My wife and I recently started a preschool program out of our house. Our theme is an Urban Farm Preschool. We have about 3/4 acres in a small city.
Currently we have rabbits and chickens. They are in a penned off area per the instructions of our insurance agent.
My wife incorporates both into her curriculum - the children fetch eggs from the chicken coop, and they care for the rabbits by brushing them, holding them, etc, and they feed and water them both.
Can we write off all costs associated with these (food, housing, etc)? If not, which expenses?
Thanks in advance!
