It snowed on Friday, it was sloppy and muddy on Saturday, and today, even though there was one less hour, it was 70+ degrees and sunny! The tractor got fired up and the final push to form the raised beds and get the drippers plumbed has begun!
There is a whole lotta fen-hucking going on these days. We are getting 2 dozen eggs a day and the roosters want em all to be fertile. As a result, the hens can get bare back. The “chicken saddles” as they are called, help to keep the chance for infection down and allows the feathers to grow back.
