What to put in my new large pen
I have a pen that is not in use
And wondering what to put in it
Besides hens and ducks.
Its enclosed and safe wire and has a house that is large and off the ground.
My only worry is that it's way down my
Large garden and I have spotted a few foxes but the pen looks totally secure unsealed.

Guinea fowl
Monday, September 28th, 2020
If it’s big enough and plenty grass 2 store lambs and creep feed them and have them butchered locally for your deep freeze when they’re heavy enough

I rather not have Lambs as too much laws as regards butchering ect... Was thinking something smaller to be honest.

Quail.
From chick to butcher 8 weeks only, they start to lay eggs ~6 weeks of age. Yes, they are small but you can keep up to 3 birds/ sqft.

Guineas and peafowl if the shed is big enough
Friday, October 2nd, 2020
