Wings And A Prayer Farm But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matt 6:33 I was willing to go wherever He led. Mr.

In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Prov 3:6

A few years back, I was questioning where God wanted me and was in earnest prayer over it. During this time, my husband bought some chickens for eggs, and I started in a new line of work. I wasn't really feeling the "chicken thing" at first and my husband would always say "Babe, I'll make a chicken farmer out of you yet." I

was still struggling in my search for where God wanted me, facing health issues which took me out of work for months at a time, learning more about chickens and before you know it, here I am - a chicken "farmer". I use the " marks because I still have TONS to learn. God does not always hit us in the head right away with an answer, He sometimes does a slow reveal - to train us along the way so when the job is ready, we are ready for the job. A lot has changed over the years since we started this page as Coddled Chickens. Coddled (Paul) and I discuss a lot of the details of the "farm" even though he says he's just a hired hand. We have built & rebuilt; bred & lost; reevaluated and started again; and always have to remember that this is still God's place and His creation. We have to follow His guidance. We are excited to see where He leads next. Stay tuned.

Boy is it HOT 🔥 out there. It took me 2 hours to pull everything, wash, prep, cover things for easier clean next time, and get everything back in. The turkey was a solo survivor and has been with chicks since he was 3 weeks old. So, he thinks he's a chicken.

We keep a 5 gallon bucket by the bitty coop for wet/dirty shavings. For some reason Mr Coddled put an empty bowl on top of the shavings. I picked up the bowl and found some chicken treats! There are soldier fly larvae all in the bucket. So, I dumped out the shavings and went through them. I pulled out the biggest and left the smaller ones to develop further. The bitties were introduced to SFL and one of the older bottles took one and ran. The rest went to the coops out back.

I have 5 cats and my friend has 3. For health reasons some had to go on the raw diet. But we make it for all of them. They are doing so much better.
I had a lady ask in a local group if anyone could supply her with chicks for her cat, I believe it's a Bengal. I did the math also let her know I could provide them for a lower price than her supplier.
Batch q is just about ready for dispatch, batch 2 just hatched, and batch 3 is in the incubator.
Speaking of incubators: I purchased 2 new ones. I incubate in one and lockdown in the other. This method allows me to stagger batches if necessary, and I only have to clean one incubator after each hatch, with a quick clean up on the larger incubator.
These are the incubators I bought. I love them both. I will put links in the comments.

We have had all of these scenarios over the years. I am thankful for our regulars who understand backyard flocks.

Our girls are laying well. After packing 5 dozen for orders, and taking out 2½ dozen of 'too dirty' ones for cat food, I have another 8+ dozen. This is all two weeks.
I have a friend who's favorite color is pink. She was amazed when I told her all the different colors that eggs come in. So I packaged her a pink & blue dozen, with 2 of our other colors.

I know I am not as active as I once was on this page. We are still here.
Momma Coddled needed full time care starting April 2020, went into hospice in September 2022, and went home to be with the Lord on March 6, 2023. I am still trying to readjust my schedule and time. It has proven more difficult than I thought.
I did start a part-time, work-from-home job in August 2022, which was a Gjd send, and perfect for taking care of Momma Coddled as I basically set my own hours in the evening. So if she needed me I was here for her.
I did receive a lot of help from some wonderful people who loved Momma Coddled just as much as I did. Knowing this gave her much comfort at the end of her life.
I've also had some remodeling issues here at our home since Sept of last year, and that has had me distracted just a TAD.
We have scaled back quite a bit due to all that is going on. We still have our regulars who get eating eggs from us.l, and have added a few new customers. We also have the occasional sale of chicks, ducklings and a goose here and there.
I apologize for the lack of updates, and will attempt to post more to keep all of our followers up on what is happening here.
We had to move our fence line away from the house since the chickens and dirt were causing problems with our AC. All the grass has now grown back and we have a little bit of a back yard.
Oh, we have the beginnings of a pond. That is the next addition to our "farm".
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and have amazing plans for the Christmas season.
