Interview with farmer Mike Webb
We recently interviewed a farmer named Mike Webb and he taught us a lot of things like that his chickens will get coccidiosis at some point in their lives because it's a pathogen found in the soil. Also, he told us about how the meat roosters only live for 8 weeks before they go to the processor, while the laying hens live for 2 years. We also found out that he uses this cool type of pen called a salaten pen. It's a 10x12 pen on skids that is able to move every day so the chickens can have a fresh piece of land every day for catching grasshoppers, grass, and other bugs.
