Today I talk about the benefits of poultry. *Meat - Not the primary use but definitely something that can be considered and accounted for. *Eggs - Probably the #1 reason to keep poultry. *Variety - Whether you have a lot of room or none, you can find the right species and breed for you. From quail to ostriches you are only limited by imagination. *Manure - Some of the highest nitrogen fertilizer you can't buy. *Pest/Weed Control - From quail eating small beetles out of your garden to guineas eating ticks to turkeys eating insects too large to handle otherwise. *Pets - Some of my best friends have been birds. *Financially - Find out how two country bumpkin teenage boys were able to turn a profit year after year.
