Welcome from Clackmannan.  Lots of bird people on here.  Are you right down south or sort of Lanark ish way?

Welcome from France.  We keep poultry for eggs and for the table and brahmas just for fun.

One of my pups is down there - on an estate.  Say hello to Bert and Ray/Heather if you meet an orange and white Brittany (French Gundog) (photo attached)

Only about 50 k from us.  I see a lot of Breton spaniels as they are popular with the hunt, but not this quality, they are superb.  A real credit to you

Hello whitesettler.  I am not so very far from you, just over the border in north Cumbria.  (I'm the right side - your side - of Hadrian's Wall.  But only just.)

Will you be selling hatching eggs in due course?  :)
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
