What happens here

The video opens with a scene of numerous white chickens actively foraging in a lush, green pasture during an early morning. The farmer describes these chickens as their 'pasture sanitation crew' for producing pastured eggs. He explains that the chickens have just woken up and are walking around the paddock, foraging. An electric poultry netting fence is visible, enclosing the chickens and keeping them safe from predators. In the background, a mobile chicken coop, referred to as a 'broodmobile' or 'eggmobile', is shown, with a door that opens in the morning and closes at night for safety, and roll-out nest boxes on the side. The farmer mentions that the chickens follow behind cows (visible in the distance) to help control flies in cow manure, making the best-tasting eggs, and fertilizing the fields, contributing to the regenerative farm system.

Goal: Demonstrate the role of chickens in a regenerative farm environment for pasture management.

What they say

Hide

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.
