens eat better than I do!😂 During the day when I’m home we let them out of the cage to roam the backyard. But my favorite part is collecting the eggs in the morning and nights!#embracevulnerability #unfiltered #lemon8bookclub #Lemon8Diary #dayinmylife #chicken #farmiscooking #ThingsToDo #momlife #fallvibes
Caring for chickens is not just about collecting eggs; it's about understanding their needs and behaviors. Chickens thrive when given a balanced diet that includes grains, vegetables, and proteins like sun-dried worms. In addition to treating them with cucumbers and apples, providing them with fresh water daily is crucial to their health. Free-ranging chickens also enjoy roaming in safe surroundings, which allows them to exhibit natural behaviors. This leads to happier, healthier chickens, and results in better egg production. Engaging with chickens can be a therapeutic experience, bringing joy and connection to backyard farming. Those looking to start their farming journey should know that chicken keeping can be a fulfilling and educational activity, offering up fresh eggs while promoting responsible animal care. By using care guidelines and knowledge, anyone can enjoy the benefits of chicken farming.
