I don't think Abrah-ram appreciates our Halloween decorations.

Chickens are a gateway drug....meet Little Horetta, Jeff the pig and Wilbur. That is all.

As the nights close in on us faster we have added a light for egg pickup after work hours. We hope this helps with the egg buying experience.

Our chicken girls are molting and because of that we thought we would offer duck egg half dozens for the price of a dozen chicken eggs. Duck eggs are huge and rich and delicious. We had some delightful duck deviled eggs today. We are putting half dozen duck egg containers (labeled) in the cooler for 3 dollars for a limited time. This is the the time to try duck eggs. There will still be chicken eggs out there as long as they can keep up eith the demand. Please remember to recycle egg containers.

We have gorgeous duck eggs for sale. They are a half dozen for $5. Duck eggs contain more iron, selenium, and vitamins A, B6, and E than chicken eggs. They also have 9 grams of protein vs 7 in a chicken egg. Duck eggs are far more delicious, rich, luscious and creamy.

Did you know Dake Boys got ducks?! We have Khaki Campbell (all named Jake) and some Cayugi. One of our Jake's is broody and we finally found her nest🤣🤣. We are selling eating Duck eggs (none are broody Jakes) half dozen for $5. Let us know if you need some yummy duck eggs.

Dake Boys Birds has made their first little egg stand. They helped dad build it and then painted it themselves. (And we used stuff we found on our property to build it). Inside the stand is a refrigerated case with washed eggs inside. There is a locked money box for self pay. It's all self serve. Swing into our circle drive put in your money, open the case and grab your eggs. These are beautiful heirloom eggs.

New life on our little farm thanks to this momma Anna, and the day after loss by our sheep Elsa. It is heartbreaking watching Elsa mourn the loss of her first baby. We left the little one with her for a bit so she could see that she was not going to wake up. She nudges her and cries and cries. Her sheep friends and family have gathered around her and cried along side her. This is loss in a sheep. Human loss is so much harder and deeper. Remember that when you place timelines on someone's loss. The sheep know to surround her and grieve alongside her, we as human can do better.
"But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope. The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to an end, they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. The Lord is my portion says my soul, therefore I will hope in Him" Lamentations 3:21-24

Introducing the midnight puffin. We finally came up with the name for this cross breed we "made". They are cold tolerant, fibrillation and should lay well even in the cold months. Aren't they beautiful? We have a few chick's available right now and more to come.

We have peaches and apples growing in our little orchard. We are so excited.

05/03/2024

We caught one of the baby's and her momma was kind enough to let us have some snuggles. Finn has named her Spot.

04/06/2024

We had our first farm baby today. The tail wagging is the cutest. Baby is nursing and is just the sweetest little thing. We believe this lamb is a boy (it's what we do🤣.)

Love that these Silver Ameraucana have turned out so beautiful! Chicks coming soon.

We had our first farm baby today. The tail wagging is the cutest. Baby is nursing and is just the sweetest little thing. We believe this lamb is a boy (it's what we do🤣.)

We spent this beautiful evening trying to halter train the sheep. Kristoff doesn't care what we do. Elsa is food motivated (same girl) but laid down when we started walking🤣 and Anna is apprehensive about all aspects of life. They are super sweet and we are praying for babies this June!

Ewe wouldn't believe what the Dake farm has now...meet Kristoff, Anna and Elsa. Anna is clearly the one trying to fight our cocker spaniel and protect everyone🤣. These are Shetland sheep. The females are full grown and Kristoff will get a little bigger as he is only around 6 months old. They are known for their soft, non itchy wool, docile behavior and charming disposition. Kristoff wags his tail when snuggled and pet. They are extremely weather hardy and don't really require shelter; the cold never bothered them anyway as they are used to the harsh winters Scotland weather can bring. Bringing them home was quite the adventure. Anna is every bit the personality we named her after and was stubborn as could be. She took off when we opened the trailer and it took us 3ish hours to wrangle them. Kristoff patiently waited for his ladies. We feel like we are officially farmers now and that someone needs to learn to rope and fast🤣🤣🤣

Tested out the new to us square baler.

Our Swedish Black Hens or Svart hona chickens started laying. This extremely rare breed is cousin to the Ayam Cemani. They have many advantages over the Ayam Cemani. They are cold weather tolerant and lay 250 eggs a year, laying into the winter. They are also less flighty and more socialable than your average chicken.

Axel candling some turkey eggs. 😁

Finn talking about his new Bantam Black Ameraucana chicks. They are actually Self-blue/Black Splits!!! So chicks will be Black and some Self-blue. So thankful to get these chicks for award winning lines of Tracy Buck. They are actually part of the group trying to get Self-blue recognized by the APA.

Axel kept saying, I hear chicks? Where are the chicks? I don't see the chicks! Then we showed him with a light in the small windows of the incubator. This is our first hatch in the hatchtime incubator. #hatchtime #chickens #dakeboysbirds

It is always very exciting everytime chicks hatch. These are especially exciting. They are an ultra rare breed called Svart Hona or Swedish Black Hens. They are an all black breed related to the popular Ayam Cemani. This breed lays in cold weather and lays more eggs than it's cousin; so we are very excited to be adding this breed to our family.
