My Favorite aspect about raising backyard chickens, besides the Egg-cellent eggs, is the valuable knowledge my family and I learn every day from all of these birds. The care, the feeding, nurturing, etc.
Other interests are farming and cultivation, raising animals and basic wood shop.
I have been a certified barber for 17 years who owned only 2 cats but now my family and I want to live in a more sustainable way and we are currently working on building up our homestead. Raising livestock and organic crops to bring food to our table. With Nigerian Dwarf goats, chickens and Kunekune pigs. And would love to expand to lamb and turkeys as well sometime soon.
Even before joining this community, every time I had any questions about chickens I would always end up on this website. So now I’m formally a happy new member
