Ned is still doing great. Both him and Homer are getting bigger everyday still. I think all summer I’m going to be using them as my lawn mower. They did a lot better of a job and it fills there bellies.

I love the variety of my chickens. This one I personally don’t know to well. It sticks to its little group and is a little skiddish around humans. Super pretty hen though she isn’t laying eggs yet, still to little. But within the next few weeks I’m assuming she’ll start laying.

I love my ducks. Still middle of November playing in the water :) this is my first winter living here it hasn’t snowed like basically at all yet. I hope all winter is like this. Lol it won’t be but maybe it’ll be more mild we’ll see.

This is Zelma. She is the prettiest and sweetest cat I have. She has a very pretty colored nose. She is practically the perfect cat. She doesn’t bug you ever. She sometimes sleeps with you but not overbearing when she does. She has the cutest meow and is always with her boyfriend bart they are a cute duo.

My red chicks I hatched are doing good and some have started roosting up on the roosts. They are getting bigger everyday. I’m excited to see how they’ll look full grown. Should be very pretty red chickens.

This is Theo. He is drogons brother. He is the oldest cat I have. He loves the outside more then inside but comes inside for cuddles and warmth. He’s really good with dogs but doesn’t really like other cats.

My quail are doing good today. They are such cute birds. One of my favorite parts about them is that they sometimes lay two eggs a day. So I usually get a special extra treat every few days.

I love how the goats and ducks hang out together. I think it’s super cute. Marge and Lisa seem to be doing better. They aren’t perfect yet but healing nicely.

My little puppy tuck looked cute when I was doing chores this morning. All the dogs got bones and they ate and watched me get everything taken care of.

I know I’m smiling for the picture but that was before I found out. I only have two girl goats now. Something got in and got one and injured my other two pretty greatly. I’m glad I was able to save two but I’m devastated about the one. It’s one of the worst days you can have on a farm is your hard work and effort for months and months just gets destroyed.

When I was doing chores yesterday my rooster was out again. This time I had mighty protector cuko to help keep the distance. He didn’t try to attack me once. Cuko was a lot better barrier between.
The chicken feeder is still doing well. The chickens still use it and it’s only gotten a little dirty other then that it’s staying together. It’s goat proof which is also very nice so the girls who sometimes get into the chickens side.
I thought you guys might want to see some chickens with Mohawks today :) my ducks in the background are doing good.
Mighty drogon follows me everywhere when doing chores. He does a good job at making my main mean rooster give me space and let me do chores without getting attacked.
I don’t know if you can tell but I think Homer has gotten a lot darker. That black used to be brown. I wonder if he’ll become more darker as he gets even older.
My rooster and protector is doing great. I love him more and more each day for protecting my hens. He doesn’t like me as much as I like him I don’t think. He’s the only rooster that try’s to attack still. Provoked or not.
It’s been a quiet time for the quail. I haven’t had any issues or problems, they all seem to be getting along great, the only thing is the egg production is still down and I think it’ll only get worse.
The only chick that survived from the broody hen is now turning more into an adult hen. She is getting bigger everyday. She fits in both with the youngest chicks and with the older laying hens. She’s right in between for size.
My one girl duck started laying eggs! The Cayuga duck can lay black - white eggs this is a perfect mix. Usually they start black and as the year progresses they get lighter.
I took a walk through the woods and I had a few loyal followers. Drogon and Cindy both followed me my whole walk along with the dogs it was a lot of fun.
Today was a beautiful day. Ned, Homer, and I spent a lot of time together. I love Ned’s little beard.
Drogon is the cat. He is the oldest cat I have. He is pretty awesome.
I’m letting the boy goats mow my lawn for the last time this year. I’m excited to see how good they do.
There are still a lot of colors in the trees. I love how long they are lasting this year.
I was exploring the property yesterday and was thinking of all the things I could do. I have this section that the ground is like sandy and all that grows is weeds so I don’t think it would be good for growing anything or for grazing. If anyone has any ideas on what to do in that space let me know :)
So this is basically the chicken coop. The indoor area that is all theirs. It’s functionally is great, it might not be the prettiest. I’ll get it pretty one day though.
I poked some holes in some of the pumpkins I grew and gave them to the chickens. Excited to see how they turn out. They should eat them and make the holes into a face. The kittens I’m just obsessed with and they are obsessed with me. We spend every second together inside and out they are always with me.

Collecting eggs is probably one of the funnest chores each day. You get a different amount each day and they are sometimes in different places.
The chicks are getting big. They are fitting in nice with the big chickens still. They seemed to be the first to learn how to use the new chicken feeder, so they seem pretty smart.
I made a new chicken feeder today! I’m excited to see how long it lasts. It’s getting colder here so the easier I make chores for in the winter the better.
Today it was sooooo cute! I played like hide and go seek with 5 cats in the tall weeds today. They seemed to love it. I took a picture of Cindy trying to find me, she was a little off but it didn’t take her long to find me.
I picked the last of my garden today. We had our first big frost and freeze last night so it was time.
Today I took cuko to the vet because he’s been acting weird and I didn’t get the best news. He has degenerative myelopathy. It is a disease affecting he spinal cord. Resulting in slowly progressive hind limb weakness and paralysis. He is my first dog. His 10th birthday is October 16th, so he’s getting old. But I didn’t expect that..
My quail seem to have mostly stopped laying already for this winter. Im getting less then a dozen per day out of 60 hens.
I think Rue looks really cute. She is my smallest dog and I think she’ll stay the smallest. Do you like smaller or bigger dogs?
Silver was hanging out with the chickens today. It looked like she was playing with them, all the cats seem to do pretty good with them.
I like the way this rooster looks. He seems to have a very good temperament so I’m excited to see what he’ll bring to the herd.
Tuck wanted to try and come through the fence hole I was fixing. He’s super cute lol, but what he did wasn’t. Last week I came home after meeting someone to sell eggs to, and I come back and rue and tuck are in where the goats and chickens are and they killed over 20 chickens. That was a really big loss. It made me really sad because it was some of my favorite chickens. My big man rooster was fighting them when I came home, so he’ll always be a respected rooster.

In my opinion cats are the best addition to your life. All of mine will come and warm me up whenever I ask. They give me lots of entertainment. They also have provided the best rodent control, I haven’t spotted any rodent getting into any of my animal feed and no signs of it either.

I think keysha wanted my attention. I’ve never once like encouraged her to get up there or go near the four wheeler. So it was so strange when I was doing chores and I look over and she’s just sitting there.
My boy goats are doing good. They are still the sweetest.
I went up north for the last time this year. Fishing as expected wasn’t great but the view was. Still seems like the colors aren’t at their most colorful yet. Still some green, I only wish once the green was gone it wouldn’t take so long to come back.

I saw this video pop up on my Snapchat memories three years ago today I was hanging with my favorite goat in the whole world. I think I was her favorite too.

This is definitely one of my favorite roosters. He’s super nice and he looks funny. He’s an starting to be a main rooster. (The main roosters are the boys who get to get with the mature hens.)
The leaves are just barley starting to change their colors. One of my favorite thing about this state is the way the trees look at the peak of all the fall colors. There’s a lot to do here before it gets cold, and this is the first sign that it’ll be here before I know it.
