Arizona Chickens

[Parront]

I was leaning to goats, but I that's a big leap in learning curve on care, commitment & building the enclosures. I was also considering pigs but they don't actually live on weeds. Researching to decide what is next besides chickens and probably ducks.

Here is a link to some interesting sheep:

Lamb YUM! Rooting for @CaroleW to get some tasty sheep!

Me, too! That's why I let her know that there are some like the Dorper's that shed themselves.

but if they resemble deer, does that mean they leap like a deer?

Not sure if anyone has seen the latest alerts, but we are going to get winds of up to 60 mph, with blowing dust, east, west, north, south.. Will start soon and will last through the evening. Tie it all down while you can! 🌪

I was just out there checking for egg's, and it's a little too windy for my liking. The red NN was eating out of that new goat trough, and Louie was standing guard, but all of the other's were laying down. One white NN hen was in the nesting box.

I just checked my yard and threw out a few things that could go airborne. Im noticing wild birds getting comfy under the rose bushes. I wonder if they are sensing something is coming. Just lightly breezy here for now.

Yes, they can't fly well in those kind's of wind's.

yes, I put a bunch of things in the shed, and put a big rock in the bucket I use to muck out the pen with. Locked the birds in, I don't want a swinging gate to hit one of them!

I thought it referred to the way they look. I like how deer look, but not the way they eat my garden!
