Surviving Minnesota!

Thanks, @duluthralphie ! DH is gonna be bummed not to get the geese out of the garage just yet, but this will still make him feel better... until the next lot get here. I’ve told him about them several (many) times, but he’ll still be shocked and dismayed (only partly feigned) when they show up.

So... do the geese and the chickens need gradual introduction or when the geese are properly feathered up, can I safely just toss them into the same paddock with chickens and turkeys?
When I had geese, I tried to keep them on their own area...

They refused and joined the other birds daily. I gave up on keeping them separately..

They did not seem happy until they made every watered and feeder on the place a stinking slimy gooey mess.
 
Eew... nice. I believe you. I have float valve cup waterers and plan to feed 1x to 2x a day once everyone is out on pasture. The geese can have a lidded bucket with noggin-sized holes in to dip their noses. I realize they’re still messy but I gotta try, right?

If you say so.……

Did my first mowing of the season . Cloudy and a high near 80 today . Chance of rain late in the day . High of 60 tomorrow . :idunno

I hope to be mowing by the middle of July..




I see on the morel map you have them now!




I spent my day fixing the hydrant in the coop. I now have running water. I am so happy and of course a genius to be able to fix it...

It will make life easier for my slaves, when they get here with their "Meals" or Moms...
