Well good things come to an end. My farming days are almost over. My family has let me be a farmer for over 22 years and now it’s time for them to start living an easier stress free life that includes a 10 min drive to the beach. We are going from farm life on 17 acres to neighborhood life on 1/3 of an acre. I have not lived in a neighborhood for 31 years. Gonna take some getting used to but the new place has a privacy fence and in a great neighborhood walking distance to some of the best fishing in Florida. A feed customer is buying our farm and going to continue to taise chickens, pigs and whatever else they want to do. All that being said, Ozzy from Yellow Brick Farms LLC has bought the feed business and will continue to make the best and freshest feed available at his farm. Nothing is going to change with the feed. He is gonna be farther for some and closer to some but please make every effort to continue to get the same great feed from him at the new location.
It has been a pleasure serving many of you over the past 8 years and am going to miss our little talks when you have stopped by to get feed. My phone will still work in Florida if you have any questions about your animals and as always if I don’t know I’ll point you to people that do. Now I am gonna have to start buying eggs chicken and pork from local farms in Florida but I will have and endless supply of the freshest seafood a fishing pole will catch.
Thank you everyone that has supported our farm for over 23 years.

Gonna miss this. Been putting leaf compost and letting the chickens over winter in the garden for the past 8 years and ended up with about 6” of great topsoil. Don’t think Florida has dirt like this. The field used to be row crops and the clay is what I started with.

Had a new customer that switched to our feed and in 1 week time frame from switching she got an extra 39 eggs and using less feed She has the old feed still out while using ours and they are not eating the old feed. Switching from free feeding to 1/4 # per bird of our feed, even though our feed is a little more expensive she is money ahead and getting more eggs. Nutrition matters. Fresh feed matters. Using the right feeders matters.

Apparently the fence came down and the chickens are hungry.

Just picked up the second pig of ours today split in half. He was 444 lbs hanging. Dropped it off at a my buddies and he sliced off a piece and fried it on a flat top with salt pepper and garlic. Holy moly. Th flavor was fantastic and really tasted like a ribeye. Full of flavor!! Looking at the color you would guess it was beef.

Ok I wrote a post and had AI rewrite it so if I dont sound like a hillbilly with poor grammar and spelling. This is what it came up with so if it doesnt sound like me it aint but It rewrote my ideas pretty good.

With my retirement approaching, I've considered offering farm consulting services to individuals interested in establishing small farms and homesteads. I can provide expertise on all aspects of chicken farming, including feed, feeders, coops, runs, and pasture management, as well as chicken processing and butchering. I'm also knowledgeable about pig farming, covering housing, feed, and feeders, with plans to expand into butchering, curing, and sausage making as I gain more experience. My goal is to help people set up their farms and avoid the mistakes I've made over 20+ years of raising animals, which have resulted in significant time and financial losses. While I've provided guidance to many of you over the phone, I'd like to offer on-site consultations to better assist. If I've helped you in the past, could you please send me a brief email describing how I've assisted you? I'd appreciate having references to demonstrate my experience in these areas.
