I stopped raising chickens after my last bunch was killed off my a hungery sow raccoon with about 15 babies... BUT I LOVE LOVE LOVE your rooster profile photo.. very colorful and just georgious! thanks for posting the picture.
Yup... that's quite a big spread. My DH and I are looking to buy about 100 acres in my home state to farm. We'll lease out at first and work along side to learn. It's been 30 years since I ever worked on a farm.... Funny, most people retire to 'easy' life. DH and I want to retire to something that keeps us active and gives us simple enjoyment, simple life and some darn good organic food on the table.
um and sorry to hear about your chickens.
