Well, the time had finally come. I wasn’t really ready for what was about to transpire. Yoohoo was looking a little different to me. I was concerned and called the breeder, Karen. She didn’t know exactly what to make of it but she did have several ideas. Later I went [...]

Well, the chicks were supposed to hatch on friday. I had a very hard time achieving enough humidity. I was able to boost it a little and for a short time with small jars of boiling water to produce steam. I dreaded emptying the incubator so I put it off until after [...]

This is the best dog.
I have two roosters who are soon to leave this farm. My most pretty rooster, Adonis, has turned bad. He has taken to attacking the boys and this morning he went after me. Wonder Dog Bullet stepped in and saved my life. He started going after Adonis to [...]

Joe and Mike were at the farm Saturday fixing my brooding pen. With eggs in the incubator I needed to get moving on the pen in the barn so we didn’t have them in the garage.
This is so cool because it is adaptable. There is a panel on the side closest to the [...]
