Hi, Lesley, and welcome to the TAS forums. Every journey begins with a single step - we dug up our front lawn to grow vegetables, much to the horror of our neighbours! Every year, we move things on a wee bit.

Hello, if you want it you will get it!!!! I didn't think much about Chickens, I love animals but Chickens!!! then I bought some last year and wish I had bought some sooner and had more, now i would love more birds, ducks, geese, Turkies etc etc, all you need is a good pen and run, mine have the top part of the garden as it is walled and they basicly look after themselves apart form a bit of cleaning and of course feeding and watering, great little things, I agree, start with Chickens....you WILL want more, Sandy

Hello from a snowy Scotland !

I agree with everyone else that making one small change and taking one step at a time is the way to go - supposing it's a windowbox with herbs or 2 wee chickens in the garden to start with - it's a start. And that's what counts.
Welcome to the forum and keep us posted !
