that is going to be a great farm!

what breed of geese did you choose? what colour are muscovy ducks? and what breed of turkeys are you looking for?

I will get some royal palm turkeys as they get the best price to sell. I like bourbon red as well so if I get guinea fowl I might put some bourbon red with them. royal palm will be housed with peafowl.

I suggest you get some indian runner ducks. they are amazing. great foragers, they will eat all slugs, snails, etc. and with a handful of wheat you finish your daily care of them. they are laying machines too.

X2! I had my first poults of the year hatch on Thursday with more hatching every week. Bourbon reds, royal palms, penciled and red bronze. I love turkeys lol

I will plant raspberries and mulberries too!

Mulberries tree are great for them ,fast grower and the chooks love they fruit to .they give a lot of shade in the summer months .

Here are some of the pullets. The last photo is my girl with barely any copper, but, she is a lovely pullet to have around with a sweet disposition.

I like them ,they are gorgeous ,lovely hackle marking and good quality copper too .
