Prairie and Lake - Wise

House on 31 acres, we are striving for a self sustaining lifestyle. We homeschool and our whole family participates in caring for our animals and farm.
This is a rural area and we are 12 miles outside of town.
There are 2 cats,1 dog, and 1 fish that are family animals and live in the house.
3 dogs are Pyrenees and work with the animals they stay outside with the farm animals.
We have a large barn to house many of the farm animals as needed and 4 rotating pastures for them.
We try to set up the animals to be as easy as possible. Currently we let some animals out of the barn in the morning and put away inside it at night. So there is twice a day care needed.
Farm animals include: 7 cattle, 13 goats, 8 sheep, 50+- chickens, 4 guniea hens, 10 turkeys, 10 ducks , 1 goose. 10 pigs.
Goats and birds need to be put in at night.
Dogs and cats are all fed at night also.
Farm animals have designated stalls, pastures, pens that they are in, generally they just need waters checked in the morning and refilled. We feed in the evening.
We also have gardens, and pots, that need watering depending on the time of the year. Hot months need more watering.
