We started out with 6 to have a few eggs to eat.
Now we have 24ish laying hens. We give eggs to the neighbors,trade for other goods like salsa,etc and sell a few.
We have a menagerie of breeds, Barred Rocks,Rhode Island Reds,Red Sussex,Americauna,Orphingtons,etc.
We have a 2 acre strip pit in the front yard and a 47 acre strip pit about 100 feet from the house,they sure do
wonders for mosquitoes,bugs,ticks,spiders,etc.
Thinking about some Jersey Giants next spring for meat birds.
