During the episode, Capers shares her journey, detailing the challenges and rewards of her transition from nursing to farming. She emphasizes the significance of preserving heritage breeds and sheds light on the impact of human intervention on their genetic makeup.

In her interview with RFD-TV’s own Suzanne Alexander, Capers dives into the personal dynamics of filming the show, sharing how host Kirbe Schnoor opened up about her fear of birds and how she was able to provide support to help her conquer this fear during the filming process.
