Title: Hello everyone
Post by: Crazyhorse on April 27, 2011, 10:53:46 am

My first bees arrived yesterday in their own hive. I hope they will be happy here. We are both 'retired' and are fortunate enough to have thirty acres or so, presently trying to manage 20  :sheep: and a few  :chook: as well as a sheepdog. The sheep are in fact orphan/cade/pet lambs and are still on the bottle/creep/hay and indoors. There will be a big hooray when they are able to be out grazing. Anyhow, I look forward to sharing info and getting advice.

Welcome to the forum!  Wish I had more land - just an acre of garden, not much use as it's close to town.  What area are you in?  You may have other TASers near you.
