Just call me a hole digger, burying person

July 30, 2011

I feel as though death has taken up permanent residence in our home…. In the past 6 months I’ve had more deaths than in the past 6 years; 2 grandparents, 1 pregnancy, 1 dog, 1 kitten, several chickens, tons of chicks and lots of fish. Just this week 3 deaths (1 chicken, 1 kitten, 1 [...]

Best buds- Cricket and Chloe

January 20, 2011

It’s been a little while since I have posted about best friends Cricket and Chloe.  It’s also been awhile since they’ve both been asleep in my house.  They have been outside pets until the weather was cold and we felt sorry for them, bathed them and let them in out of the cold.  By cold, [...]

Little Blue Piper

January 19, 2011

In our household chicks come and go, lots of them.  The boys have had quite the experience with them, you might remember this and this. But this little chick hatched all by herself, no little chickie bubbas or sissies.  So of course she was a little spoiled. We named her Piper, (I was watching too [...]

Hopeful Broodies

November 18, 2010

I realized the other day it’s been quite some time since my last chicken post, and I know how everyone just adores these posts.  At least I think everyone loves my chickens posts? I can imagine can’t I? I like to introduce you to my two “hopeful broodies”.  Broody is the term that means a [...]

The Watermelon Chickens

June 30, 2010

It’s Hot!  Really, Really, hot. So much so that, my poor chickens, walk around with their beaks open and wings spread out, just hoping for a cool breeze. That never comes. So as a treat I cut the ends off of a watermelon and stuck them in the freezer for about an hour.  Then I [...]

The Chicken Wrangler

April 20, 2010

New skills are developing on “the farm”.  The art of Chicken Wrangling has taken hold in Little H’s heart. His victim, Sally.  While she doesn’t seem to mind being held for long periods of time I can’t help but laugh (and be proud) at his enthusiasm.  My love of animals has passed down to my [...]

Summer Garden week 2

April 16, 2010

We had two little helpers in the garden this week. DT was busy taking the planter covers off the tomatoes and Little H and Little W had decided to remove all the lady bugs from our potato plants.  I tried to explain they were good bugs, but they just wanted to play with them. The [...]

Tales from the Coop

April 13, 2010

Last week I did a tales from the crib post so I thought I would do one from the chicken coop.  Cribs and Coops that about sums up my life lately.  I spend lots of time cleaning each. As I’ve might have mentioned before chickens are such curious, funny, little personalities, they like to be [...]

Just call me the Chicken Lady

March 6, 2010

Well it looks like I have a bit of a problem.  DT and I went to the local farmer’s co-op yesterday.  To get chicken and dog feed, only.  Well they had a bin full of new little chickies!!!  And not just plain on Ameracauna’s (like we got last week) they had buff orpington’s and silver [...]

Playing with Camera Settings

February 10, 2010

I was playing around with my setting’s on my camera the other day and skeeter was my perfect subject.  See Pioneer Woman gave a great tutorial about what the different setting on your camera do like the A & S.  I had no clue, but I am loving the results.  I mostly shot my pictures [...]
