Hello All,

I'm new to the forum thought i'd say hello, i'm living in rural Shropshire trying to be as self sufficient as possible, seem to have cracked the veg growing but hoping to expand into livestock. I've had chickens before but would like to have a few more animals roaming around and also hope to get some hints and tips from all you lovely people,

Hi there and welcome

Hello and Welcome. I hope you get as much support, encouragement and advice as I have over the years.
How much ground do you have? and what are your current thought on choice of livestock? Do you have experience of any? Not that I can help I'm just interested. But I do know people who went down the Lamas and Ostriches route.

Hello

I've got a sizeable vegetable plot and greenhouse with a quarter of an acre field next to it, i've had chickens a couple of years ago but that's it. I had a baby a year back so we downsized everything a bit while i was expecting but he's 14 months now and i would love to get some more chickens and maybe some ducks and geese and get him into helping me with them and the veggies. Wish i had the room for Llamas and Ostriches as my little boy loves anything with fur and feathers

I've already had some good reply's from a post i put up, the advice and knowledge I've received already has been invaluable and have been reading various post's put up by others and have had some good hints and tips

Just would like to say thanks to all for making me feel so welcome xx
