Dottie the Chicken's Flock (Lydia's Layers)

It's time to get this thread rolling! I'd like to make some friends!

For those of you who don't know:
My name is Lydia. I live in Wisconsin on a small family dairy farm. We have mostly Jersey cows, with one pure Aryshire, and some crosses. Every cow and calf is named. We also have some barn kitties, who all have names as well.

We are currently milking around 40 cows. We bottle feed all of the babies. Our farm's co-op is Prairie Farms.

I've shared quite a few pictures already on @black_cat 's farm chat thread, but I can take and share more here. I also have lots of poultry pictures.

I sell eggs. I currently have 68 chickens. For the past few days I've been getting 49-low fifties eggs per day.

Thanks for coming! Please feel free to introduce yourselves!

Hi, Dottie. Pretty cows!

This is Hope. She is currently in the heifer/dry cow yard. She is pregnant, and I believe she was due yesterday. Hopefully I'll remember to post pics of her baby when she calves.

I hope her delivery goes well! Baby pics would be awesome! Watching animals give birth is so amazing.
Thanks for inviting me to your thread! I love all the pics!
