Hey :)

Sorry about that... with the nice weather, and well, lots of other excuses, I haven't made time for blogging :)

But, we have the ducks out!!! Yesterday we spent almost the whole day working on the hut, getting it ready!!! And, we did it! :)

We have had 197 eggs so far this month! YEA! We've given away more than half of them, but we found some people that really want to buy them. Without advertising, we could sell them all, no problem. So we've ordered some more to make up for our losses. (I actually finally got the order in last night--so May 19th is the expected date!) This is crazy, as it will be our third set of chickens in the past 12 months.

The goats are so approachable, now, and are unsure of the ducks. The broilers will be out of the way in plenty of time for the new chicks, so do you know what that means??? OUR HOME IS NO LONGER (OR EVER AGAIN GOING TO BE) A BROODER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! so that's cool.

This picture is from, well not today or yesterday... see, the chicks are in a kennel in with the adult chickens as of sometime earlier this week. If you'll look closely, you'll see that one of our Khaki Campbells decided it wanted the chick's food. Must be one of Eric's :)
