Hi, all!

I've been here on BYH for a while, but just found the Wisconsin thread so I thought I'd stop and say, "Hey!".

Gotta do something to while away my time away from BYC.

Love, Linn Bee (aka Smart Red) Gardening zone 5a - 4b in south-est, central-est Wisconsin

Reviving the link. Would love to keep this thread open. I have been on BYC for a while, love my girls! Now adding more critters...goats. I am in Waukesha county. If there is anyone in the area would love to chat more. Need to learn as much as possible before I bring my new critters home.

Hi to all!
My family lives outside Prairie du Sac. We have 6 llamas with two cria due this spring. I love to spin and process my own fiber. We would like to add chickens, a backyard dairy cow, worms (composting), and more fruits and veggies to our little spot. I'm hoping to connect with a like-minded family so we could perhaps see how they have their farm set up. We don't have a lot of space (much of our 35 acres is prone to flooding) and need to manage our space very well - using intensive grazing and planting techniques. My husband has a traditional farming background, but all I know is what I've read! If anyone is willing to entertain a couple of curious visitors with lots of questions, we'd be most grateful. I'd really like to hand-milk a cow !
Thanks in advance for the help!

Sara,

Welcome. You need to get chickens! I love my girls so much they are hysterical. Mine are layers vs meat ( I get too attachedd) Chickens are so amazingly easy and you will love their eggs. Read up at www.Backyardchickens.com It has given me volumes of knowledge just like this site! I am working on getting my few goats next week as I ease into my" petting zoo" as the neighbors call it..haha. I am in the Waukesha area, not very close to you I am afraid. However, there are plenty of people in your area. I am sure they will 'tune" in and give you a hand.
