*Broody Hen Alert*
We’re looking at mid-60’s tomorrow, so I’ll be ‘playing outside’ all day. Yay!
Ellendra knows all about broody hens...
I, on the other hand, am making myself stay OUT of Farm & Fleet and Tractor Supply. I fall in LOVE with those little balls of fluff this time of year. Bigly.
Chickens will be mine, once again, in the future. That, and a mini milk cow.
THEN, my life will be complete. ;)
I try to stop in Tractor supply once a year to see the baby ducks. Nothing cuter in the world than a baby duck. If you want a mini milk cow are you looking at Dexter cattle?
My garden is swampy but in the raised bed, I found some turnip plants I had covered with straw and they are doing great.
I think next year, instead of harvesting them all early and watching them shrivel up and dry out, I will try mulching them and harvesting them as needed. It would be interesting to see how those work out.
