The Old Folks Home

Our yard is all decorated. I think it looks really nice, especially since our neighbors don't do much decorating. The youngest grand is nuts about Pinkie Pie. They had an inflatable with blower, and light in it, as an outdoor Christmas decoration. That's our addition for this year. Pinkie Pie is standing next to the outdoor Christmas trees. The youngest was so happy.

The inside tree is up, and the grands will be helping to decorate it shortly. Christmas tree decorating requires hot cocoa.

Oops, I was wrong. Dh shaped a star, and is putting lights on it, to put above the chicken coop.

Interesting you all suplement food as I was raised to do that with spare vegies or mealworms style treat. Dad raised maggots, grossed me out but fed them like treats..
I use mealworms just as gross but hey dead bought in huge bags now.
I get lots of comments how great my eggs are

I read about raising worms and I think it would be interesting... But I'm afraid my husband might toss me in to them if I try such!

Growing my own would be much cheaper then buying them and I'd be my chickens favorite person with home grown wiggly worms!

I have been busy, still getting ready for winter! Luckily it has been fairly mild here. At the same time, I have been trying to spruce up coops, hutches and brooders. The quail cages are being changed into brooders. Some will be added together to make coops for bantams. Still setting up my 5 gallon water buckets with horizontal nipples, and putting aquarium heaters in them. I have thermostat cubes that turn the heaters on when it's cold.
The latest chicks I bought are bantam polish!
