The chickens are finally laying well, now you just have to figure out what to do with all the eggs. :-)
I hope February is treating you better than January was, winter depression can be a real struggle! I have to deal with it myself.
Yes! We've begun selling our eggs to my husband's Co-workers. In the swanky town - we get $4 a dozen! I feel like we could have gotten 5, but, ah well, too late now! Haha.
I am feeling a bit better this month, but I am still just pretty groggy all the time, which is so frustrating!
Yes, I still feel groggy a lot myself, I call it the hibernation urge. :-)
Those poor chickens really didn't like that wind very much, did they...
Do you ever go over to the chat groups on discord?
I am on our Homesteaders Online group, and that's about it. :D
That's a good place to start. :-)
OH I am so glad you found me and you have a chi too!
I miss coloured eggs so I am going to get some easter eggers this Spring I think,
Following now too!
Yes! We actually just got her in late December! I'll be posting her story sometime in the near future!
Only one of my EEs is laying regularly right now. Had some hiccups with the other two that I hope fixes soon. Ugh.
I actually just got back from our local grain feed animal store as they just got in their first batch of Spring chicks and Ameracaunas were in the mix, so I had to get four. One is already super friendly and immediately comes to my tapping finger to eat when I say 'chick chick chick'. When they get older I am going to put one of my two pure bred lavendar cochin bantam roosters with them and see what sort of new breed I could get from them! I love chickens and this time of year when we get new chicks at all the local farm places!
I bet that one is a rooster! Hahaha. My most friendly chicks have turned out to be little boys. Oyyye. Hahah. Can you share some pics of its comb when you can actually see it? I've read (and experienced) that if their pea come has three rows, that they're typically a boy! I'd love to see if it's true for you too! I also found out that most, not all, of the white easter egger chicks are boys. Hahaha.
That video of Squeakers and Dutch is a hoot! Sounds like a good cuddle and a meal fixed her scare.
Those are some serious winds. Glad the goose co-operated and re-hopped the fence.
Cheering on the egg brigade... GO GIRLS!!
I find it hilarious when she tries to instigate play with Dutch. And then when he tries to play back, she just runs away. Haha. She doesn't do it with Koodge, but Koodge doesn't play very much anyway.
I caught that... Fiesty is all well and good, but MOM! SAVE ME!! Too funny!
OMG! The video of Squeakers trying to play with Dutch was so cute and funny. LOL! And the I read that his knee got her in the face...poor thing. I bet she saw stars. I bet that chicken shocked you when she jumped on your shoulder. She is beautiful and so are your eggs! : )
Isn’t it the funniest thing? You should see her at feeding time!! I’ll try to get a good video of it someday! Haha
best life with vikings life where nature meets its endless beauty and peek of passion to love, live, pace and care. Goat, Hen, Duck and dogs are most common known animals that we love and want to grow them. But with time and our modren life can not take these animals with our life. so we live with out them. but some people are have gifts from LORD to keep them these animals as pets and have much fun in life.
@farmstead thanks and also thank to lord to stay all blessings on u.
Funny that you say "vikings" as I am a viking in my heritage! I love animals, I have so much of a connection with them. Thank you so much for stopping by. :D
