Hey Teach is there a market for guniea pigs back there. Our first Amish sale of the year is next weekend and they usually have a lot of them. They usually go for 2-3 bucks each.Just wondering if it would pay to haul a bunch to the meet up.
 
Chuck,

I don't know what property values are going for, but in city area property does tend to be higher than in the country. Could you possibly find a new piece of land in the country rather than in town and sell the town property to buy a country property where you would have an easier time placing a trailer. The country property then might even be more in land than the city property. Just an idea and since you are being forced to wait 3 months, maybe this route could be quicker and in the long run more beneficial. I don't know for sure, but thought I would suggest.

So I am curious, how come the Amish raise Guinea pigs? I think they are really cute and always wanted one when I was young. My husband had one growing up.

Kate - some Amish train their guinea pigs to pull and hitch them up two by two to little spades to till their small kitchen and flower gardens.

Bring some...I have a minor breeding thing going and well...I really do want to eat some and at $2-3 i could eat that!
 
Well Kate I was curious about that too! Then I learned that they are very selfsufficent people who hunt for and raise most all their own food! :eek:Apparently guniea pigs are a very easy and cheap to raise "meat" animal if you aren't to squimish!
