What happens here

This video showcases chickens on a regenerative farm in the early morning, foraging in a grassy paddock enclosed by electric netting. The farmer describes their role as a 'pasture sanitation crew' that follows cows to control flies, produce eggs, and fertilize fields.

Good morning. Morning everybody. Welcome to Stony Ridge Farm today. U quickly show you what we got here. This is our pasture sanitation crew. It's a nice early morning. These chickens have just gotten up and have been walking around in this paddic uh foraging. Got three 184t uh rolls or reels of uh poultry netting here. And this is what I call the broodmobile or the eggmobile. And that door on the front of it opens in the morning and closes at night to keep them safe. The fencing keeps them safe. And there are roll out nest boxes on the side right here. And this is our pasture sanitation crew for pastured eggs. And they go in right behind the cows and help control the flies. So there's cow manure, cow droppings all out in here. And these chickens will forage through that, make the best tasting eggs, and fertilize our fields. Super awesome. Welcome to the regenerative farm. Cows are right over there. Take care, guys. Have a great day.
