If you've ever been near a chick in distress, you know the siren-like chirp they use when they are unhappy, scared, in danger, cold, etc.

So I'm sitting in my office, trying to wrap it up and I hear this piercing chirping. And I think nahhhh one of the babies surely didn't wiggle through a hole and escape the run.

Wrong.

At least Louise was keeping an eye on her. Guess we will put some temp fencing around the bottom of the run. 🤪

Meet two of our Mottled Houdans! Here’s some fun facts about these girls:

🐥 Originally from west Paris, France, a town called Houdan.

🐥 In the 1850s they made it to Britain and in the 1867, they were shown in Worcester, Massachusetts.

🐥 They have a fifth toe on each foot.

🐥 Each time they molt, their feathers grow back whiter.

🐥 They’re known for their calm and friendly demeanor.

🐥 Unlike other large chicken breeds, Houdans are not prone to infectious diseases.

The babies moved out to the big chicken house today. We flipped the brooders and are ready for the next shipment of spring chicks in about six weeks.

‘Tis the (allergy) season 🤧 We’ve got another batch of elderberry syrup brewing and the kitchen smells wonderful. Here’s more on why we love it:

💪 Immune support: Elderberries are rich in antioxidants and vitamins that may help support the immune system, potentially reducing the duration and severity of colds and flu.

💪 Anti-inflammatory properties: Some studies suggest that elderberries may have anti-inflammatory effects, which could help alleviate symptoms of certain conditions like arthritis.

💪 Antioxidant effects: Elderberries contain flavonoids, which are powerful antioxidants that may help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.

💪 Respiratory health: Elderberry syrup is often used to relieve symptoms of respiratory infections, such as coughs, sore throats, and sinus congestion.

💪 Heart health: The antioxidants in elderberries may also contribute to cardiovascular health by reducing the risk of heart disease and promoting healthy circulation.

💪 Cold and flu relief: Elderberry syrup is commonly used as a natural remedy for colds and flu due to its immune-boosting properties.

💪 Tastes great: it’s made with organic elderberries, organic keylon cinnamon, organic cloves and local wildflower honey.

It may not look like a lot right now, but after a few rises and a few days in the fridge, it will be the best (healthiest) pizza dough you've ever tasted! 🍕

Last week, the first shipment of Spring chicks arrived at the farm, featuring Mottled Houdans, Silver Polish, and Golden Polish. Despite their small size, they are full of energy and sweet. Really glad they can live in the garage, I bought too many to keep in the guest room this year. 🤪

Farmhouse breakfast all star 🍳 Eggs in a Basket

Homemade bread from freshly milled flour makes the best “basket” for a farm fresh egg. I’ll eat it with a side of molasses to drag the toasted bread through. 🤤

Do you call these eggs in a basket?

Really grateful that the temps are starting to warm up, even if it does mean rain. This ice has got to go!
