Hi everyone,
Recently my husband and I and our 2 young kids moved out to the country to my family farm with the hopes of being self sufficient. We have been setting up our vegetable garden which we hope to grow most of our own produce and have a cheap Chinese incubator which we currently have a few eggs in (which is not going well haha) we are hoping to raise our own chickens for meat and eggs and maybe quail too. Foxes are a real challenge due to our location so thinking of building some chicken tractors. We are also hoping to set aside some of our beef and sheep to live off too once we have taken over that part of the operation from my grandfather who owns the farm we have moved to.
Any advice on chicken tractors or incubating eggs would be greatly appreciated!
