The Windy Chicken Farm

The Windy Chicken Farm The Windy Chicken is a Veteran owned and operated 5-acre farm that specializes in organically grown and sustainable agriculture.

We also have a small, wonderful menagerie of rescued pets (goats, chickens, pigs, dogs and cats).

Hard to see everyone from this angle/distance, but I am on our back porch eating lunch and can see the chickens, most of the goats, and our neighbors' two rescue horses, Allen and Hope, hanging out right behind. Little Nellie (the donkey) is there too, you just can't see her. Minnie the duck is chilling in the shady run. The pigs are over in the wallow (mud hole) and shade of the barn in the breeze.

And it's in moments like this, that we just have to stop and take a breath and say thank you. Right here, in this photo, is our scrappy little farm dream manifested. It's not fancy, but it's perfect to us.

And for extra magic, the gorgeous giant willow tree was planted by Mandy and her Dad when it was a sprig, around 12 years ago.

Minnie update! Second wheelchair incarnation has suited her well. In the water she can now stand with the support of the water buoyancy, but she hasn't been able to stand continually on dry land
With this helper, she can stand on her own with the support. Next steps in addition to continued hydrotherapy and cuddles and great food, Jimmy's going to tweak the wheelie so she can zoom around on it on smooth surfaces. Can't wait to see that!

There's a new rescue at the Windy Chicken Farm! She came to us in pretty rough shape and we were hopeful, but realistic about her injuries. Not sure if she was born this way or got trampled by her litter mates, but she was SO small for her age and her left wing was atrophied and she couldn't use her back left leg at all, it seems partially paralyzed. Her neck and upper body were severely twisted. She couldn't stand up at all and we had to prop her against a little stuffed bear so she wouldn't fall over when sitting, her legs would just splay every which way.

A little under two weeks later, she is swimming happily in her baby pool with her daily hydrotherapy, we taught the girls exercises to do with her to strengthen her neck muscles and legs, and just yesterday she STOOD on her own for the first time even if briefly. She is now able to sit the majority of time on her own and keep her balance amazingly! She may never be a "typical duck" but we are optimistic she can have a good and pampered life with daily snuggles, treats, and swim time.

Jimmy is even working on a little duck wheelchair made of entirely repurposed material that she can scoot around in supervised for extra leg strengthening!

Eventually when she's strong enough and the time is right we will look into getting a couple of ducklings for companionship (babies so she can be the alpha).

The girls named her Minnie Pickle! Welcome little Minnie to our farm. You already have waddled your way into our hearts!

Something told us you may need a little goat snuggle time and the sounds of hens celebrating their superb egg laying skills.

While we know it's still spooky season, the holidays are nearly upon us! That means, THE GREAT PUMPKIN PICKUP is on for this Saturday, Nov. 1st. If you'd like to participate, just put your pumpkins and/ or jack o lanterns at the end of your driveway for pick up on Saturday morning.
As you know, these pumpkins go to our piggies that live on site and are a great de wormer AND snack! However, we hope you all won't mind removing any candles and toothpicks before pick up.
