Blue Silkie Rooster Attacks Husband

Our Blue Silkie Rooster Attacks Husband. Our blue rooster Ozzy, for some reason, tries to intimidate and attack my husband Bill. They don't often cross paths but when they do, look out Bill! Also, in this video we provide the build update on our second chicken coop. Other projects have pushed this coop build to the back of the line recently and we finally starting working on it again.

We purchased raw land, just over 5 acres, and installed the basics, a driveway, water well, sheds, chicken coops, and built our own house. Birch Moon Farm is now home to 2 humans, 2 cats, one dog and lots of chickens! Follow along with us while we build our homestead one project at a time.

ABOUT US
We are Bill and Rebecca and this is Birch Moon Farm. A simple living homestead/farmstead where we try to practice a simply sustainable lifestyle. In 2015 we purchased 5+ acres in the Vermont hills and for the first 18 months lived in a 250 sq ft RV, while we built our own house (with lots of help from amazing friends and family), 3 sheds, a driveway, water well, septic, 2 chicken coops.

So what made us do all this in our late 40's early 50's? Well, in 2013 Rebecca was diagnosed with breast cancer and mostly everything that goes with that type of diagnosis. And this all happened 6 months after our wedding. So after about 10 months of treatments, a couple of surgeries, chemo and radiation, we had had enough. We no longer subscribed to what people call the "American Dream". And we didn't want to wait until we were in our late 60's to live our dream. So we sold or gave away everything we owned, and took all our assets and started to live our dream where we would try to be as self sufficient as possible. Do we always succeed? Nope! But we try! And in the end, isn't that all that matters?

Birch Moon Farm is now home to 2 humans, 2 cats, one dog and lots of silkie chickens! Follow along with us while we build our homestead one project at a time.
