Summary
Cold weather can make even experienced chicken keepers panic. If you’ve been asking “Will my chickens freeze?”, “Do chickens need heat in winter?”, or “Am I doing enough right now?” — you are not alone. Sudden drops in temperature trigger fear, confusion, and conflicting advice, especially for backyard chicken owners trying to do the right thing. I built a working homestead from scratch that now pays for itself. I started with a backyard flock and a dream and grew it into a 20-acre operation with over 4,000 birds, multiple livestock, and self-serve farm stands running year-round. We even completely rebuilt in a YEAR after a flood cam and wiped out everything from our flocks to our gardens. All while raising four kids, staying present in my marriage, and keeping my relationship with Jesus at the center of every single decision. I am Tori Gass, a Christian homestead coach. God did not call me to keep this to myself. He called me to bring you with me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Like listening to a friend who is passionate about something and actually knows what she is talking about." — Apple Podcasts This is the show for Christian women who are done dreaming and ready to build a real, sustainable, God-centered homestead.
