My name is Julie and I am living my dream in South Africa. I live on a farm and care for all sorts of animals but I have one species in abundance. Chickens!

When we moved here little over a year ago, there were around 30 Chickens living in our garden. We already had a few of our own and I made a hobby out of it. I have rescued several flocks of chicks, chickens with disabilities and even a clutch of eggs. We let nature take its course as much as possible and allow them to feed off of the land and live a natural happy life.

I love to nurture and care for living beings. I think it is what I was put on this earth to do.
