Share a little about yourself.
I was born and raised in Lexington, KY. I showed reining horses for years, but put competition on hold after getting married and having a daughter. My husband is also passionate about horses, having competed in eventing in Germany before moving to the US. Although we both still enjoy riding in our free time, our current focus is on raising quality Bielefelder chickens and Bourbon Red turkeys, and we also have guineas and quail. We typically have over 200 birds following the breeding/hatching season.
