RE: The Guinea Keets went Offgrid!
THAT is a good start on a flock! You can't have too many critters on a homestead.
I enjoy your posts, so keep them coming! :)

Thank you!! When I go to pick up those baby goats in a few weeks I will tell my husband you said that. hehe hehe
I have a terrible tick problem on my land that we are trying to move to. My last visit there resulted in 100 or so bites. Very dangerous. I need to get them under control before I move my animals there. So the plan is....you know how plans are...but anyway...the plan is to build to a large flock so when I go in to build fence i will take Guinea with me. Me and them will go prepare the land for the rest of the family. i need about 100 so I will get more but these are my first ones and I just adore them.
Chiggers? OH NO! I sprayed last year late, because they were eating me! I want to hatch and release quail, a couple of hundred will clear out the entire area.
Fence the Goats, or they will climb on your cars!
:)My horses will climb the cars and have! It's all good.
I'm getting two girls to train to pull carts, help me with grass control and milking.
Yeah, the chiggers favored my husband. But he got some ticks to. I know my critter posts seem silly to some people. I really do love my animals. But my plan is that everything and everybody is multipurpose. Everyone has more than one job with intertwined connected purpose... I really do have a plan and God willing it will come together.
Horses on the cars is a lot worse than goats! WOW!
Chiggers just about killed me! I had several hundred bites, and was not able to sleep for days.
I can tell you have planned, you know what you need, and which to start with to make it work.
:DYes we have planned for a long time. My husband had a hospital stay last year that set us back but we are pushing forward. Thank you so much for your comments and support
We share a similar journey, so what small help I can be, you are welcome to! Be hard headed, that seems to be the best homesteading tool!
:DIn fact, I just got Debbie home from the Hospital; 8 days ago.
>:(I hope she is doing well. Prayers for a speedy recovery!
She has MS, but she is improving. That is driving her doctors nuts; but she is fine! She just started running a high fever, which hit her hard because of the MS. I had to carry he to the car, because she couldn't sit up.
We beat the fever, and I have her back home now. So glad, she is my heart and soul!
It is slowing the move, but not stopping it!
