hi Mick, :wave:

first thing I suppose is what do you see yourself keeping? Any previous experience? Any outbuildings? Do you want to be able to eat what you produce? is it suitably fenced?....for more specific info on pigs, sheep etc you'd be better posting directly on to that Topic page, livestock rotation is always a hot topic  ;D
