among the clouds

April showers seem to be here to stay, making us a big wet mess- but we're adapting.

chicks. I'm not sure what breed they are yet, but those two little ones are growing very slowly.

The Pekin ducklings seems to protect the smaller Rouens constantly, even from my camera

There's been lots of little projects, growth, achievements...

but the biggest step of all... we finally have a greenhouse.

Well spring is definitely here! The trees are blooming, flowers and grass growing. Oh, don't forget the rain. Our first litter of rabbits are growing fast, already out exploring with their mom. The ducks and chicks are quickly outgrowing their brooders. Today we moved the ducks into their new yard pen until we get the coop finished. The chicks are definitely jealous, but their time is coming soon. 

Life is busy busy busy, and it couldn't be better.

Rose and Hopper are enjoying their time together. I think Hopper is quickly becoming a bit of a farm mascot.

bunnies and birds

Today was a very busy day.

duckies are growing so fast

the red pullets are so pretty, and small compared to the white cornish rocks

Our mornings start around seven am, when we tend to the rabbits and birds before we leave for work. We returned home about five o'clock, and thanks to this wonderful spring daylight had plenty of time for projects. We planted nearly all the onions and put together the frame for the poultry tractor.

We just need to buy a whole bunch of chicken wire to finish the poultry house, as well as the rabbit tractor. It was a great day, and each one seems better.

Until next time!
