[My Very First 6 Chickens]

The Featherbrain is nice, but honestly, her videos (like some of mine on other topics) tend to be slow and not all that captivating. I did a whole three-minute fat ratio breakdown for parrots on a whiteboard — at least I threw in more jokes to keep it lively.

Chicklandia is an absolute sweetheart, but again, it takes ages to get to the main point, lots of time during every 'episode' with past content and the welcome message.

Once Upon a Farm? I’m just not into celebrity anything. And Chickens in My Garden feels way too basic — like I’m back in kindergarten. But hey, it all comes down to what you’re looking for in a channel.

Do I still watch them? Yep. But I haven’t found one yet that really grabs me; I usually skip around just to catch the good bits. I get it — editing takes time (I have to crank out weekly content myself and honestly neglected editing old material) — but a tighter summary would make a huge difference.

I like having clear reference points — knowing whether someone is a researcher, scientist or more of a lifelong learner. And, frankly, I also make sure they seem mentally stable (I know that sounds harsh, but some people clearly have issues, and their content should be taken with a grain of salt, ill get off my soapbox).

Sometimes I wish I had a go pro camera on my head while caring for chickens because useful stuff happens that I'd like to share but the moment passes.

I have watched the The Featherbrain. A lot of the stuff she says makes logical sense and seems to be based on research papers. She also has a very good relationship with her chickens and approaches chicken keeping from a more closer to their natural ecology type of keeping.

I will be watching some of the stuff suggested here as more opinions and sources is always better!

I love her approach, she gives detailed information and explains how and why she does things the way she does them.

I loved The Featherbrain content on camping tent Chick Brooder so much I was inspired to create my first and only YouTube video. Don't judge!

Welcome To Chickenlandia, The Featherbrain, Chickens in my Garden, Cabin Creek Homestead, Acres of Adventure Homestead, Becky's Homestead, The Happy Chicken Coop, Bock Bock Bouquet, are all my personal favorites. Becky's Homestead used to be my go-to when first getting into chickens. There's tons of chicken YT channels!

I follow Cath's Happy Chickens. She doesn't have many videos but a website with tons of articles. She even publishes a newsletter with helpful tips, etc current to the season. Her website is raising -happy-chickens.com.
I have seen some of Chickenlandia, but she does take too much time to get to the point. I do like Bock Bock Bouquet. I have also seen White House on the Hill, Gold Shaw Farm, Doug and Stacy and Appalachia's Homestead with Parera, but those are more overall homesteading rather than strictly just poultry based. Also look up Chicken City. I forget the name of the channel, but she has an awesome set up!

I also went to my local library and checked out a ton of books. But this site is also a great resource. Best bet is to check everything out then see what suits your needs for the area your in. Hate to say it, but other than that, it's lots of trial and error.
