Just a day around our little farm. So much to do this time of year and always new challenges. Batbaby the Marans cross chicken has hurt her foot somehow which led to the others picking on her. While she heals we have her separated but still within sight of the flock by day so they stay used to each other. Batbaby was previously one of our most skittish birds but now she seems to love the extra attention.
All of a sudden the fruit trees and bushes are starting to blossom and fruit. Baby fruit is really kinda cute. Hope we get a good crop of fruit this year.
One of the young chicks, now 2 months old. This crop of chicks is doing very well. They should be laying in the early fall.
Vegetable gardens are pretty close to being all planted now.
More baby fruit...
And more gardens.
KitKat of course is around to help. These bean teepees are far away from the chickens and ducks area, hope they don't find this garden!
More baby chick photo opps. It's hard to get a picture of the Tolbunt Polish Frizzle bird's face, she has too much hair (feathers!)!
Little silkie getting big too, I still can't believe we ended up with two more hatchery quality little black silkies (they were supposed to be Marans) Oh Well!
And this is why I'm not going to have a bean teepee in this spot anymore!
And a couple of the ducks just chillin' on a hot afternoon.
