Good day and Happy St. Patrick's day to you. Sorry about the lack of updates, the last week or so I have been sick with quite the nasty stomach bug. Anyway I am feeling better now and back to work.
Couple of things going down on the farm, this past week. The hubs, DJ (my son) and I have been busy fixing the small barn (I feel like it needs a better name, any suggestions?) and cleaning it out, the previous owners (a landscape supply business) left many nasty things in there and under it all proof that at one time there were farm animals that lived in it. After carting it all to the dumpsters, picking out a few things like crates and leather aprons to keep. We swept and put new plexiglass windows in, and I tell ya it's a whole new world in there. Hubs is building some nesting boxes and a divider wall with some pallets he picked up from his job and some plywood. My hubs is a great man always working so hard to get things done, and I appreciate it. DJ is still working on picking up sticks from a big wind storm a few weeks back. Green is starting to poke up all around from all this unseasonaly warm weather we have been having. Now on to the chicken update, I am sad to say that our little chicken who had been eggbound and was recuperating in the house, had to be put out of her misery I didn't want to do it but she was showing no improvement and seemed only to be getting worse. I tried to put her back with her fellows and they just ended up pecking her bloody, so a quick end was better than being pecked to death, poor gal.
PS: we pick up the new poultry in 2 days.
