    I’m brand new to this lifetime dream. It may not be a farm in the country, but a 1/4 my beloved and I can handle together in our 69’s is such a blessing. So this idea may or may not help it’s just an idea to avoid poisons. The sheets of weed barrier, that you coul cut into 8” for 4 on each side held down with those yard staples Orr pea rocks if you have the money for the extra aesthetics I think that would be affordable as I have seen some homesteaders use that in their gardens to thwart weeds. I am on who loves what Abba Father plants in my yard for me often considered weeds, they make great wild salads and nutritious smoothies too.

    Hi I’m brand new to Freesteading and I have a few questions about chickens. I got my 4 girls April 2022, and although we only have a quarter acre it is fully fenced 6 ft. Height, and we have clipped their right wing twice. I’m wondering how often we have to clip them? Also my beloved and I want to get more this Spring, and I’m wondering if it’s a hard set rule that I need 12 hens to one rooster? Thanks bunches

    Thank you for your helpful advice. I’m not really tech savvy being in my 60’s and having learned to type in school on a manual typewriter. Thankfully someone saw my question and answered with help pretty swiftly since I’m just learning how the forum works.
