Just picked up feed for the chickens. I’d like for our baseball team to start hitting the ball further. Maybe invite them over for a workout?

Right now it is the “going broke” season. We have many animals that are getting free room, board, and meals. People don’t realize this. Right now we are feeding 5 pigs and they aren’t producing anything jn return in the short term. Also we have 75 chickens and 3 ducks that are still growing that aren’t producing any eggs yet either. But it’s like the kids, it’s truly a pleasure to watch them grow!

I always get excited when the kids want to come do chores with me. Especially Joshua - being 7 years old, he’s becoming more and more of a help. Also we got to see a double rainbow which is always exciting!

This is so true!

Do you ask the cashier for a deal when you go to Walmart?

Do you ask the gas station to give you a deal on your fuel?

The ideology that farmers, ranchers, or homesteaders owe you a deal because you're buying 2 or more of (fill in the blank), is the greatest insult of all time.

Stop normalizing this behavior. 😤

Farmers, Ranchers, and homesteaders are due the same respect when it comes to the pricing of whatever it is they're selling.

I can't tell you how many times we personally experienced this when we farmed and it's the biggest insult ever. It isn't enough a farmer isn't paid fairly, the government taxes farmers to death, and twice on Tuesdays, and little Billy wants a deal.. 😡

Farmers, Ranchers, and homesteaders work tremendously hard, try working 7 days a week, 365 days a year, with zero vacations.

I used to hate Spring. My least favorite season by far. I don’t know if I’m getting old and more nostalgic but these last few years I have began to enjoy it again. There is something about the “start” and “birth” of everything. New animals, new leaves on trees, new plants. All our babies are getting big between the pigs, chickens, and ducks.

Moved some baby chickens outside today! I moved tbem a little earlier then I usually do, but, some are getting real big. Also, they needed more room then there brooder boxes!!

I haven’t had the chance to post as much recently. It isn’t because we haven’t been busy!! We are working hard everyday. We work hard while our animals enjoy the fruits of our labor. The piggies are wasting no time getting big!!!!

Let me tell you about my ride or die! Her name is Lily! She’s the happiest and most loving child I’ve ever been around. She gets so excited to go with daddy to see all our animals daily. If you give her a cup of goldfish, she will sit there quietly while daddy does all his chores. She’s an angel!

After getting so much ready for the pigs the last few days, I’ve neglected packing eggs. Got caught back up today!

I got some good helpers around the homestead. Farmer Joshua and Farmer Grace run a tight ship. The piggies had a great first night in their new home. So far - two of the pigs have names. Grace named her pig Strawberry Blueberry Nasse (we re gonna just call her Strawberry though). The other pigs name is Sausage (take a guess who named that!!! 😂🤣)
