Nee to Chickens in Belen, NM

[Black Rabbit Farm]

Hey folks! I'm Reana (she/her, they/theirs) and I'm preparing for a move to Belen, NM next month. We have a little over one acre (Black Rabbit Farm & Apothecary) and are hoping to raise a few goats and chickens. I've worked in agriculture-related fields for 15 years, but only done up to garden-level activities so far.

I'm excited to get chickens started, but know I have TONS to learn. Looking forward to learning from this group!

Salve (Latin for hello) and ! New Mexico sounds like an interesting place to move because of the desert. Be sure to do research on breeds that can tolerate that climate . I hope you enjoy your time here!
