The Chicken farm
“Why did you buy chickens?” I asked him over the loud cackling sounds of chickens, a rooster and 8 Guinea fowl birds. The chickens were in a coop but the Guinea fowls were running sporadicly under foot.
“Because I want to become as self sufficient as I can be. Then there is no food available in this country, I want to make sure I can feed my family. We aren’t going to go hungry.”
“And why did you buy the Guinea fowl birds? Do they lay eggs too?”
“No, I just like them. And they eat our mosquitos.”
