Dreaming of gathering fresh eggs from your own backyard? 🥚 In this beginner-friendly episode of Chickens & Farming Made Easy, we dive into the trending question for 2025: Are backyard chickens really worth it for beginners?
With more than 11 million U.S. households raising chickens and millions of chicks sold each year, backyard chicken keeping is one of the fastest-growing homesteading movements. But before you run to Tractor Supply or order a coop online, let’s break down the real costs, the simplest coop setups for beginners, and the most common mistakes new chicken keepers make. You’ll learn:
✔️ How much it really costs to raise chickens in 2025 (feed, coops, and hidden expenses)
✔️ Which beginner-friendly coop options work best for small backyards vs. rural setups
✔️ The top mistakes first-time chicken owners make — and how to avoid them
✔️ Why predator-proofing, zoning laws, and starting small matter more than you think
✔️ A faith-based perspective on “counting the cost” before starting your first flock
Whether you’re a stay-at-home mom looking to provide healthier food, a suburban family curious about sustainable living, or a beginner homesteader ready to step into God’s calling for your household, this episode will give you clarity and confidence to start strong.
✨ Plus: I’ll share how Heavenly Homestead Academy can help you build the spiritual, financial, and practical foundation for your homestead — before you buy your first chick.
