Ducklings & Chicks!

Well, our Peking ducklings are now outside in their own space in the barn. They will be enjoying our pasture once it is spring & will have a more permanent home of their own.


Our Christmas Eve chicks have really grown & have their own corner of the barn. They have plenty of room to spread their wings. Once it is spring, they too will be roaming the grounds & enjoying the land.

We want to introduce our new farm resident..."Chickadee". She is a 6 year old black Australorp hen. She no longer lays eggs & needed a new home. She is enjoying overseeing our chicks & being a good "granny hen". We will introduce her to our adult free range chickens in a few weeks, once she is used to her new surroundings.

My Farmhouse Kitchen. We gutted everything out & restored it back to the early 1930's. I love it!
