Intro to Chicken farming

20


20 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Mar 26, 2017

I will talk to you about chickens, best breed for your goal, using your space wisely, the pros and cons of free-ranging vs fencing. Diet, treats, water! What about roosters? Do you need one? Would you want one? How many eggs would you get? And don't forget the benefits of chicken therapy! Mainly I'll answer your questions for your situation.

Training & Qualifications


I have had chickens for 8 years. I've had them free range, fenced, and chicken-tractored. I have fed them a variety of things, and I get chicks and raise them too. I've had a variety of roosters, and I've lost a flock to coyotes. I've even nursed two chickens back to health: one after a coyote attack and the other with a broken leg.

Availability & Preferences


my schedule is pretty open.

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

About Tracy Dear

First and foremost I am a Jesus follower- if that's something that "turns you off" maybe you know a cultural christian not a Bible-based Jesus follower. Next, I've been a wife for 19 years (I got mar...ried when I was 19!) . Then, I'm a mom to my five kids (4-15 year olds). I also homeschool my kids, so that's a big part of life. All of us at home all the time, it seems like! But most fun of all lately is being a mini urban farmer. I choose heritage breeds, which grow slower but are actually at risk of disappearing! I have chickens, goats, pigs, and rabbits. My hobbies are reading and writing. I read mainly nonfiction, except for the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. show more
