We're just finishing up a weekend of camping, family fun and loads of beer. It was great!
Saturday morning I picked up 20 17 week-old pullets from Meyer Hatchery up in Polk. They are Black Stars which are hybrid brown egg layers. So far we've gotten three little pullet eggs.
Sugar is well settled in her new home. Last night she had a mucus string hanging from her vulva which indicates a matter of days until freshening. We're doing our hand exercises over here in preparation. Meanwhile, she's grazing like crazy which is very nice because we have a huge surplus of grass and the butchers are coming next week to take 4 yearling lambs.
The garden is not done but should be by the end of the month. That's pretty good for us.
