Hi, I am Debbie, I live in the very North of Portugal and would like to keep in touch with any one else in the North. At the moment I only have 3 young Wyandottes but we're building a lovely big stone coop in our woods so I can start a small flock for eggs and meat, but would like to point out that I still very much consider them pets which amuses my local neighbours who think I am the crazy bird lady on the hill - because I also have wild bird feeders which the locals are astounded by! Animals in this area have no purpose as pets to be pampered only for food or a guard dog or virtually feral cats for ratting. Even horses that I thought were kept for riding, I soon discovered were for meat only! So I am gradually adjusting to accepting their ways, but as much as my neighbours all love me - I appear to be a constant source of amusement to them! So look forward to talking with any one on my wave length.
