Before delving into the world of chicken keeping, we were apprehensive. What if our venture into poultry proved to be a misstep? Little did we know, it would be one of the most enriching experiences of our lives. Our journey began with a simple desire for fresh eggs to grace our breakfast table. With no grand aspirations, we acquired a motley crew of chickens, guided solely by the prospect of homegrown sustenance. As we immersed ourselves into the world of poultry, a newfound passion was ignited! We uncovered the fascinating spectrum of egg colors, delved into the intricacies of breed standards, and embraced the art of intentional breeding. What was once a casual pursuit soon evolved into our beloved hobby. Witnessing the fruits of our labor take flight in our own backyard proved immensely gratifying. The sight of vibrant plumage, bustling activity, and, of course, those coveted eggs filled us with a sense of accomplishment unlike any other. Yet, our venture into chicken keeping was merely the tip of the iceberg. It served as a gateway to a broader homesteading lifestyle, opening doors to new adventures and endeavors. Inspired by our feathered friends, we expanded our menagerie to include additional farm animals, each adding its own unique charm to our homestead. In hindsight, what began as a tentative step into the world of chicken keeping blossomed into a lifestyle centered around self-reliance and sustainability. Our chickens were not just egg layers; they were catalysts for transformation, guiding us towards a life filled with purpose, passion, and profound connection to the land.
Our family works together to nurture the animals on the farm to ensure that they enjoy the highest quality of life. Engaging in flock and coop duties serves as an invaluable opportunity to instill into our three children the values of responsibility and perseverance towards long term objectives. Moreover, these tasks offer firsthand lessons in self-sufficiency, imparting the importance of providing sustenance for our family without relying on conventional grocery store for sources.
