On the homestead blog: time has no meaning at present, but the all-powerful overlord CAL-N-DAR informs me it is Friday… so time for pictures of chickens and adult ducks. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 29 is “flake” (suggested by kurite). After mealworms, the all-time favorite treat of our chickens are flakes of rice. They love strawberries, too, but ignore those till they’ve eaten all the rice. 📷🍓🍚🐓 #mbaug
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 28 is “emotions” (suggested by @dominikhoecht). Caring for animals like pet and feral cats plus ducks and chickens involves a lot of work and emotions, including joy at their cuteness, and eventually sadness. 📷🐈🦆🐓 #mbaug
On the homestead blog for Flock Friday this week, more sad news, I’m afraid. One of the two Rouen ducks went missing on Sunday night. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 10 is “windows” (suggested by @Miraz). Here are views out two of the custom-built chicken coop windows. 📷 #mbaug
On the homestead blog: welcome to the first Flock Friday with the new ducks. Plus chicken pictures, of course. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
On the homestead blog: some sad news this Flock Friday: a raccoon got into one of our chicken coops, and killed two of our chickens. (Don’t worry, there are no graphic pictures in this post.) #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
