Folks already got me covered as far as that goes too.

A couple meals per month would be about perfect, I'm not looking to replace all my meat with home gown, but a little bit would be nice. I mean, most animals replicate if you give them enough time and mates (which doesn't work for chickens in town because no roosters). Rabbits is honestly a decent idea, I'd have to do more research into them though. I'd love to start an insect farm but convincing the wife is going to be a tough sell. She's down for chickens. *looks it up* ... I think we got a contender here.

That'd be great, but I'm looking for sustainable stuff I can do on my relatively small lot. That's why chickens would be about the perfect choice, except I can't really get anything out of them.

Ideas. The fish suggestion was one I hadn't thought of before, figured there was probably some other small edible critter I hadn't thought of that somebody'd be all like "Hey, why not ______?" and I'd be all like "Huh, you know I never thought about that hang on let me check the city ordinances." and then a little bit later I'd be like "Wow, looks like I could totally grow _____ in my backyard. That's awesome." @André Toulon I've already looked up Kangaroos- I don't need a permit but they're pricey.

Fuck pigs. Never farm pigs. Disgusting creatures when farmed.

Growing up my cousins had goats and my parents have sheep now. I'm well aware of what goes into their care, and especially how good they are at escapes. We already talked about the fish thing.

Goats are way too big and require way more care than I can provide, plus slaughtering them would be more of an issue than the chickens.

I listen to the local college station, when I listen to the radio. They are really good.

Nah, they can keep their stuff, I just want to see what I can do on my plot.

They've already got one and it's big.

Yeah I got like 10x20 feet I figured I could throw a coop or a hutch on or whatever.

Not in town, I'd have to pack them into the car and drive outside the city limits to chop their heads off. And I can only have 5 at a time.

Thats a great idea but i don't have quite enough space for it.

We get venison every year and to the best of my knowledge *checks local laws* I can legally hunt deer using a crossbow in my back yard.

Got a spot out back I want to put a food forest, but otherwise we were planning on getting a garden going closer to the house.

I'd like to be more self-sufficient when it comes to food (like I'm working on with booze), so I'm trying to think of some critters I could grow and eat. I got enough space for chickens I figure, but I can't eat eggs so they wouldn't do me much of any good except for just killing the chicken, and that seems like an awful lot of work to put into something you only get to eat once. Same problem with rabbits. Probably just shoot squirrels and get the same return on investment. There's crickets, which pound for pound would yield about the most protein, especially when you factor in the ease of care... I could just do that in my basement though, and I've got a chunk of outside space I was figuring on using. Any suggestions?

Chances are it was a pretty stupid person who said it.

Loose-leaf pipe tobacco smells pretty good, and on a whim I decided to look up making mead using it as an ingredient. Yeah don't do that, nicotine will kill you dead. I heard from somebody, don't even remember who are how long ago, but they started using nicotine patches and gum without ever smoking and were now pretty much addicted to them.

I wish you luck.

It wasn't the best thing ever written but it was entertaining and would make for a pretty good movie if done well, that's all I'm arguing.

This is the other one that scared the living shit out of me. The main characters are responsible for destroying everything for everyone.

Single-minded focus on a specific goal resulting in the complete destruction of all one holds dear. It's absolutely horrifying.

This is my victim thread ghostrek.
