Hi Curtis,

White Rabbit is great. I think you should contact them directly for specifics though,, via the WOOFers website. When we left their farm was in transition.

I am going to be quitting my job early next year and embark upon a year-long plus wwoofing expedition. I have already booked on farm and White Rabbit Acres sounds great for my next one. Would you care to share any specifics about their farm? Thanks.

OK, tending the chickens, for those of you who don’t know…

Chickens need things, like food and water. And someone has to clean out their filthy, poop laden nests in the coop. Simple things like that keep them happy and productive, and breakfast on our plates!

But don’t let this easy list fool you; chickens are a pain in the ass! They are stupid and mean, and will peck at you all day long unless you feed them on schedule. I’ve learned that you don’t bust out with the feed bag unless they are all cooped up. If you let them out first, and then feed them, they will ATTACK!
