A Tip for New Homesteaders

Last week, I was asked to share a tip for people new to homesteading or raising animals. My answer was a little different from the others, and people liked it.

My answer:

Invest in good infrastructure. Put in strong pens, fences, manure collection systems, auto feeders, auto waterers, slant cage bottoms so eggs roll out, etc. You will save money and will be able to efficiently manage your workload. I like being able to "eyeball" the food and water and keep moving in the mornings.
