Spring planning is the only way we survive winter I swear. Me and mom pour over catalogs and make list after list. We are getting trays ready for tomato plants, keep sniffing the lemons growing in the heated greenhouse and praying spring gets here faster so we can get started. Going to do meat chickens. Going to buy a steer calf. Going to have baby goats being born. More fruit trees and a couple more elderberry bushes. Mom is charting out new areas to clear that she can plant up. I am marking spots that we might put the new herb bed. Then its back to catalogs again.
Heather it sounds lovely!
I want a big fat flock of Buff Orps. Out of all the breeds we have had over the years, I love them the most. They are lovable, have attitude, produce well.
Debit, I haven't ever had buff Orps. Maybe I will get a couple and put them in my layer flock. My favorite is Welsummer. Every year I want to get more, I had roo and a few hens, then 2 years ago a dog decimated my flock, I lost so many birds. But I got hatching eggs last year, but none of the roos were what I was looking for, so on the lookout again this year.
