Best podcast for chicken lovers

These ladies are a hoot and a half. They keep it entertaining but u also learn quite a bit. We picked the breeds we got after we listened to all the different breed spotlights. Now bake with eggs cuz I don’t eat cooked eggs gfs (like scrambled or fried) it’s a texture thing but they have recipes for a everybody! Now they do state multiple times throughout their podcasts that if you need assistance to message them and they will help you I thought that was malarkey I mean who has time to help that many people because I’m sure they have thousands of listeners… But I was having a crisis, and every time I posted on all of the different chicken pages it kept getting ignored and skipped over. I was desperate so I sent them a message and within the hour I got a response! They were all helping me. It wasn’t some generic one size fits all response message sent by a robot. It was actually one of the chicken ladies!!! After I figured out, my problem was and when about my life, I looked and had a message on Facebook from the chicken ladies!!! They were just doing a follow up checking in on my chicks! Incredible women! You are missing out if you don’t give this podcast a chance!

Informative and Fun

I’ve been listening to their podcast for a year now and also follow them on social media; they are so much fun! I have learned so much more about poultry despite having been around them my entire life, especially disease and illness that might occur. I enjoy learning and the girls definitely make it that much more fun! I’m making my chick list for my July order and an additional list for my daughter in law’s venture into homesteading.

Everything Chickens!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this podcast! As a chicken lover, I was curious to see if there were any podcasts about them, and I found this. I am SO HAPPY I did, it’s everything chickens! Breed spotlights, recipes on how to use all your eggs, shopping plus important and informative information on chicken health & issues. I feel like I’m hanging out with my besties talking about chickens! They even helped me when I was panicked about a sick chick. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. 💕🐓
