Our power went out today for 2 hours while we were out! It's so lucky that it happened today and not yesterday when some of the chicks were still hatching and hadn't dried yet. They were pretty cold in the basement and they had all huddled together but they seem fine now. Their brooder has been moved upstairs so that at least if that happens again, it will be warmer upstairs near the fireplace!
Dog, dog, dog, chicks!
The chicks just after I rushed them upstairs to warm up. Poor lil' guys!
The reason we'd been out was to get some fittings for the irrigation. We started on that today:
Bed in front has rye as a cover crop that we'll till in in the spring. The bed with straw has garlic in it, the one next to that is empty and the greenhouse has baby greens and kale.
Chickens were very jealous of the ducks getting fed. I was practicing their recall back to their pen.
Male vs. female size comparison!
Victoria, Dee-dee in front, Rosie in the back.
I accidentally caught a little...err...yeah... in the background.
Ryan says he'd prefer to hang out with the chickens, thank you very much!
Abby does what Abby wants!
