Would you like to be collecting farm fresh eggs from your own flock of chickens or perhaps you would like to sit down to a dinner of roast turkey that you raised yourself. Raising poultry in the backyard can be a rewarding and family fun activity while at the same time providing greater food self- sufficiency.
Russell Welser, Senior Resource Educator will share his years of experience in raising backyard poultry. He will be covering the basics including: different breeds; purchasing and receiving your birds; equipment and housing requirements; feeding and watering; disease and parasite prevention; egg handling; slaughtering and regulations.
