We went to Tractor Supply to pick up some food for the big chickens, and we got to looking at the new chicken houses that they have in there. Naturally I got really excited about them, because they are just so fun and perfect looking. All of a sudden I could imagine adding another chicken to our breeding list. *sigh* Right now we are planning on breeding for Sex Links, Rhode Island Reds, and French Black Copper Marans, I just don't think we need to add Easter Eggers to the list just yet. (although the EE are quite popular considering they don't lay the best)
I do have plans to have different houses with different breeds set up. I have dreams of having my very own little hatchery that people want to come and visit so that they can take home those little chicks to raise up and enjoy. I love the thought of literally surviving off of what we could make off of a farm, we would never be rich, but at the same time, we would never be hungry. I just need to remember that we will fund everything with what we make from the different breeds. We just have to remember a little bit at a time. I like the thought even more that its something my hubby and I can do together. (That's my favorite part)
The first thing that needs to happen is, all of this crazy snow needs to stop!!! Its looking like we have a big snow storm coming, and that I'm not looking forward to. I'm hoping that it will wear itself out before it gets here.
