Compost help

We took the food scraps from the winter, mixed in dirt and aerated before putting it all back in the bucket.  We didn't have a lot of scraps between the dog & chickens!

Spring!


 We let the girls out throughout the winter, but they sure are loving the fresh grass and bugs!

Winterized Coop






We moved the coop before the first snow fall and added a run for them to have more room to range and dust themselves since their free ranging time was decreased.  Straw was added to insulate and so was durable plastic to protect them from the elements.

All items for expansion were recycled/reused materials!

Fresh Eggs!



Hello everyone!

It's been awhile but our Pullets have been doing great! They've been laying since they were 5 months old and we've identified who is laying which eggs.  It's been so much fun!
