Winter gives poultry keepers something we rarely have during the busy season: an opportunity to slow down, look back, and decide what genuinely needs improvement.A winter flock reset does not mean changing everything. It means identifying the routines, systems, and decisions that made poultry keeping harder than necessary—and correcting them before another breeding or hatching season begins.In this episode, Rip Stalvey, Jeff Mattocks, Carey Blackmon, and Sue Dobson discuss how to evaluate the past year honestly. They examine breeding results, recordkeeping, housing, ventilation, watering systems, mud and litter problems, nutrition, body condition, winter enrichment, and preparations for the next breeding season.You'll also hear why changing several things at once makes it nearly impossible to determine what worked, how your birds' behavior can reveal whether a change is helping, and why some successful parts of your system should be left alone.The goal is not a complete overhaul. It is a more manageable flock, stronger birds, better breeding decisions, and fewer avoidable problems next year.If you enjoy thoughtful, experience-based poultry information like this, that's what this channel is all about.#PoultryKeepers360 #WinterChickenCare #FlockManagementTIMESTAMPS & CHAPTERS00:00 Using winter as a practical reset 01:24 Evaluating the past year's results 04:06 Learning from experienced poultry keepers 13:38 Records, observations, and breeding plans 17:40 Housing and ventilation 22:30 Water, mud, litter, and manure 27:56 A word from Fertrell 30:11 Winter watering systems and frostbite 33:24 Viewer questions about garlic and flock health 37:23 What body condition reveals about feeding 40:09 Feed quality, supplements, and behavior 47:12 How much feed do chickens need? 51:22 Preventing winter boredom and aggression 56:35 Selecting and pairing breeding birds 59:39 Winter jobs that prepare for breeding season 1:02:50 Is the system failing—or the follow-through? 1:03:51 Keep what works and measure the results 1:05:44 Change one thing at a time 1:07:52 Breeding goals and difficult selection decisions 1:09:24 Closing thoughtsListen to the Audio Edition here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDRODbVf9y3gWatch the Video Edition here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGfX27f-7_IJoin our Facebook Groups:Poultry Keepers 360 - - https://www.facebook.com/groups/354973752688125Poultry Breeders Nutrition - https://www.facebook.com/groups/4908798409211973
Successful breeding begins long before the first eggs go into the incubator.In this episode, Carey Blackmon and poultry nutritionist Jeff Mattocks explain how to prepare a flock for breeding season—from choosing the right birds and setting breeding goals to managing lighting, nutrition, housing, and nest boxes.We discuss:The difference between hatching chicks and building a breeding programChoosing breeders with the fewest serious faultsDeciding what you want your flock to becomeUsing linebreeding to improve consistencyWhat inbreeding depression really looks likeChoosing the right time of year to hatchPreparing breeders through lighting managementAdjusting light for younger and older birdsImproving breeder nutrition before collecting eggsEgg size and its effect on chick qualityAmino acids, vitamins, and chick vigorPreparing clean, comfortable nest boxesWhether greens have a place in the breeder dietBreeding season is not simply a matter of putting a rooster with a few hens.

IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The Bell2Bell Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels. The Bell2Bell Podcast delivers informative updates and exclusive interviews with executives operating in fast-moving industries. The Bell2Bell Podcast's latest episode features Galiano Tiramani, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of BOXABL Inc. (NASDAQ: BXBL), an innovative technology company transforming the housing market with its modular building systems. To begin the interview, Tiramani provided an overview of BOXABL's approach to housing construction, highlighting the company's goal of applying assembly-line mass production to an industry that continues to rely heavily on traditional on-site building methods. “Our company is called BOXABL, and we are building houses in a factory. Our goal is to fix housing by dramatically lowering the cost,” Tiramani said. “We think we can achieve that by just building houses on an assembly line with mass production, the way all other modern products are built since the Industrial Revolution. There's a huge opportunity in housing to bring this product category onto the assembly line.” Tiramani then explained how BOXABL's modular building system is designed to address one of the fundamental obstacles that has historically limited factory-built housing: efficiently transporting large structures from a centralized manufacturing facility to building sites. “What we're building is a replacement for traditional site construction, so we build to the regular residential building code,” he said. “The big innovation that we started with was fixing shipping because, of course, houses are very big, so they don't fit on the road. That's the reason they're not built in a factory. Our first solution was, let's fix that shipping so that we can get these things anywhere in the country without it being cost prohibitive. That means that we can actually have a big factory because we have a big shipping radius, and a big factory means mass production. It means economies of scale, and that's how we're going to be able to crush the cost.” For more information, visit the company's website at www.BOXABL.com To hear the episode and subscribe for future podcasts, visit https://podcast.bell2bell.com For more information, please visit https://www.IBN.Ai Please see full terms of use and disclaimers on the InvestorBrandNetwork website applicable to all content provided by IBN, wherever published or re-published: http://IBN.fm/Disclaimer

Protein percentage is only part of the story when it comes to feeding poultry well. What matters is how protein, amino acids, fats, fiber, and the other components of a diet work together.In this PK360 discussion, Rip Stalvey, Jeff Mattocks, and Carey Blackmon take a deeper look at three major components of poultry diets—protein, fat, and fiber—and explain why simply choosing the feed with the highest protein number may not give your birds what they actually need.We discuss vegetable and animal protein sources, why amino acids such as lysine, methionine, and cysteine matter, and how protein needs change as birds grow and enter production. The conversation also explores fish meal, fiber and gut health, the relationship between fat and fiber, different sources of dietary fat, and some of the practical compromises involved in mash, pellet, and crumble feeds. The discussion emphasizes that protein percentage alone can be misleading when amino-acid balance and total feed intake aren't considered.You'll also hear practical discussion about reading feed tags, feeding chicks and growing birds, breeding-season nutrition, whole grains, oats, feed freshness and storage, and questions from poultry keepers watching the original PK360 LIVE.Use the chapters below to listen from beginning to end or jump directly to the subject you need.Poultry Keepers 360 brings together practical experience and thoughtful poultry education to help poultry keepers better understand their birds and make informed decisions about breeding, management, and nutrition.If you enjoy thoughtful, experience-based poultry information like this, that's what this channel is all about.Chapters & Timestamps0:00 Welcome & What We're Covering1:07 Protein Sources in Poultry Diets3:31 Why Amino Acid Balance Matters5:03 Animal vs. Vegetable Protein9:02 Fish Meal & Sustainable Sources12:13 Fish Meal, Feather Quality & Eggs16:25 Lysine, Methionine & Cysteine19:21 How Much Protein Do Chicks Need?25:07 Protein Needs for Growing Birds26:13 Developer & Layer Feed28:30 Do Some Breeds Need More Protein?29:22 Nutrition for Breeding Stock30:34 Fertrell Sponsor Break31:40 Why Fiber Matters34:31 Fiber, Gut Health & Bird Behavior35:42 Choosing Effective Fiber Sources37:42 Whole Oats & Diet Self-Selection39:00 Balancing Fat and Fiber40:23 Choosing Better Fat Sources41:48 Animal Fat & Shelf Life43:58 Vegetable vs. Animal Fats45:24 What Fat Does for the Bird47:35 Reading Fat & Fiber on Feed Tags49:22 Why Good Fat & Fiber Levels Are Hard to Find51:15 Whole Grains & Feeding Grit52:49 Ergot Risk in Rye53:44 Feed Freshness & Shelf Life56:09 Mash vs. Pellets57:32 Chick Feed & Breeder Supplement58:12 What Is Mash Feed?1:00:23 How Long Does Feed Stay Nutritious?1:00:52 Calcium in Poultry Feed1:03:40 How Long Can Whole Grains Be Stored?1:05:07 Closing ThoughtsJoin our Facebook Groups:Poultry Keepers 360 - - https://www.facebook.com/groups/354973752688125Poultry Breeders Nutrition - https://www.facebook.com/groups/4908798409211973

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The United States military is the largest single institutional consumer of oil on the planet, and that dependency has become one of the most serious strategic vulnerabilities in modern defense. Every gallon that reaches a forward base must travel through a supply chain that can be disrupted, intercepted or destroyed. Multiple critical civilian sectors face a parallel problem: construction, desalination, space exploration and telecommunications all operate in environments where reliable high-density power is either unavailable or dangerously exposed. American Fusion Inc. (OTC: AMFN) (Profile), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kepler Fusion(TM), is developing the Texatron(TM), a compact, aneutronic (little to no radiation) truck-deployable fusion engine(TM) designed to produce anywhere from .5 MW to over 100 MW of clean power without turbines, steam cycles or vulnerable fuel supply chains. The scale of the U.S. military's petroleum dependency is striking. American Fusion is currently advancing its 5 MW preproduction Texatron model through testing and validation, with engineering and production already underway for future 10 MW and 20 MW systems. The same energy problems that afflict the military are present across a wide range of civilian sectors. The Texatron system generates electricity directly by exerting pressure on its own magnetic field. The global energy landscape is undergoing a structural shift toward distributed, high-density energy systems.

Welcome to 2026 & a brand new look for the podcast (The Video Edition at least)! Episode 202 is here & we have Jeremy, Stephen, Chase, & Chris all together to talk about 2025 subjects like our favorite games (along with bad experiences), then diving into 2026 with what games we are looking forward to, what trends we predict to happen this year, as well as our thoughts for what will pop up in this years first Nintendo Direct / Sony State of Play / Xbox Showcase & more! We are pushing for more discussion this year & less covering of the news as we know this is a weekly show so what we do talk about will be round ups & things we can try to deliver our opinions, thoughts, & ideas about while touching on news each week we want to discuss. We're also pushing for more Extra Quarters with a directive to try & deliver a new one each month! Our "Big Question" for this week is "As we start 2026, what are some games (or series) you recommend (or challenge) another person on the show to play this year?
