I look forward to reading the different posts on this site. My wife and I your were tired of living in a condo in the centre of Ottawa so in turn we purchased a small hobby style farm (7.5acres). Now we have twenty two chickens, a couple of guard cats, and one Peacock with two Peahens. We have planted a few apple trees, we keep a garden, so we have purpose in life again.
In the spring we plan on starting to incubate a few eggs and see what that brings us in fortune.
I would like to wish you all Merry Christmas from Darlene and I
