www.SelfSufficientLife.com reminds me that now that the economy is pulling away from all of us, and we're all worried about losing our jobs, it might be time to visit this site where the content is related to surviving "in the country."

Be warned that they take their topics well beyond poultry to include info on gardens, bees and honey, and even home schooling your kids. That way your kids will be both smart and have a full tummy! The book on raising poultry is only 11 bucks, so it's an inexpensive, and useful, investment when you are thinking about taking the next step and building your first chicken coop! Personally, I like to read as much as possible before embarking on a large project like building a coop or raising chickens. If you're like my wife and I are, this may be a good quick read to add to your e-book shelf.

Self Sufficient Life offers well a ton of online and downloadable information, including:
