How many chicks has she hatched?
Does this mean you are finally able to get home?


Good Sunday Morning and Evening Everyone!

No not home yet apparently she was not going to show the cheeps. She's sitting on 4 eggs

Oh, but guess what? I have a new ko shamo cock coming that I am excited about! He is Splash wheaten, the first one I have had. I plan to put him with two wheaten hens to have all blue wheaten chicks out of them.

This is him:

Sorry for not writing anything here yesterday (Sunday), we had to process about 30lbs of harvested onions, purple, white, yellow and sweet-yellow.
Clean them, cut off the greens, peel the bulbs clean, dice them and pack them into freezer bags.
It was a very tearful task…

From the west:

And finally from the south:

It is basically a large pile of hay with a cave in the middle. I want to cover the hay with some wood-chips at the bottom to seal of any drafts and then put some straw inside.
