I started just a bit before the pandemic. I'd always wanted some sort of backyard poultry, but they guy I lived with for 20 years had a rather irrational dislike of birds. When he passed away I decided to get something, but didn't really have the space for chickens and remembered that they were very messy and loud. I ended up with quail and my little grief hobby turned into something that I really enjoy.That was me. Little did I know I'd still be doing it 3 years later.
