Easter this weekend and picked up 30 new day old chicks to pick up the slack in the coop come the summer. A variety of 3 breeds to give us the different coloured eggs our customers love.

I am 2 days old today and normally Mom and I would be headed outside to join the aunties and cousins, but the weather is nasty, so the people are giving us a 3rd day in the maternity pen inside the barn. I have lots of guard dogs sleeping nearby too!!

Another cold January -20C day, but Poppie doesn't seem to mind, still joyfully running at full speed around the yard while I was bedding their shelter for the night. When the tail goes up, you know it will be a flat out sprint. Before I took the video, she came tearing up to see what I was doing, but before I could pet her, she smirked and took off again!

First calf of 2026 turned 1 week old today. Poppie is our first calf sired by Kaboom, amazing genetics, an easy birth, up quickly and nursing. Expecting a half sibling this week for her to play with, until then she will continue to visit and play with her "aunties".

Beaver and Otter continue to tease dogs, popping up through their breathing holes, getting dogs all excited, then back down to pop up a different hole in a few minutes.

Another relaxing fall day for the bulls, chewing their cuds under the oak trees.

Although it is a hot day for us, the bees love the heat, saw a pair of them on Julie's marigolds, collecting nectar for more delicious honey production.
