Looking to learn

woogiedaddy · Jul 5, 2018

Hi all, I am looking to get into raising some chickens next year and the group looks to be a wealth of information. I may be getting some guinea fowl this year to help control the ticks and other bugs in the yard. I found a few posts on that so far. Looking forward to being a part of the community.
