I've had aquariums for tropical fish but never had much luck keeping them alive. I have chicks that I just moved outside, yesterday and will begin incubating eggs possibly next spring. I am also interested in raising quail down the road. I'm trying to become self-sufficient in the near future.
My next animals will be rabbits! I have a cage being built that will have 4 separate cages,which will be ready this weekend. I will be getting 1) buck and 2) does. New Zealands I'm raising them for meat.
