Change

We decided that since this is my first year I should do something easier and a little less expensive. So instead I am doing 25 chickens and 5 turkeys! I get them when they are only one day old so they stay at our house for 3 weeks then you can choose to keep them at your house for the remaining 3 weeks or take them to the barn. This way I don't have to go to the barn before and after school everyday. It will still be around $300 when everything is added together so we are still looking for sponsors or add-ons. I am planning on doing chickens every year (plus another animal) because only the first year is expensive since you have to buy all the supplies. After you have everything you end up making money because you only have to show 3 chickens and 1 turkey and the rest you get to sell. I get the turkeys in October and the chickens in January.

Getting Started

I am super excited to start FFA this year! I have been looking forward to doing it ever since I knew what it was. I get to pick out my lamb on September 17th and will post pictures of him/her as soon as I can. Thanks again for all the help!
