I just wanted to share my excitement!

I’m getting back in to meat rabbits!

The backstory is that I got divorced and had to give up my goats, chickens, rabbits, sheep and cows. this past winter, I helped my then boyfriend get going with meat rabbits. He acted like it was a shared project at first, and then got weird about it. He broke up with me shortly after breeding rabbits (thank you avoidant attachment).

One of the things that I took from this was not to wait to do the things that I want to do. one of the things I’m trying not to learn from this, is to be bitter and not collaborate with people 😂

Anyway, the stars aligned and an old friend reached out to me, offering me some rabbits that are direct descendants of my original meat rabbit herd!
I cried real happy tears and ordered cages and supplies immediately.

Cages come Tuesday, rabbits come Wednesday or Thursday!

If you made it this far, thanks for reading!

Quail

Looking for hatchery recommendations on where to buy quail chicks.

I had a bad experience with McMurray Hatchery several years ago. it was long enough that I might be willing to give them a chance again, if someone has had a good experience recently 😂

I looked locally, but there are no options .

thanks!

New Hampshire

Who is off-grid in NH? what about off-grid homesteading?

What do you like about where you are? what do you not like?

What do you wish you had done differently?

What do you wish you had done sooner?

Any other insights on homesteading off grid? I’m thinking rabbits, goats, maybe chickens and maybe sheep.

My future is up in the air now, but I am thinking hard about off grid living. I have lots of homesteading experience, but not a lot of off grid experience. I think that I want to stay in NH, but I want to hear more about people’s experiences.
