The Old Folks Home

Finally got around to cutting down the fairway this morning. It was almost knee deep but I couldn't get in there until it dried out some.

Raked out the two hoop coops (Chook takeout) and loaded them up with fresh greens then watched the chook mulchers go to work. That makes 3 large pens and two hoop coops supplied with fresh fun.

Finally named Henrietta's last two daughters by Charlie the Cockoo. They are much larger than Henrietta at only 19 weeks. Corona (laying down) and Cerveza (standing).

And I have determined that the black with white penciled feathering is actually Charlotte's daughter (Charlotte is a full sister to Corona and Cerveza) by Bruce. He's the BR or Cockoo son out of one of the Black hens I bought last year.
 
I guess that would be hot.
30 second button on my reactor does the trick! Not too cold not too hot!

In other news: Just ordered my 1 gallon mason jar to put the tea and kombucha starter into. Read all the recipes on line that say to start with already prepared tea + kombucha as the starter, but I followed the recipe on the side of the bottle. allowing the kombucha tea to ferment unhindered for two weeks, then add it to the tea. Got a nice nearly 1/4 inch of scobe growing on top already. Tuesday is when I add it to the tea.

Oh! In case you are wondering, saw this lip balm at TSC and couldn't resist. Grampa says if you put chicken poop on your lips you won't lick them, chapped lips solved.
