Hello, friends and fellow chicken enthusiasts! I’m Winston Tobin, the heart and soul behind “Raise Chickens Right.” If you’re wondering why you should listen to a seasoned farmer like me on how to raise healthy, happy chickens, well, let me share a bit of my story with you.
I grew up in a small town where farming was more than just a profession—it was a way of life, a community, a family. My father was a dairy farmer, and my mother kept a beautiful vegetable garden. I was the kid who woke up before the rooster crowed, helped milk the cows, and couldn’t wait to collect eggs from our coop.
You might say I’ve got farming in my blood. After graduating high school, I immediately took to the fields and started my journey as a farmer. Over the years, I’ve dabbled in various aspects of agriculture, from growing grains to raising livestock. But my heart has always held a special place for chickens. There’s something incredibly rewarding about nurturing these animals, watching them grow, and knowing that you’re doing your part to provide a healthy, sustainable source of food.
After 30 years of hands-on experience, I realized I had more to offer than just eggs and meat. My community often came to me for advice: “How do you get your hens to lay so consistently?” “What’s your secret for keeping your flock healthy?” I found joy in guiding my neighbors and realized that I could spread this happiness and knowledge on a much larger scale.
So, Raise Chickens Right was born—a platform to educate, guide, and inspire folks like you to embark on their chicken-raising journey the right way. I work with some of the best minds in internet marketing, and blogging to bring you tried-and-tested tips, from choosing the right breed and building a predator-proof coop, to dietary advice and disease prevention. It’s the kind of wisdom that can only come from three decades in the field, observing and learning every nuance of chicken behavior.
But this is not just about chickens. It’s about a way of life that values sustainability, compassion, and community. It’s about the joy of going to the coop each morning and being greeted by clucks and flaps, knowing each chicken by name, and relishing the warm, earthy smell of the coop—believe it or not, it grows on you!
Here at Raise Chickens Right, we’re not just a resource; we’re a family. And I’m excited for you to become a part of it. Join us on this wonderful journey as we share our love for chickens, farming, and a simpler, more meaningful way of living. Your flock is waiting for you, and so am I. Let’s raise those chickens right, together.
Warmly,
Winston – Owner of Raise Chickens Right
