Welcome to Steemit! Interesting life you've had so far. Sorry to hear about those battles you face, but sound to me like you have well thought out plans and are not a quitter. My wife and I thought about raising a few chickens but then quickly decided that they would be just another thing to take care of. I'll leave it to the experts! Beautiful feathers on the one in your photo above. Love the black outlines around each feather. Best wishes here!! Happy Posting. Hello from New Jersey USA
