Today was the day!!! Time to put the new headlock/chute to the test! The soon to be mommas and the bull needed their vaccines! As you can see Tara Iannacone and I rocked it!! Oakley had to figure out how to move his horns to make it through but with a little patience he made it through and was such a great boy! He even tolerated a little manscaping for his upcoming breeding season! 😁 Big shout to Tara for always being willing to come help, no matter what the task! I know she loves my babies as much as me! 💕

🐦 Meet Our Barn Swallow Family at The Noren Family Farm

Did you know some of our hardest-working farm helpers have feathers?

These beautiful Barn Swallows chose The Noren Family Farm as their nursery this spring, building their mud-and-straw nest high in our barn and raising a new generation of chicks.

Fun Barn Swallow Facts:

🐦 Barn swallows return to the same nesting areas year after year.

🐦 Both mom and dad help build the nest, incubate eggs, and feed the babies.

🐦 A single swallow family can eat hundreds of flying insects every day, helping naturally reduce flies and mosquitoes around the farm.

🐦 Baby swallows stay in the nest for about 3 weeks before taking their first flight.

🐦 Their nests are built from hundreds of tiny mud pellets mixed with grass and straw—an incredible feat of engineering for such a small bird!

In these photos, you can see the proud parents perched nearby keeping watch, while their nearly-grown babies wait patiently in the nest. Before long, they’ll be taking their first flights around the farm.

We love sharing our farm with all kinds of animals—whether they have hooves, wool, feathers, or fur. ❤️
Have you ever had barn swallows nest in your barn or porch?
