Autumn is upon us… I love it
I love fall. If I had to pick a favorite season I would choose fall. It is the season hubby and I were married in, it has great weather for my boots, jeans and a vest, its not too rainy, its not too hot or too cold, and its the beginning of the good food season… hot apple cider, soups, stews, roasts, and all sorts of … Read More Autumn is upon us… I love it

Chickens and Snow
We have had more snow the past couple of days and I have been trying to keep up with the animals. There are some things I have learned about chicken keeping in the snow, so I thought I would share some of them. You may know some (or all) of them, but maybe you will learn something new 🙂 1. Chickens don’t like to … Read More Chickens and Snow

New Bed and an Update

I especially love watching their late afternoon naps where the sun is shinning thought the window and the rays fall on them… Its nice to see … Read More New Bed and an Update
Chicken sick… poor girl
We have a sick chicken. I tried what the feed store lady suggested and only minimal improvement. The poor girl 😦 About a week ago I noticed her crown had slumped over and she was not as peppy. When I picked her up she was skinny and when I watched her I noticed her potty was runny. The feed store lady suggested goat dewormer and … Read More Chicken sick… poor girl

Here came the sun… and now rain…
We finally had a beautiful day last Monday. It was sunny, got up to 60*, and the wind had finally calmed. The warmer air and sun dried up a little of the flood of rain and snow we had for the week before that. We went out finally to run some errands and were amazed at the flooded fields, streams, and properties we came across. … Read More Here came the sun… and now rain…
