Pasture size - Goats/Sheep/Highland
I have 12 acres, all wooded currently. Home build will be complete around aug, and i want some animals. Thinking about a couple goats and/or sheep, chickens, cow.
How big of a pasture would i need to clear and plant to keep it from becoming pure dirt? I want to keep as much wooded as possible, so was thinking about clearing 4 acres and maybe dividing it in half to be able to rotate, but didn't how many animals that could support without decimating whatever is planted.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
-Samuel Adams
