Hello Friends, Family, and Followers!
This week you get me, LEXI! You know when the kids start writing the posts it’s because we are BUSY. :)

First off welcome to April! We are happy to report that just like in February, March was a record setting month for us at the cabin so we are gearing up for a BIG year given how it has already started. This is a good time to remind all the Kanakuk parents, and past guests to get your bookings in now as the summer days are already starting to fill up.

The past few weeks we have been super busy as we had our Spring Guinea run and are now preparing for our Spring Chicken run this week. In fact the guinea run sold out so fast we have decided to do an additional mid-summer run in early to mid June. If you are looking for Guineas (aka tick eaters) or know someone who is drop us a DM to get on the list. This will be a limited run just to try and fill the overflow from our March offering.

These are also the first runs of keets and chicks to call our new brooder setup home. While we are not sponsored by nor paid to endorse Hatching Time (though I'm sure Mom and Dad wouldn’t be opposed :) ), we absolutely LOVE their products. We have been using their cabinet incubators for a few years now, and this year decided to upgrade from the DIY Brooders to theirs. WOW what a difference and SOOOO easy to maintain.

Fun Fowl Facts: A group of Quail is a covey, a group of Turkey is a rafter, and a group of guineas is a confusion. If you’ve ever had guineas, that one makes total sense as they always run around and squawk like they are confused. LOL! Crazy guineas!

Lastly I will give an update on Dad. He finally got his hard cast off at the end of this week as the Dr. was happy with how things are remaining aligned and healing. He has transitioned to “The Boot” for the next several weeks as he slowly begins putting more and more weight on the leg as it allows.

Be Safe and don’t break a leg…. That one used to be a lot funnier:)

These past 2 weeks have flown by but also have felt like 2 months. Regardless if you’re on a 1/2 acre suburban lot or on hundreds of acres far away from suburbia, every family unit develops a certain routine. Our routine has always aimed to match one’s skills and passions to the tasks that best suit the personality of each family member. Sure we all have things outside of our passion we have to do, but it’s about finding a happy balance.

Since I decided to ”do my own stunts” and “break a leg,” (yes ive heard them ALL and LOVE them😂) our routines have been turned around a bit. Though my skills and passions didn’t break, my physical ability to do many things did. Many of the things I do around the house and farm I’ve had to handoff to others. The worst of these things, for my personality, is to ask for help. Jen and I are blessed with good kids, good family, good friends and good community. Thank you to friends and family for helping with some maintenance items that Jen is not as privy to like unearthing and checking out the wrecked 4-wheeler, looking at a capacitor that’s going bad, helping swap implements on the heavy equipment, etc. We feel well-loved and supported and for that, we are so grateful!

Sure it’s really hard right now, but we are making it. I even sat on the couch yesterday watching Jen through the window use a skid steer to prop up a falling hay bale on one side, then going to use the tractor to spike it from the other direction. Something I would have normally handled, but she stepped in yesterday and handled it like a pro.

Quick leg update: the Dr. wants me in the hard cast for 4 more weeks, making sure to not bear any weight on it. Then we will x-ray and see how everything is healing before deciding the next phase of recovery.

I want to close out with a huge shout out to our Cabin patrons for making February, which is usually “maintenance month”, our most booked February since opening!

Public Service Announcement:

Farms can be dangerous! Whether its a 1,000 pound bull that thinks he’s a puppy or the variety of equipment we use daily to make our chores easier, we must always be on alert.

Yesterday served as a reminder that you don’t have to be “playing around” to have an accident. A simple drive around the rim of our newly dug pond, and a split second distraction out of the corner of the eye resulted in my ATV tipping down the steep bank and rolling into the thankfully waterless pond.

Somehow my brain also made the split second decision to jump and not hang on resulting in the best case of possible scenarios. The ATV still hit me and rolled onto me but considering what could have happened, I am thankful to have escaped with only cuts, bruises, and a broken leg.

To all our Farmer, Rancher and Homesteader followers… Please always keep some sort of reliable communications with you at all times, and be careful… accidents do happen!

We will start off this week with a little disclaimer. We do LOVE and are FREQUENT patrons of a large retailer that is focused around farms and “tractor supplies”. We just cant and wont mention them directly by name. :)

As “Chick Days” come to a close and or are sold out all over the place we are happy to announce that the “Fuller Feather Days“ are just getting started!

As most of our followers know we like to think of ourselves as a small “boutique” farm and thus we don‘t mass produce 1,000’s of animals. We try to focus on quality and establishing that 1:1 connection with our patrons, whether they are seasoned homesteaders or first time enthusiasts.

While we cannot directly “sell” live animals per Facebook rules just know that we are entering our Spring hatching season over the next few weeks. If you and anyone you know is having a hard time finding some feathered friends (currently chicks or guinea keets), drop us a comment or a DM, as we MIGHT just know someone that can help! 🤓

It’s been a little over a year since Sarge was promoted to our Guardian Angel Dog, and while we always knew we would get a dog again we didn't plan on when or try to rush it. We always said when the time was right, we would know it. Last week, it happened… the right situation, the right time, and the right puppy. They say a picture is worth a thousand words so we will let them speak for themselves. Cassie “Chaos” is a Cane Corso/ Great Pyrenees mix and is ready to be the new guardian of the Fuller Farm! 😍

Not totally unexpected… it is a farm of course, but it isn’t pouring rain, or below zero outside, so that’s a nice surprise!

Welcome the newest baby girl to the cattle collection. Her and momma are doing great and required no help from us. Given that spot on her forehead, we wonder if she was a unicorn in a previous life. :)

Like this post if you think she’s cute!

Hello WeTheFullers Followers! As you all know there’s absolute chaos on the farm as usual. While there is a lot that happens on the farm that we cannot foresee, there are a few things that are predictable. We can predict that the goats and cows will come when we shake a feed bucket or when they see the tractor full of hay. We can predict when we will have baby goats aka “kids.” They are always born during the absolute worst weather, although they are supposed to be able to decide when is the best time to have them within about 4-5 days. But, instead of waiting on good weather, it never fails that they wait until the peak of the snowstorm, the coldest day of the year, or the day that we are having storms with a possibility of tornadoes. This always tickles me as it is in their typical mischievous nature. As usual, we presently have plenty of goats available, including babies which can leave at 12 weeks of age at the earliest. If you are interested in one or ten, please contact us. Here are a few of our handsome gentlemen that are looking for a new home.

Hello everyone! This is Lexi for your first post and Christian’s post is next on this “Kids Snowed in” edition.

As the snow rolls in there’s lots of prep on the farm that needs to be done. Despite all the work, when the snow finally comes, the fun rolls in with it! When the cold first came I was really curious how it would go for the new goats. It’s their first snow and the second snow for the cows. The goats were kicked out of the barn for Mater (the bull) to sleep in and so the goats went under the dog trot. Seeing them all come out of there is funny - like a clown car - they just keep coming! The goats and cows have been out and about when it was sunny and have been enjoying the snow. Our two barn cats Storm and Shadow are doing great despite the cold. We brought a box out for them and within a few minutes Shadow hopped on in and was swishing his tail. Storm attempted to hunt a Cardinal but was unsuccessful in his hunt. We’ve kept them well fed and nice and cozy. While it was really cold and we were stuck inside we were able to watch a few movies and we played “Uno” as well. Alright CJ’s turn!

Hey, it’s me, Christian. Before the snow started I was sad because we missed out on it on Christmas. And when the weather gets like this it also comes with a lot more work. We get to “work hard and play harder.” But once a little bit of snow started falling I was so happy because I knew snow = snow ice cream and that stuff is literally to die for!!! When the snow first began to fall, I noticed a few birds that stood out in stark contrast to the snow. First off BIG BARRY!!! I called him that because he looked like a big cardinal. Big Barry was eating cat food when one of our barn cats, Shadow, crept up behind him and lunged. Sadly, he missed his gigantic feast for lunch-fast (halfway between breakfast and lunch). After that, Big Barry didn’t keep hanging around. Then I saw a lazy, couch potato bird. He must have thought “Oh I see Big Barry getting swatted away by cats - it will take too much energy to move, so I’ll just stay here in the tree.” And that’s exactly what he did most of the day. So, I called him TREE TERRY! I hope you all have a great snow-in time watching movies, throwing snow balls, and just having a good time!

From our family to yours, "Y’all stay warm and stay safe as you unearth from the storm!"

Friends, Family and Followers…. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ok, it’s a few days after the new year, but we thought we’d give everyone a few days to settle in to 2026!

Busy close to the year for us with kids out of school, friends and family stopping in for visits, a few last minute cabin bookings, and closing out year end duties as we set our goals and plans for 2026. For this week we wanted to look back and highlight our family’s top 5 from 2025!

1. HUGE Home Remodel
2. Hosted our 1st Wedding Party on the Farm
3. Lexi got some answers and we are on our way to managing her condition
4. Christian discovered his new favorite food in New Orleans…Chargrilled Oysters
5. Chris’ selfless plug… :) 5 Years Cancer Free!

Honorable Mention: Between business and pleasure we survived a total of 25 trips for at least 1 of us out of region, for at least 1 night or more. WOW!

Stay warm, stay safe and here’s to an even better 2026!

2 Weeks in a row, it doesn’t make it a habit but its getting closer… :)

This is the monthly episode that we focus on something regarding animal husbandry. Interesting facts about one of our many breeds, issues we run into and need help or just lessons learned in the raising and caring for our beloved farm animals. This post is actually a bit of a “Help Wanted”.

To set the stage our primary pasture is a wooden Kentucky 4 board that we added high tensile electric lines to the inside of to primarily deter predators from coming in as well as prevent the cows from leaning on it and the goats from trying to escape. Due to the appropriately named “Stone County” our ground can be very rocky in places and thus we opted to no only do grounding rods around the entire parameter but we setup Hot and Cold alternating wires for the lower end.

Now to the issue. Several months back one of our OG “Original Goat” moms had 4 kids. She has always been a 4-5 kid mom which is amazing, however the drawback is her kids are usually very tiny. The littlest of the little ones “Petrie”learned early that he could sneak under the lowest electric line which was a cold line. Petrie continued to sneak under so we decided to make it a hot line long enough to train him to stop trying, or so we thought.

Here we are several months later and he enjoys being out roaming the property so much he still wiggles himself under the line, and takes the zap from the fence. You can hear it get him but it’s like it doesn’t bother him now, he doesn’t even flinch. The rest of the herd looks at him like he’s crazy. For any of you long time electric fence users, have you ever seen an animal become “conditioned” to the shock, and if so what next?

With only 3 days until Christmas, Safe Shopping!
