White Strawberries

Chickens in the Garden | With Dr. Sez the Vet

Samantha Penman

We’re talking chickens—those fluffy butt, soil-turning, pest eating wonders that can be put to work in your garden. 

🐔 Whether you're dreaming of adding chickens to your permaculture setup or wondering if they're right for your orchard, this episode is packed with practical, real-world insight. I'm joined by Sez the Vet, an experienced life-style vet and educator.

This is a conversation I was looking for 10 years ago! I get to have it now and share it with you. 

Are we OK to feed our hens oats in the morning? 

Can we let a mama hen eat the chick starter?

What breeds should a gardener have? 

By the end, you’ll know whether chickens are right for your land—and your lifestyle. 

🎧 Tune in to learn how pigs can become not just garden helpers, but cherished companions (just don’t let them get away with any nonsense!).
