Flock is small this season, but it keeps the family happy and the respect and stewardship it teaches the kiddos is worth it.
Raccoon nabbed 4 of my ducks, after I had gone back to get a few more, so now I only have the one large peckin and a few swedish. Needed a low maintenance alarm system to alert me to coons and bobcats so I also grabbed a few guineas, which then prompted me to get turkeys to be the actual guard dogs.
I'll take the lack of chickens this spring as a blessing, as it gave me an opportunity to try turkey. They are all super tame and haven't been tearing up my yard like chickens in years past. While I do miss getting my daily eggs right outside, having actual grass/clover to hold soil during the heavy summer rains is a plus.
