We are slowly changing our 7500 ft. elevation "homestead" too...put in a greywater system, got some chickens, have a should-be-bear-proof-composter, are collecting old windows for a greenhouse... We are now looking into composting toilets. Does anyone have any experience with the Euro Separret models?! They seem to be better because the urine can route into greywater.

I just "saved" some chickens from a local farm that couldn't afford to feed them anymore...I brought my flock home, and within one hour, one of our dogs had a head in its mouth. (I will be putting smaller wire all along the chain-link fencing too...) Anyhow, I was at a complete loss as to what to do. It was my first day with my chickens! I took classes, read, read, read, but the "real deal" is a different thing... Thanks to your videos, photos, and reading posts, I was able to pluck, clean, and butcher the chicken. She is now in brine, and my clay roasting pot is soaking in the sink. I can't tell you how thankful I am to you! Without you, I would have been lost, and it would have been an even more unfair turn for the "rescued" chicken.
