Woke up to new babies. ❤️ American Bresse from 8:28 Farms in Conover . 5 eggs developed out of 12. 2 have hatched, 1 has zipped and waiting on 2 more.
I am excited to have this dual purpose breed for the first time. These chicks will be kept as egg layers to hopefully hatch out meat birds in the future.

The garden is officially put to rest for the winter now. It is covered with 6” of mulch. This mulch will decompose over time adding nutrients and reduce weed growth.
Breakfast time and a quick fence repair!! Always pay attention. I am constantly listening for the clicking of the electric fence and if a pig touches the wire with no reaction, I know something is wrong. #forestraisedpork #electricfenceissues
Pumpkins are healthy and enriching !!
Ducks
Our free range ducks are such a pleasure to watch.

Honored to have the opportunity to donate a pig to feed those in Western NC after Hurricane Helene. Thank you Blueridge Processing for organizing and facilitating this.
I have 2 more just like her if anyone would like to buy them. I will discount them to just cover my costs only and I will deliver them.

How I wash eggs. I put the eggs in a large bowl and fill with water. I used to use a toothbrush (works great), now I use a Scrub Daddy Sponge. The eggs sit in the water while I’m washing and it softens the dirt and poo. I start with the cleaner eggs and let the dirtier ones soak longer. Easy Peasy! #pastureraisedeggs #farmlife
