They're like Cornish in that they're completely dependent on unsustainable grain agriculture. Unlike chickens, they have very low feed impulse. IDK how I'd like one on a small farm really. The ones that are crossed with Angus do a lot better and act like they want to eat.

On my half acre now, I have six peaches, 5ish pecans, and half a gob of blackberries (so far), but there's still more to do. I'm basically using this space to practice, learn, and refine some techniques.

The rabbits are a mainstay here. The only thing I've been able to make any kind of money on. I actually have rabbits because I found out how retarded Cornish cross chickens were. Picky, centralized, unable to feed from the homestead, and rabbits are the exact opposite. And they're so stinking TASTY. And that's to say nothing of their superpower: poop. We love rabbit poop.

What's WSU? I just sat in on a crazy basic beekeeping seminar this weekend at the homestead fair at Heritage Homestead in Waco. Bees would be a really cool complimentary venture with any plant operation. Which means I'll have bees at my orchard/farm when I grow up. I decided not to do them here though, I'd want to give them more space than I have.
