      I'm getting ready to go out and "do" the chickens. It's a backyard flock, and the majority of what my homesteading looks like right now, but it's my favorite time of day.
      I feed the teenagers (All silver-grey Dorkings), feed the major flock, and let the geese out to graze, and talk with everyone as they do their things. It's a good time and I look forward to it every day.

    This reminds me how I grow up. At a small town in Germany. From 1964 until 1972, experienced , the hard work of my family. Having fields. A big veggie garden. A nearby big chicken coop, free ranging. It was the best . Also later on my grandparents. A big garden and our own vegetables. Always never been hungry. Accept later growing up with my alcoholic mom. Those children are lucky to have you as parents.

    If ever you (Justin) forget, here is your reminder, SO many people would jump quick to take over and do what you are doing right now. You've inspired so many to start in their own lives. I hope you don't forget to take it all in and see the wonderful life you've built for yourself your family and your animals. Also the inspiration you've spread. For sure you've made giant ripples in this whole experience we call living.

    They make fun of me & say, "But Mother, youre not supposed to have TV when you first wake up in the morning. Its bad for your brain."
    And I say, "but its my inspirational farm video!"😆

      In the last 7 years only seen one tick in the yard on a cat. None on us.

    I got your email. My only concern FOR YOU is, will you be sustainable in the event the cash flow dries up? I am working towards 'subsistence farming' which just means not starving if TSHTF. I grow a little grain, wheat and corn. I need about an acre for that I can feed my rabbits solely on forage, and the chickens also, with just a tiny bit of supplemental grain. Sheep obviously on grass and hay alone. The issue there is availability of hay and can I make and store sufficient for their winter feed, because the rabbits will be eating that, too. That will require an acre of hay field or tree hay. Vegetables are obvious. I can live without milk, tho I don't wish to.

    Justin, I clicked the Chickens link.. it says critical error .. It wont open.. I wanted to see how many chickens you have to purchase before I mention them to a neighbor.. Do you have the big meat chickens or cornish hens only???

    Hello Justin, why do you put a duck with the chickens? greetings from las vegas nv

      It's not a duck but a goose which guards the chickens from aerial predators.
