Live from Creedmoor, NC, Video Chicken Live is a fun and informative show about all things chickens and coops. Matt, Kristen, and Ingrid answer your questions. We specialize in chickens and chicken coop construction.
This week we speak to cousins, Sean and Patrick, founders of Grubbly Farms. The guys tell us how they went from growing black soldier fly larva in their laundry room in college to a full fledged sustainable chicken feed, treat, and dog treat business.
Grubbly Farms focuses on making food that is good for pets and the planet. The duo started with backyard chickens, creating golden grub-filled recipes with a fraction of the environmental footprint of traditional pet food. Sean and Patrick answer questions about where they source their BSF larva, and how they can continue to promote sustainable practices in the fast growing world of backyard chickens.

This week we show what are some essential items that a chicken keeper should have to deal with some basic first aid issues that arise with chickens. We will not be dispensing medical advice, yet we will let you know what things are good to have to on hand.
Also Kristen has the poop on chicken poop.
We very unscientifically test chicken poop with the Healthistraw, and two batches of hemp bedding. Kristen also brings a bantam hen and two bantam chicks.
Matt loses control of the show, gets bored, and gets grossed out.

Matt and Kristen unbox some new products. Chicken run doors can be a critical part of your set up to protect your flock and make your life easier. We test out some chicken doors to see how they stack up.
We talk to Tony from Chickendoors.com about the Pullet-Shut chicken door. Who doesn't love a good chicken pun? Tony talks about how he and his partner came up with the Pullet-Shut chicken door as Matt demonstrates how it works. It's made in the USA and swings out on hinges. Tony feels that this chicken door has solved the problems that other chicken doors have, and we agree. The doors come in different sizes and can be charged by solar or not.
We also unbox an Omlet chicken door that slides open laterally and a cheap chicken run door that Kristen ordered that turned out to be ....well....cheep, cheap. (see what we did there?)
