We’ve talked about chickens a lot. By now, most of you have your coops and flocks, so it's time to take it to the next level. I'm joined by Dalia Monterroso, President of Chickenlandia, for this enlightening episode where we take a DEEP dive into the (fascinating!) history of chicken-keeping, how to work with HOAs, how to use the REST protocol for sick birds, how to determine if your hens are laying, and so much more.Learn more about Dalia Monterroso and her book here: https://welcometochickenlandia.com  Find Dalia's YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZzxFOVXc7Ae8CMwL5MUe5wCheck out Redmond's Salt here: http://theprairiehomestead.com/salt and use code HOMESTEAD to get 15% offCheck out Redmond's Soil Test here: http://theprairiehomestead.com/soiltest and use code HOMESTEAD to get 15% off Have a message you want to share with the world?
