Hippy Moe’s Homestead

I’ve lost to many animals the past couple of weeks😢part of farm life. But I did find a great home for 2 of my goat babies and sold them to a wonderful couple. My pup ran off tonight and the wonderful community I live in found and and I got him home safely ❤️ there is a difference with farm animals and my dog. If I would have lost my pup forever it would have broke my heart. I lost 2 of my Muscovy ducks and my turkey this past week. I’m sad that are gone but I have to find the silver linings. My Nubian does are off to new pastures and my dog made it home! Happy birthday month. The universe knew I needed my pup to make it home safely and through social media, he was found. There’s a lot of negatives to this platform but positives as well.

My dog killed one of my ducks playing with it. While I was inside getting dinner ready. He’s been with these birds for a while and we haven’t had any issues. I caught him right after it happened so the duck is still fresh. We don’t let things go to waste, so now I’m processing a duck tonight 🤦🏼‍♀️ these were for breeding, not eating so I’m a little bummed. I still have one male and female and as long as nothing happens to them, I should still be able to hatch some ducklings in the spring.

The Muscovy chicks aren’t chicks anymore! They are getting so big! I will turn them loose in the goat pasture soon with the geese!

From a pi**ed off farmer:

A polite-ish notice to all cyclists on country roads during harvest.
Please understand I have zero issues with you using the roads to ride your bicycle, I’m all for exercising and if slipping in to a lycra suit and impaling your self on a dick shaped bike seat for hours keeps you satisfied then each to their own. If I’m driving a car I always give plenty of ‘safe space’ when passing cyclists which is only fair, we know how sensitive you are to your requested road space, you have just as much right to the roads as anyone....
HOWEVER, if I’m coming at you in a fu***ng great tractor with 20 tons behind me on a single track road, do me and yourself a favour and STOP for one second, either move as far over to your side of the road or just step on to the verge if there is one, so I can pass safely, do not just continue at full speed and then p**s and moan as you go past because if it goes wrong you’ll end up being pressure washed off a tractor wheel. Unfortunately for you we take all your space and we can’t help it, so unless you want to lend a hand either changing a tyre that’s blown out or shovelling up a spillage, then we’re not dropping our wheels into drainage grips so that you can continue your bicycle ride. Cars, horse riders and runners are capable of it, I seem to be missing something with cyclists, I presume either you don’t want to get your special bike dirty, you’re trying to beat your PB or more than likely you’re just a complete c**k in general.
Regards your Road Safety Advocate for the 3 shires

Not so much to post about farm/homesteading life except that I miss it. I miss it like a piece of my soul is vacant. Empty. Lost. I’m doing what I can to stay connected with what lights my souls on fire, but it’s tough. I have wonderful friends that are helping through this season of my life and keeping me sane. I have as many animals as I can in this apartment. But I still miss the grind. The daily animal check and chores. The garden success and failures. The dirt. I’m not sure how long this season will last…I do hope it’s short.
