Hey Shipmate,
From one Navy Retiree to another let me say, "Congrats!" and I wish you all the best.
If you don't subscribe to the Poultry Press yet, you should. It's well worth it and the coupons for $5 off of feed more than pay for the paper. The last few papers I've gotten from PP has listed a poultry farm in TN (I think) that's for sale. It may be out of your price range (don't remember how much) but worth checking into and you can always run an add in the PP letting folks know you're looking to buy.
Btw, I've been down the divorce road too. The Ex took my kids, half my retirement, half my disability and has given me nothing but heartburn in return ever since. But I sleep well at night because I have total faith that there is a day of reckoning a comin'.
Fair Winds and Following Seas Shipmate. Here's hoping all your dreams come true.
God Bless,
