I call ours a hobby farm. We raise our own birds, & grow our own veggies.
We sell, & give away excess eggs to people who need them. We have an excess amount of eggs building up right now.

Our new total of birds is 78. Number will be dropping abit more after we butcher some more birds, plus the Thanksgiving Turkey.
Our birds gave us 20 eggs today, & it's 36°F if not lower now though. They just went to bed 2 hours ago.

I love pics! Post pics whenever. You can't sidetrack the thread because it's a chat thread with no purpose.

Would you like to see my Heritage Plymouth Barred Rock chicks? They just turned 8 weeks old.

1 dog to serve as livestock guardian dog. no idea on breed, or what breeds are good.

Great pyrenees are AMAZING LGD. I'll dig up some pics in a bit. They work best in pairs and are great for cold winters. Ours live outside full time with the sheep.

sheep-they are FLOOF, and I can spin their floof into yarn, which I can then crochet with.

Put coats on your sheep to keep the wool clean and you can sell it at a premium price. That is, if you don't spin it all yourself.

This is Inigo, one of our two Great pyrs. He's over 120 lbs, has a huge bark, barks all night long, and is a big fluffy baby XD

ETA: Forgot to mention. He's only a year old.

Yes! Heritage PBRs are one of my absolute favorite chickens! Their barring is so gorgeous.
