New Hippie Homesteaders

[New Hippie Homestead]

Hello! We are a brand new micro homestead in development in central Wisconsin. (We have just under 1 acre.) I have some limited experience raising chickens as a kid. We will be adding our first chicks this spring, probably some bantums. They will be our pets and treated as royalty. We will not eat them, just the eggs. A garden will go in the same time they do. We're just getting started so I'm sure we'll make a lot of mistakes. Hopefully having a group like this can help. Thanks!

New Hippie is an oxymoron, isn't it?

Welcome to the site. Lots of good information here. I'm newbie chicken keeper. I have 6 babies about 10 weeks old now. Learning as I go... no experience - just wanted to try this backyard hobby. Best of luck.
