I'm thinking about starting a backyard flock. I'm very overwhelmed by all the things to take into consideration. Would like to get them this spring but I'm not going to until I have the coop built, per all the advise I've read. I know from owning horses that farm animals are a big commitment and don't want to do this just because. One question I have is how much time do they take per day on average. And when you go out of town what do you do. Our horses are boarded but we are self care but do have someone to fill in at the barn if we're gone. Sorry for the long post, I'm new to forums as well, first post ever. Thank you Melani
