Fantastic!  :yippee:  Congratulations, and do tell us how you get on
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

Yes, we are planning on getting animals.
Already have two ponies, my partner's pets, though we are planning to use the chunky one to pull logs up from the woods and pull a chain harrow etc stuff like that.
The previous owner left us 7 bantams including two Pekins ( one of which died yesterday from something blocking it's crop - we noticed too late and were too busy moving stuff still).

We are planning on having a family cow for milk, cheese, yoghurt, kefir, etc and beef from her calves.
Goats, sheep, pigs, ducks, geese, rabbits............. and whatever else we can think of!

We have 27 acres, 5 of which are wooded.

Hope you enjoy it and it is everything you have dreamed of. Good luck  for the future
