Hi I'm new to this forum,

 Ive been keeping a few chickens for a couple of years and Ive slowly been branching out first it was a few ducks then a couple of turkeys and now I'm renting a small piece of ground near Leek Staffs and have 5 middle white pigs!

Hi and welcome from the Scottish Borders amongst all my other beasts I have 2 turkeys, they are destined for Christmas dinner though. Don't think that I would like to keep them any longer. ;D

Welcome from Brittany, I keep pigs, chickens, ducks.  We did have a suicidal turkey who would follow me up to feed the pigs then stop for a sleep outside the fox den.  He died of old age.

Hello from me too, in Derbyshire.  Just over the hill from Leek.  I love going to Leek ......like the bric a brac market on a Saturday, and the poultry sale too.

I started off with a few chickens many years ago .....there are so many now, its hard to count, but I reckon there are around 80 running round free range!!!  And a lot of other animals too.
