Laura-Cute ducks!

Hillbillyhen-that is a great idea, thanks for sharing.

Scifisarah- I am very close to you, but we pluck by hand. Our last meaties plucked so easy, they were great. Hope it goes well for you guys.

Had a great day here, picked up a 4th new bunny. Man they are so cute. The kids have been playing with them all day. They have the cutest baby goats at the farm, but Big Russ still says no way.

Everything looks great. The only suggestion I could offer would be to build a shallow box with a sheet metal bottom to place under you ladder roost. 90% of the dropping will be in that and you just pull it out occasionally to empty.

Good day today. Nice weather. It was a little windy so I got 3 loads dried out on the line. We got all the lawn mowed and the weed wacking done. BBQ with the parents. Venison chops and steaks on the grill. My husband got a button buck last year and boy it is good for the grill. And the best of all MJ and her husband brought us out 2 Bourbon Red poults. These things are the cutest turkeys ever. Thank you MJ for taking the time to bring them out. Hope everyone has had a nice weekend too so far. Now it time to watch the wings.

Daycare mom very cute bun's you just love to squeeze them.

Produck, very nice coop, and i love your pond. you could put those rubber mats that they have for cabinets, around the bars of latter, plus it would help them rip the bar

Hey Rhandi,
I have been lessening to the younger ones, and i think the rouen looking one is a boy, this one hardly makes any nosies, the black and white is more vocal, Chuck and i were setting there, while they were swimming, and I'm sure i heard the B/W one quaking.

though i think were going to have to get them a bigger pool soon, they are trying to swim under water and they don't have much room,

Thank you for them
we are having so much fun with them.

you are so welcome! that pool is plenty of water for them. if you want something deeper, stock tanks with a ramp work well.

tell the girls hello from me. i'm looking for nice blue feathers still and the boots are being held so no more freaking out about green boots!

yes a beautiful day! so pretty in the sun.
got all the inside brooders fed and watered, heading out to do the eleventy coops in the yards.

it sure feels like it early in the morning!

actually there are just four on one hill, four in the paddock and three tractors.

soon there will be two more and the chapel coop. oh and the corn crib and coop. good golly.


i am so excited for you about yours!

I agree with you catray. Finally dry enough to get garden in. Off to the greenhouse to get some veggie plants. But first husband and boys are off to burry the racoon we got in the trap last night. Trap have been out 3 nights and we have already gotten 2 critters.
