Many have ways around it if you don't have a rooster ( no crowing for your neighbors) and if you have a privacy fence. Best of luck with the quail and the veggies though.

I am looking into raising quail as an alternative. That will have to get me through for now. That and the veggies ;)Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12447113571069402625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512868575052222329.post-7085182261156602102012-05-21T16:40:41.823-05:002012-05-21T16:40:41.823-05:00we just started homesteading in our small backyard...we just started homesteading in our small backyard and I find your posts very encouraging! :) thanks for sharing it all , good and bad..T.L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01970700311173597381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512868575052222329.post-31908101577033774782012-05-21T14:07:42.108-05:002012-05-21T14:07:42.108-05:00" But I love where I live and am going to enj..." But I love where I live and am going to enjoy it" Boy that is right on!!! Thanks for following my posts, I have at least 2 others planned for this series.

It's easy to let one's expectations bring her down when things don't happen as quickly as she thinks they should! I was so discouraged awhile back because I want to be on a "farm" and be debt-free! That's not a bad thing, it's just not happening for us at this time! I'm not sure that it ever will, so I've decided to stop obsessing over it and I feel so much better! Sure, I want to be debt free and I still would like that farm, but I love where I live and am going to enjoy it! Thanks for helping us to see the reality of things!
