Yesterday Around The Farm

Yesterday morning after I let all the critters out I got out my camera and took a few pictures around the farm. It was a beautiful morning and I opened all the windows before it turned hot and muggy.

The meat birds are going in with the rest of the chickens tomorrow. We thought we'd keep them separate but we feel bad because they're not getting the bugs and grass the other young chickens are getting so later today we'll move them over to the 'other side'.

Priscilla and Percy are NOT going to like all the other birds moving into their territory but they'll have to learn to get along.

Just threw the chickens some scraps while they were in the compost pile. The young ones are getting big!

Licorice is Romeo's favorite hen...you can tell by her bare back!

If you look closely you'll see the toad in front of Chelsea

Oh...you can just see the legs on the lower left of the picture as he jumped away.

Smart toad!

Headed out to get the mail. The corn is really growing across the road.

Lizzy came with me

She's watching the dogs pulling up the rear.

She's hiding and getting ready to pounce on Chelsea

Thinkin about making some 'sun tea'

Yellow squash will be ready soon

It won't be long until we're enjoying home grown tomato sandwiches!

Percy and Priscilla near the garden.

Notice Percy's left wing sticking out. We think he may have broken the joint when he was younger. 

It doesn't seem to slow him down any.

All in all it was a good day other than tornado watches and thunder storms.

What kind of a day did you have?
