 Looking for someone interested in being a sisterwife.  We live off grid with a homestead and huge permaculture orchard. We follow the bible as close we can and celebrate biblical holidays.

I am a hard working husband. Very family oriented. Have all the skills needed to build and work on our farm successfully. We are a close knit family living and enjoying the off grid life.
I work from home building our homestead and home businesses. We are working to provide our family with healthy food and an agricultural based lifestyle.
Looking for someone to add to our family and continue our pursuit to provide the best quality food and life for our kids. Someone that will enjoy our lifestyle with us and help us provide the best future for our children & future children.

Hopefully you got your ducks laying by now but I figured Id respond with my two "go toos" if mine stop laying. Its late in the season now so I wouldn't expect them to be laying a ton now unless you've got them under lights. My first is adding red pepper flakes to the feed- itll help clear anything if there clogged and help everything run smoothly. I'll ad a whole spice bottle full to a 40/50 lb bag. And my second thing would be to buy a bag of the catfish feed Or cat food(there usually about 30% percent protein) and add it to my feed mix. This usually helps of their going thru a molt it'll speed up the process or if their lacking some protein it'll fill the void.

I rescue alot of ducks as well & the first thing I tend to do is  give them sweet potatoes or something thats high in niacin as well-this can really mess with them if their lacking in niacin. Most people just feed ducks chicken feed which is usually pretty low in niacin and if there not finding it when free ranging and can really mess with them. Especially if they were raised on chicken feed & with minimum free range then sometimes it takes awhile to get them where they need to be.

My ducks eat less and out produce my chickens most pf the time and their pond water does wonders to my garden so they are well worth the effort but you just got to learn to notice the little signs and know when to supplement.

Not sure if your still looking or if you'd even be interested but We are a family of believers doing our best to follow the bible as closely as we can. I'm a wife and mother of four and looking for another partner for my husband so we can have an even bigger family on our homestead(like alot of people in the bible). My husbands is in his 30s, very good looking & fit and works incredibly hard building & taking care of our homestead.  Kind, funny, and easy to get along with. We've been building everything from scratch on our homestead and he's had all the skills to do it. Our kids are homeschooled, no vaccs and they've never had any medications. We are plant nerds and spend a good bit of our time gardening & have a huge permaculture type garden.  Anyways would love to hear from you if this may be something you'd be interested in.

We've been giving our quail scraps from the garden or any extras trimmings and they seem to enjoy everything from greens to squash. Their favorite seems to be the cucumbers.

Were interested in raising pigeons for their manure and eating them as well. Any preference on breeds? I like the homing pigeons-anyone used these for meat? Has anyone tried their eggs?
