Chickens

I help my dad with his farm. It’s a cute hobby farm, his grief project, and it keeps him busy. Well today I cleaned out the passage from barn coop to orchard. This was for the 4 big girls. Tomorrow, the 4 ducklings will join them, hopefully going in their enclosure as the sun goes down. Then on Sunday we release the chicklettes, the group of 12 that will be the future layers. Getting them trained so dad can manage on his own. I had wanted to do this before I transitioned back to teaching, but he wasn’t ready.

Tonight the big girls did exactly as they should. Yeah! Step 1 complete!
