hello and happy new year from the North West

Post: # 182288Post Islaskye »

hi guys, another newbie here!
Im completly new to the self sufficient life style, had a little dabble late last year and loved it, especially making hampers as christmas presents. they went down better then the bought presents I got for others!
Ive made a new years resolution (and I dont usually make them!) to be more self sufficient and to get away from the commercialism that drove me potty at christmas!!!!!! :banghead:
Im getting some ex-bats from the BHWT and hopefully some quail from a friend.
So, does any one have any tips to get me started?

helo from california :sunny: and welcome to ish. :wave: there are a lot of poeple on the site that raise chickens, so am sure you will get a lot of help with your exbatts. :thumbright: i am not in a position to have chickens yet :( . i think its a good idea to start with things that you can see the results off quickly, that way it gives the motivation to do more things. :cheers: every little bit helps. :sunny:
