bibliophile birds
Lovin' The Homestead
i sat down to make my purchase list for the spring... well, the bird list anyway. i felt like i was being sooooo good, not buying birds just cause they were pretty (aka bantams) and not buying more than i actually needed.
yeah, right.
how do 36 chicks, 7 ducks and 15 turkeys end up costing $300? ok, turkeys are expensive... but seriously! i know my problem is ideological- i want well-bred, heritage and rare birds so i end up ordering from fancy places/breeders and it gets expensive fast. must suck it up and a) shell out the dough OR b) stop being so idealistic.
wonder how much my car is worth in the current economy? wish those d*mn chickens would hurry up and start laying....
