[QUOTE="memtb, post: 3055149, member: 75451"] But, they're self sufficient. We haven't completed our fencing and coop yet, so haven't got our birds. I did some research and picked our breed for, it's cold capabilities (zero and below), egg production, meat production, foraging capabilities, and a natural brooder. While they may not be #1 in any one category……they check the boxes in all! I put an 8’ chain link fence around the perimeter, with about 1 foot buried in the ground. This should help stop predators from going under…..a solar powered electric fence will be around the top. Eagles, hawks, ect. will be our only real problem. After the SHTF…..hawks/eagles will be turned into gumbo! 😉 We will let ours free-range whenever possible….will be housed at night! memtb [/QUOTE]
