Chicken Yard Additions:)

I absolutely LOVE spending time with all of my "critters." I added some neat things to the chicken yard yesterday. I added some vines/branches above the LGD's window on their house, a couple of roosting bars, and a climbing rack that also gives some protection to lettuce, cabbage, and newly planted beans:). The chickens love fresh veggies, so planting them in their yard is the easiest and cheapest way to give them what they love:)!!!

Fun in the Chicken Yard:)...

I had FUN in the chicken play-yard today:). These old candle holders/plastic cups are now clover holders for the chickens:). The chicks absolutely LOVE their sand-yard, and I had a BLAST making the penny ladder. They can climb, roost, and eat until their little hearts desire!!!

"Easter Egg" hunt:)

2 guinea eggs found during our daily "easter egg" hunt. Generally we find the eggs in the coop, near the coop, in the barn, or in the barnyard or woods behind the barn. TODAY, we found the eggs in the ditches beside our driveway while cutting grass. Fun times on the farm!!!

Guinea Hens for Dinner

Dinner plans changed. Someone hit 2 of our guinea hens on the road and drove up to tell us, thankfully. Still warm so not wasting the meat. Heart breaking bc these were pets and insect eaters. But... Can't control where free range birds go. Bummer!
