Molasses smells so bad

And that’s cool!

My cousin posted an idea on Facebook that I thought was a sweet idea.
When you lose a pet, attach their collar around their food dish and plant some flowers or other plants in the dish. I thought of you @KDOGG331 when I saw it.

The tub that came with the house has the drain on the wrong side for the new bathroom configuration, so I've already go me a pond for the balutties I'm going to hatch this year.

Noah is still harassing Annabelle but it’s not quite as obsessive. It’s slowly getting better. We still have a ways to go before I’m comfortable with leaving her locked up in the coop with them. I opened up the fencing between the ducks and chickens and have been letting them all co-mingle.

Now the chickens are having a blast scratching around in the fallen leaves.

Luna and Xena don’t mind. They join in the fun.
Bowie is in the big coop taking a dust bath in the shavings.

Elvis and Priscilla just watched him lol. She started pecking and scratching at the shavings as I was just starting to close the door. They are all out now and Bowie ran to his girls so now he’s on the duck side. Annabelle made her way over. Elvis and Priscilla are still on this side. So is poor Noah.

He can make his way over at any time. He just hasn’t yet. The girls could probably use a break from him tho. Lol.

Amber has been laying every day, which surprises me since she is a new layer. No kinks having to get worked out for her. If anything, they are getting bigger and darker. Not sure if you can tell by this pic but I can see the slight progression from each egg (from left to right).

And Annabelle is giving us an egg a day as well, which I think is just AWESOME! I had my first duck egg today. It is creamier than a chicken egg. I don't know how else to describe it. It was good tho.
