You got a farm.

And I thought I had a lot to feed every day!!!!
Man that is a full time job feeding all of that livestock, Stickum

I keep several of the golden comets,Great layers and very people friendly,After you eat fresh eggs you won't go back to those yucky storebought eggs that have been stocked for three months before being sold .And my wife uses only fresh eggs for baking,sure makes a difference

I just think about the fruits of our labor, from the chickens (eggs) and the delicious goat milk and we make goat cheese too...Mmm. Then when that hog gets turned into ham, bacon, chops, etc...MMmmmm

Save me a bite or two of that bacon and goat cheese my friend....won't be long now

I'm in quite the jam over these chickens. We got 16 hatchlings back in October and my kids have raised them and of coarse named them. Turns out we have 7 roosters that need to go bye bye but the kids won't have it. I hoping that when they start crowing at 4:30 in the morning and waking them up they will have a change of heart. We'll see!!

Ask Scott how he got rid of the roosters. Maybe you can do it one at a time.

Good luck with that Kelly
