    Dreaming of Spring Gardening in the middle of a Wisconsin winter

    I've been scouring the online sales for plants too. I thought it was only me! This past spring, I planted flowers in anticipation of my wedding in a few years so I could get out of paying a florist, and added 500 tulips and hyacinths this fall. I swore up and down that I wouldn't plant more...

    I have so much to catch up on! Life got crazy over here. Hope the holidays were good to everyone :) I told our neighbors that we were getting peacocks and made peacock stenciled sugar cookies that went over pretty well, and also found out that one of our neighbors previously had an emu until...

    My new peacock!

    I thought he may be a hybrid. That pink saddle is pretty unique!

    Time of day to free range? aka how to free range while working a FT job

    Actually, do you think having a timed feeder in conjunction with a timed coop door would work? As in I put millet in one of the timed dog/cat feeders inside the coop and have it click open shortly before the coop door closes?

    Good point. I was pretty determined to not have chickens, but this may be food for thought. Thank you!
