Actual footage of what it’s been like completing chicken chores with all this rain.

Anyone have an ETA on that arc being done alongside I68? For now I guess we will keep practicing walking 2 by 2….

While we anxiously await some of these new babies to hatch..
Check out some of the gorgeous eggs our girls have been giving us this week! 💕
I’d say they are pretty happy with their refreshed home!

For anyone looking to add in a little extra care to your dust baths for your ladies I HIGHLY recommend Pampered Chicken Mama!

Our girls feathers have never been so healthy and shiny! They love it! Even our girls who lacked in the area of ✨ self care ✨ are obsessed and this is now a staple we will continue keeping around. Cleaner, happier, healthier, organic AND smells great?! That’s a win for us!

I’ll post our dust bath components in the comments below for anyone interested! 😊

“Sky plots her revenge… but will she rise again, or remain beneath Sylvia’s shadow?”

Tune in next week to find out…✨

Best sign of happy chickens? Egg collections that look like ✨THIS!✨😍

Ohhh the excitement when your daily egg collections look like this!😍

My “laying flock” bring us just as much joy as our silkie flocks do!

Every bird in every group has been carefully researched and sought out to ensure that the table eggs we provide are just as HEALTHY as they are BEAUTIFUL!🤩

They are spoiled and loved on, fed trustworthy organic food and raised with true care! And call me bragging but I do feel like it shows when this is SOME of what they gave me JUST TODAY! ❤️

(P.S. look at those stunning speckled green Silverrudd/Isbar eggs!)

Spring has sprung and we are working on digging out ALLLLLL of the old sand in the coop and run and trying a new system.

First we dug everything out level. Then trenched down and out for added safety which we then filled with steel wool followed by concrete along all sides.

Now that everything else has been dug completely out we are laying large cement pavers down (with no joint lines, hammered together for a tight seem) over our gravel and sand base. This will cover the entire run and coop base which also had hardware cloth skirting around the perimeter.

After the pavers we are back filling with sand for their substrate.

All removable items have been taken out and pressure washed. And all feathered friends will be getting their spring spa treatments as we breathe life back into the coop after a very cold and snowy winter.

All this to say, give us a couple days turn around time on messages. We have been a bit busy! 😂

Hoping to finish up the major parts this weekend so we can get some eggs set in the incubator next week!

*picture of what my spoiled chickens will be looking like probably while we slave away for them*

💕UPDATE: THESE BABIES ARE CLAIMED AND OFF TO THEIR LOVING HOMES💕

Okay everyone, I got a little excited about all the babies I had been hatching and kept a few too many. Now I have to thin out the flock a little because once again I have a brooder full of chicks in my house. 🤣 I could have worse addictions right?

SOOOOOO these two beautiful babes are 👀 for their forever 🏡

Would make a wonderful breeding pair. 1 splash hen and 1 blue rooster. No visible flaws and already very bonded. Rooster is attempting to do his thing already.

Hatched in December so will soon be laying.

PM us for more details!

The photo really does not show off her beautiful subtle mauve coloring pattern.

But we are SO excited about our girl, “Sunny” that we hatched out from OUR LINE! 🥰

She will start laying soon and just continuing to become more and more beautiful as she matures! ✨

!NFS!
