Hello there friends. We are a family of two adults, twin toddlers, two dogs, and two cats plus a small backyard flock of five hens based out of Virginia. Sadly, our hens have had a rough few weeks with an overnight owl attack causing us to lock them in nightly and greatly reduced free ranging due to a neighbors new dog making visits to our property regularly. We are kept busy with all our animals and the tiny humans but would love to someday buy a larger plot of land so we can have pigs, goats, and maybe a couple horses. We are looking forward to coming through the threads to find free ranging advice.
