Barbara and her daughter Lily have decided to raise poultry for the family; Barbara will raise Bourbon Red Turkeys, and Lily decided to raise Partridge Rocks Chickens. Lily had told her mom that she wanted a horse and her mother told Lily that if she could come with $500, or half the price of an Equestrian horse, her mom would match Lily’s profit so she could finally have a horse. Before the discussion of a horse Lily was only going to raise chickens to sell the eggs but realized that if she sold the meat also, she could raise the money for a horse a lot faster. By raising the turkeys and chickens, it teaches both daughters about the difference between pets and food. It also taught Lily to work for something that she wants, instead of having everything given to her.
