Good morning! After posting a couple of threads about my bottle calves, it's past time to introduce myself. My husband and I have a small farm (12 acres at home, 14 more a mile away) just outside of Kansas City, Missouri where we raise some livestock to fill our freezers and some for family and friends. I'm very recently retired from retail sales, so now I've got the time to devote full effort to my garden and all of the critters. Hubby entertains himself with the endless demands of equipment repairs, haying for several neighbors, and managing our cows and those of a needy neighbor.
We have (at the moment) 11 feeder pigs going to the processor in a few weeks, 41 chickens and 30 chicks at various stages of growth (48 more in incubators!), 5 pygmy goats, and a small herd of beef cattle (1 prime bull, 4 pregnant heifers, 2 yearling steers, and 2 bottle calves) arranged on both plots of land. Keeps us busy!
Looking forward to meeting you fine folks, and soaking up some wisdom and stories.
