Wow Paul,
sounds fabulous!
Would have to find a house sitter able to look after my Wyandotte hatchlings, but can't think of a better way to see a bit of the USA & do a bit of trans Pacific Permie networking!
That's if you want a crazy Aussie Permie along for the ride. Finish my design course 1st weekend of September & have to look at my own finances.
Also have my dad in a nursing home here, not in good health!
Not a good time of year to leave my chickens. If heat strikes. When are you looking at going & for how long?
Cheers
Fiona
