Vampire Farmer
Jan. 4th, 2009 12:36 amNo, not someone who farms vampires.
Let's say you're a vampire, but not being an evil sort you decide to support yourself by farming and ranching. The farm animals provide a large supply of blood (provided this vampire mythology allows non-human blood to sustain) and whatever the farm produces provides you with your income.
Is there any reason why you couldn't do all your work during the night? i.e could you plant/maintain/harvest crops or take care of the animals?
Obviously you'd get a reputation for being a bit of a loon by the neighbors, but you could probably work around that.
Conversely, it might be less effort to simply buy a cabin somewhere and simply feed off the neighbor's cattle. This still doesn't exactly leave you with a means of monetary support though. Of course, your needs may be slight is the blood is taken care of.
