Thanks for your comments people, My kindest regards go out to all. I'm going to post some pictures this weekend of the land where i plan for the pigs and turkeys to be housed. As i want all the animals to be reared out doors and have large areas to be free to roam, with sufficient shelter when needed, i've decided to buy some weaners pigs to keep for 6-7 months from aprill, and look to introduce the turkey poults from end of june, which in both cases gives me time to erect there living areas. The pigs ?, i'm not really expecting to make a profit on, but to enjoy having them, many people talk of how fun they are to keep. I enquired to a poultry firm this week for 100 poults that were norfolk blacks, but the company were not able to do the order and directed me to Kelly black turkeys that we actually bought from our local butcher last xmas, i may do some enquires into the bronze that i presume is still popular and can be reared outside for the five months, lots to learn people, but im under no pressure to earn money from the farm, but i still want to pay a rent and cover food costs for my guests. Regards. kenny.
