I'm starting a new venture. If you've read my profile you know that I like to learn new things. I know nothing about raising chickens nor have I had a blog. First a little background....
Two and a half years ago my husband lost his job. About six months after that I found a lump in my breast. A year of surgeries, chemo, radiation then losing my job and I was ready for a change. During that long time of contemplation about life I'd begun to notice quite a bit about the DIY movement that was cropping up into every aspect of American life. Whether due to our pioneering spirit and/or the sorry state of our economy, people living in urban environments were turning their landscaping into self-sustaining gardens and taking on small manageable livestock for food. A job opened up out west where I grew up in Nevada and I decided to take it. Not an easy decision since half my family is still back in Illinois. But here I am with an income better than unemployment, temporarily living in my parent's basement and looking for ways to stretch our rapidily declining American dollar.
