Processing Day

Posted by: Maddy
Yesterday we were busy processing 75 chickens! It was an all day event considering how long it took to set up the equipment, figuring out the different stations, and it was a pretty cool day. We have had lots of practice with other people's chickens but we never had to set things up before, so it took awhile this time. The hard work paid off and now we have 3 refrigerators full of chicken! It was a long family project.

 Isn't Mom pretty?

We also got some cows this week as well...

Memories From March

Hello all! We're back again! Man, what a busy month! Several birthdays, fun events, farm life, and everyday happenings! Shall we begin? This month literally started out with Norah turning 11! Here's just a few of her birthday photos!  This year, Norah requested a doughnut cake! Two doughnuts a person! Let's just say we all felt horrible that night. Loading more pigs up  Isaiah still doesn't know what to think of the sheep Izzy and Mr. Grumpy Gills  Katherine started riding a two-wheeler bike, with a little help from the training wheels! She could totally be a model!  Chick season has come around the corner...again! This will always be a favorite!  They make for good pets...when they're little anyway!  When you don't have a tractor and you need to seed the fields...  ...and chop broom grass down When Mom's not putting the food in your mouth fast enough  Meet the new bull calf, Demitri! ...
