The day has finally come!!

here in s w Missouri, huge broiler and turkey g rowers. the farmer puts up the bldg., furnishes labor, sawdust, ( NO bldg. ain't cheap!), the co. furnishes birds, feed,.....

I have a few hens for our own use, and sell a few to pay for feed. free range birds, locked in roost a t night. they molted, quilt laying last winter. I had to BUY eggs!!!!!!!! wow !!! the only ones I could eat were EG Best and another brand of expensive eggs!!!!!!! LOL BUT such a difference in taste!!!!!

non rural people also don't get the fact that farming and ranching is NOT just a way to make a living, it is a lifestyle, a way of life. not necessarily easy, not always profitable, BUT... God Bless the farmer!!

to wake up everyday and walk out the front door, and see green grass, livestock, fresh air.... NO people..... I can not put a price tag on it.....
