This is it.... it started with gardens and chickens and has evolved to rabbits... I'm not sure where it's going to end up but we are so happy to see the progress! I will be posting pictures of how it all came to be, what it is now, and whatever it brings in the future! I'm excited to see the progression weeks, months, and years from now. :fl

Glad to hear things are coming along! Never seems fast enough, but it takes time (and effort). Welcome to BYH. Glad you joined us. Chickens seem to be the gateway animal with rabbits being a close second... since you already have both, it won't be long before you add in the goats, sheep and cows :ya ;)

Here goes my storybook, at least the summary version. :D

We've always done a garden of some type... container, raised bed, traditional....

Well it turns out my daughter found out you can't have a successful garden without chickens!!! :eek::barnie

And of course then you have to have a coop/run!

Then your chickens get big and win lots of ribbons over the next couple of years... from shows that happen to take place in the same barn as the rabbits!

And then one day out of the blue someone offers FREE bunnies for your daughter to use as another 4H project for the upcoming year!!!

AND THEN you transition over from The Easy Garden to Backyard Herds and start building rabbit cages and a rabbit shed to begin your new adventure!!!
