Hello!

[foresthomemama]

Hello, everyone! I live on the edge of the Colorado Plateau on the Mogollon Rim at 7000 feet. I raise rabbits and am very interested in learning more about chickens and raising quail. I have three kids, and I try to get them to help me with the animal chores so it can be a learning experience for them. I want my kids to learn about more self-sufficient lifestyles.
