Here’s some pics of the animals today enjoying the warm, dry weather. Also some other pics from the past week and a bit. Milking Lisa our Nubian – SaanenxBoer cross goat is going well and we’ve built a milking stanchion which makes the job a snap. I don’t even have to catch her anymore, just show her the pail and call her to the barn and she comes running! Our pullets have now started to lay eggs which is great! Soon we’ll cull about 6-8 of our older chickens and put them in the freezer and then move all the chickens into their winter coop which I need to build still.
Blue hen egg on the left, small pullet egg on the right. Size comparison.
