Renowned poultry expert Lisa Steele joins us for an enriching discussion about chicken keeping. With her fifth-generation expertise, Lisa brings invaluable tips for first-time chicken owners, shedding light on the importance of choosing trustworthy resources over the often conflicting advice on social media. We promise you'll gain essential insights into preparing your chickens for the chill of winter, whether you live in warmer or colder climates. Lisa's four "S's" for winterizing a coop offer practical steps to ensure your feathered friends thrive throughout the year.

Explore the delightful world of backyard chickens as we share stories about unique chicken personalities, including the gentle Charlotte and the notorious mean Kate. Hear about Lisa’s exciting collaboration with Meyer Hatchery to create a 'cookies and cream' chicken, an adventure into breeding for specific traits. We also touch on the joys and considerations of raising chickens, from fostering bonds with baby chicks to choosing hardy breeds like Orpingtons. Whether you're just starting your chicken-keeping journey or are a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with resources, anecdotes, and encouragement to enrich your backyard flock experience.
