Hi
I am completely new to any type of farming and would appreciate advice. My late husband and I built our house in a 4acre field 20years ago and have done nothing other than cut the grass and plant bushes and trees. My children are now teenagers and the plan is to have some animals and utilise the land better. Not looking to make money from anything just have a good supply of quality meat etc for family. I have had a couple of goats for a month now clearing an area of the land and got 9 rescue chickens on Saturday eve which I am delighted to say have given me 7 eggs each morning since. So what do people suggest I get next? I’ve been speaking to someone about a few piglets, another about a couple of Dexter’s and one about sheep but can’t decide what is best. I want to get a couple of turkey chicks ready for Xmas but can they go in with the chickens? Any advice gratefully received. Thanks Welshgirl
