The 5 from my original batch will be 5 weeks old tomorrow- they are still inside! the coop will be finished this week (FINALLY!) just in time for 5 more to arrive- I'm getting 2 barred rocks and 3 buff orpingtons from empire acres farm this weekend. Here are a few pictures....

Weird. Did he fall and break his neck?? That's a poor way to start your day... worse when its raining. Hope things get better.

Question: Where can I find a couple geese? Breeders in Maine or friends... anyone? I do have kids so I'm hoping to raise these ones to be human tolerant :) No butt pinching.
 
I'm pretty stoked... I may have found a nannying job at a small homestead. I've been talking back and forth with this woman and she seems like she'd be the perfect fit. I'm just waiting for her to call, hopefully tomorrow. I need to find a way to get more money rolling in. I'm broke now, and I'm stuck trying to figure out how to pay off my debt with no income. :( That said, if anyone needs a babysitter or help with anything...! Haha.

I'm sorry to hear about Whitey. :( He's very handsome. At least he got to live a happy life.
 
MKandtheforce, I don't know where you are located, but it would be great if someone ran a little house-sitting/chicken tending business. I have no idea what I will do the next time I try to go away!
