RE: Chick Update On The Homestead

in #blog6 years ago

It looks like you have taken precautions and watch them.

It's always bothered me that people do not free range responsibly and the chickens are always being killed. On some groups, they will say they just lost their flock to predators, sometimes multiple times, and then ask for more birds to replenish. To me, that is inhumane.

Seems like such a waste, all the time, money for feed, and loss of bird's production.

Yeah, the New Herb garden is flashy. LOL But the veg gardens look pretty good too! I just don't have a high vantage point to get good photos of them.

Oh I agree completely! We have been lucky and have not lost a single one... if that changes we will change our habits with that. No use in investing all the money, time and love just to then leave them in danger. A group of our younger ones have been heading deeper into the forest lately and I am constantly having to heard them back up, I’m hoping they learn their safe borders soon.

And your vantage point is amazing! It’s really beautiful.
