My very first ginger bug is finally ready, so I'm trying out ginger ale. Wish me luck! Hopefully the fermentation subreddit has prepared me well, haha.π€π #fermentation
Springtime. ππ±ππ

Fermenting veg for the first time! I want to get this figured out before gardening season gets too busy. Hoping for yummy results that are good for my gut too! π€π₯π±

I made the mistake of showing this to my 10 year old, and now she is begging for a Serama of her own.
When the rehabbing house chicken decides she wants to try laying eggs again you improvise. In a pinch, a basket + pillows + a blanket = a nest box.

The author of the pattern (linked) has released it for free to bring more awareness to the situation and encourages people to make a donation toward charities who support immigrants and refugees.
She has been rehabbing in the house for over a month, and I think it's safe to say she has fully acclimated to house chicken status. ππ§Ά

Justice for Liam and all the other kiddos, family members and neighbors who have been, and still are being detained and terrorized!

The inspector agrees - my garlic will survive the snow. π±π #vegetablegardening #southeasterngardening #backyardchickens
No kidding! Planted mine at the same time and was shocked when I realized I can't harvest until June/July. I won't be planting parsnips or carrots this spring because the garlic is taking up so much of my space. π
I'm growing garlic for the first time (zone 8b) and am a bit nervous about the snow we are getting later today. I did a bit of research and decided to pile on some more straw rather than cover it. Hoping for the best. π€π±π¨οΈ

This is terrible! Do we know if it extends to Medicaid as well? I've seen conflicting reports.

Nice! This guy is my first roo, and I've only had him for 3 mo. I've researched a ton, but am still learning new things.
Does anyone else's flock have a hype man? Just mine?
My girls always egg song for each other, but a roo?!? (Sound on)

Living the dream! π
My π Curd running out to see his ladies every morning. π π©· He is such a a sweet boy! #backyardchickens #silkie #rooster
Hey chicken people, what is he saying?
Is it, "Hey ladies, I found the best spot ever! Come check it out." Or am I misunderstanding?

I think this goes back to James Comey.
Decided to search for some washable nest pads after several broken soft shelled eggs. I was excited to find these cloth mats online (yay less plastic), but hold up, they looked just like an old bath mat I had, and I can sew. Voila: new nest pads!!! ππͺ‘β»οΈπ

The sweetest boy joined our family today! Curd is a 6 mo. old silkie, and he will be joining our flock of seven hens. Shhh! π€« The ladies don't know yet.
We've only had him a few hours, but he is the most adorable cuddle bug, and already snuggling with my daughter. π

Sneaky thieving chickens. ππ± At least there is enough lettuce to go around. #backyardchickens #chickens #vegetablegardening
I initially read that last bit as "I guess it's all God unless it's about money." Hmm. Either way I suppose it tracks.
The weekend harvest! The strawberries are hard to keep up with and a couple of the potato grow bags were ready. It's my first season growing carrots. This climate is better suited for a fall crop, but at least I got some cute baby π₯s. I hope I have better results in the fall. π±ππ₯π« #gardening
This is Mousse, and that is one of her eggs. And it makes me giggle to know she is the only source of Mousse π« eggs around. π π #backyardchickens #mooseeggsforbreakfast
Thanking my ladybug army this Earth Day! I'm so glad they think aphids are yummy. ππ±π
