Sad to say due to circumstances regarding the girls, we will not be at tomorrowas Alice Farmers Market. 😢 Production has slowed but we are still getting eggs, only half the amount we've been getting normally 🙃 we well be taking personal orders though! If egg orders are not filled, we will begin a list, but we currently have 8 dozens, please feel free to reach out should you need any eggs!

It's been a big day! Some good and some bad..

So, around 830am our newest layer Peep started honking by my bedroom window to let me know she paid rent and I found her little nest! 3 days she's been laying! How eggciting 😂😂

Now the bad. This little girl has a bad case of wry neck, which is a symptom of vitiman deficiency 😢 she's a trooper though! She chowed down on some yolk and honey mix I made her and drank some water, which tells me she's a fighter, but lord to I hate to see any animal in pain. Little RyRy here I hope will pull through, so until she's back to normal, extra love, extra care, extra snackies 💕

New layer alert!!

Our little Peep is growing up! Yes, I know it's broken, but it's gotta be her first egg, considering it's a new color and I walked out on her singing the egg song!

Some new layers will eat their own eggs, usually they don't, but it's possible she didn't know it was happening and p**f! The gals free-range and new layers often need to be shown where to go 😂 Either way, it's exciting to see a new shade of shell from the gals!

Mumbles new name is gonna be Hobbles 🤣😭 my poor booboo

Why is it always you, Mumbles??

On sick chicken duty! A possible strained leg 😢 so looks like Mumbles is a house chicken until further notice while her leg heals up, but she got to go to Tractor Supply and get feed for the others, and some new meds to help with whatever else is running through the flock right now. So she's been a good chicken today, and no bites

Molting chickens benefit from a bit of extra protein in their diet to help them grow in new feathers. These peanut butter seed treats fit the bill.

Be sure to thaw that turkey!

We're having a small Thanksgiving as we're expecting a new family member to make their arrival! Can't wait to meet our little turkey nephew!

Thanksgiving (US) is coming up quick! If you have a turkey in the freezer you're planning to cook, take note of how many days it will take to thaw in the fridge ♥

Chicks really get me to love them so much when I try not to get attached by doing the cutest little things. This bear has been around since we got Link, may he RIP, and the other chicks. And now this new little flock gets to cuddle up to it too. I love all my babies, no matter how much they cost me 😩

Godo morning!

All I can think about is adding new chicks to my flock 😭 considering ordering some, but also will wait until Chick Days at Tractor Supply.. decisions, decisions!

What are your favorite breeds? I'd love to add Olive, chocolate brown, or green egg layers to my group!
