Variegated bananas, baby chicks, and new diet! - Page 3

djmb74 · 03-02-2010, 05:54 PM

We are on 5 acres and can accomplish it just fine here but I am looking to move soon to a bigger piece of land.

My oldest son and wife want to start an animal rescue for birds and small exotics and farm animals.

You'd be surprised at the quanity of fruits and veges you can get in a small area by switching over to edible landscaping!

We're doing that little by little too. The big leaves from squash looked nice and tropical near the pool last summer!

Evolution.

So that must be Tech-Savy Reverse Evolution :^) btw some folks only use 1000 sq. ft. to provide all the veggies they need to eat for the year.

He might have if he didn't grow up with them.. I believe they were twice his size at first and didn't take long before he was having fun scaring them. Now he just gets them away from his food or eats they're food as it drops from the coop (its elevated to where he can chill out under it). :^)
