Looking to get the most out of my tractors. and implements. Right now i'm just a new chicken Rancher.:dance1:

Hey Sarge, right back at you! :welcome: To TBN. Isn't this a great site?

So, are you retired Army? Are you from that area of Alabama?

 

[Sarge76]

No.. not retired. I did a hitch right after Viet Nam..I signed under the Delayed Enlistment Program and the war had ended just before my Active Duty date. I am retired Law Enforcement / Public safety. (22 yrs) I'm right outside Ft. Rucker in a tiny place called Faydette in RURAL Geneva county.
Im originally an Air Force and Army Brat. Dad was USAF from 1950 to 1966 and the Army Warrant from 1966 to 1979. Big change from BX to PX and Blue to Green.
Been in Alabama since 1974

:welcome: From the northern part of Alabama (just northwest of the Huntsville area close to Ardmore) - and I've been down in the Ft. Rucker area for work a few times in the past (though I expect there have been changes in the last several years).

Are you raising chickens for meat, eggs, both -- or just because? (growing up my parents raised chickens over the summers for meat, and my grandfather had a commercial egg operation before he retired from commercial farming -- all of which was in central Minnesota).

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

Thanks for your service and your service.

My wife is from East Alabama but we are here in West Alabama because she wanted to be close to 5 grandchildren.

jjp8182 Nothing so fancy... I'm feeding 4 feral Chickens, Banty Roosters mostly. They started out as a loose flock of 15-20. as they moved down the road they were fewer and fewer. Grandkids love them so I've set up a feeding station and now they call our place home.
I really want to raise turkeys and quail. I'm still working on grading some roads and moving some dirt around.

I have more acreage and one tractor with similar terrain.

One thought is one tractor (Kioti CK2610) and one UTV (Polaris 500) are enough maintence for me.
