My dream is to own a small farm someday, raise chickens and turkeys and maybe have a beehive or two.
I've heard of small-time, chiefly sedentary beekepers (as opposed to migratory pollinators or honey flow chasers) in the Deep South, where there are SHB (Small Hive Beetle) problems, not only putting their colonies on stands, but setting things up to where the chickens can scratch the ground underneath the colonies, thus reducing or curing SHB problem for that location. Chickens might be good at keeping ants away, too. Ants can take over weak colonies.
