Zombie horde! My youngest quail that are outside are so incredibly friendly but it's a swarm as soon as I open the door!

An ode to the aesthetic post. A day late--second rather--and a tenth of a penny short. I caught her trying to lay an egg and thought I'd add it to my "Feed the Chickens With Me" reel.

But no. I tried to get a better view and missed the whole stinking thing.

I am a sucker for white birds but am loving this piebald (that's what I'm calling it) and am hoping for more! I have hatched 3 whites so far out of my 2 coops and have more hatching in 21 days!

(Looking for more white quail. Monrovia, IN)

WE ARE SAVING MONEY TODAY.

I'm assuming new customers but I logged in on my old account I havent used since 2021?! Turn on that AutoShip and pair it with the promo code and I basically got a BOGO for a $25 bag of feed!

We got the Kalambach Feeds All Natural 5-Grain Premium Scratch and a bag of Nutrena Naturewise Egg Producer 21% Protein Layer Pellet.

I FOUND YOU.

After hunting to find your elusive nesting spot--20 minutes, multiple cow pies, getting stuck on the barbed wire multiple times, thinking about the children in the corn, and getting the hem of my dress soaked in poo--I FOUND YOU.

Just had to look above the door to your coop. Unacceptable.

We have been busy and mildly neglecting the garden but the rabbit p**p has fully fertilized the tomatoes and they're out of CONTROL. Tomatoes are everywhere and our friendly orb spiders so I'm constantly playing tag with their webs. I can't wait for salsa though!

Sideshow Bob on the way home with me from recovery. The resident rooster had picked the chick in the back and possibly broke a leg so we will see how it ends!

May I eat in peace? Any time I bring food out, they think it's for them. Hungry beggars!
