sapphire (sapphire@shortstacksran.ch)'s status on Tuesday, 24-Oct-2023 11:28:26 JST sapphire @givenup @NathanielHigger1488 @nugger @skylar I live on two and you’d be amazed how little you can plant on an acre when you get one, maybe two seasons a year.
You can keep dozens of goats if you’re willing to buy feed from an external source maybe but goats pull grass by the root, you can only keep “dozens” on 4 acres for about a year
Also remember ZOG has completely destroyed the soil worldwide and you’ll have to put in real effort rehabilitating your land -

I don’t think I got anything actually producing milk, usually just act as a waystation for family between properties/seasons/moves.
Wonder what our local market is for milk. I always assumed cow’s the only profitable one, if there’re enough schizos nearby

I said “dude IDK why everyone acts like it’s so expensive, it doesn’t even take that much time”
Been a costly stretch since then

My chick supposedly worked it out, for every 3 pounds of extra scraps we give the main layers we get 1 extra egg
