Americauna "Easter Egger" chicks are released!

These lovelies are running around with the other chickens now that they have grown big enough.  They are so pretty and cute flocking together around the yard.  I love their "tufted" cheeks!  They will be laying pink/green/blue pastel "easter egg" colored eggs by the spring.

New bunny hutch

Okay, first off - we are not carpenters, obviously!  However, we finally finished the new bunny hutch.  It is a 4-plex and makes it easier to care for them.  The best part is - all recycled material except for about $6 worth of furring strips we bought to complete it.  Not bad for a $6 hutch, right?  We have a bit of painting left (well, the kids do!) and are putting some recycle corrugated plastic on the roof but other than that it is done and perfectly functional if not beautiful!

 This Thunder/Twister/Tornado aka "T".

 Here is Lucy.

 Ruby.

 Clover.

They all seem very happy in their new homes!

Our Daisy girl in the milking stand

Not bad for a first freshener that I was lazy about milking.  :-)

I still have to hobble her, little stinker.  She is perfectly content to hop up there and be milked but if I don't hobble her she will kick up a storm.
