Hello everyone I am yooperfresh. We are trying to bring back to life a once booming farm in the U.P. of Michigan just south of Marquette Co.
We currently have a half dozen of chickens as well as ducks, turkey. We are trying to learn how to over winter chickens as I work on agricultural science. I've been a lurker here for years and finally felt I hit the point to be worthy to join after building my first coop and trying to go beyond chicken tractor broiler raising. I came to enjoy the wealth of knowledge that's available at BYC. As I have said. I'm starting to realize is less time for the research than the work as the farm progresses. Not a bad thing. But that's where sharing information or taking suggestions from people ACTUALLY doing it. Helps.
Hope to document our journey as we go.
Here's me with our last hatch batch of the year. I still have to finish the interior of the coop. I'm also switching to sand. But they needed a place to stretch out and it works.
