Man, y'all sure have been busy bees! After reading about all your gardening ventures I may have enough motivation to go out and pull up all the baby trees my maple spawned over the last 2 years, and try and find my garden under all the weeds! Maybe by next week I can get a few plants in the ground! The babies are doing great! They have grown so much since I started them on fermented starter feed! The hubby built me a wonderful step up brooder with a run for the babies.
This weekend was my son's 7th birthday, so all last week I was crazy busy getting the house in order for his party. It was great, even if the weather changed our plans a bit.
We had sunshine for the first day Wednesday and the babies got some time outside in the grass. Our new neighbors even came over to take a peek at the little ones. That was the first time they really spoke to me, so I think that is a step in the right direction. Once I have enough eggs I'm gonna send the minions over with a dozen. My father dropped my egg container and all but 2 cracked :-( fortunately the girls are going strong and we are already up more than a dozen (pretty good for my 6 hens ranging 2 to 4 years old).
Well I suppose I should stop rambling and get my evening chores done so I can try and get back into some sort of schedule. I sure do hope the sunshine stays around for a while!
