We sure are enjoying the benefits of being on the farm...
|
The girls (hens) need to provide a couple more large ones to complete 3 dozen... |
|
That one will do! |
|
As will that one! |
|
.... hmmm, that one looks more like a medium.... |
|
Some of the bounty in our kitchen from the farm - eggs, fresh butter, fresh milk -- yum! |
An update from a couple of days ago - I had posted about the chickens (
https://journeyinamazinggrace.blogspot.com/2020/05/chickens.html) and showed the elderly Lavender Orpinton -- it turned out that she passed away just a couple of days later.
In that post too, I had taken a picture of one that I thought was the Chocolate Orpinton, but it was an Ameraucana.

The "fluffy" one in the middle of this picture is the Chocolate Orpington. |
Finally, the bulls were moved to the pasture that is right behind the house (and beside where our motorhomes are parked), so we've started getting to know them...
|
Duke was up close to the yard so Carl got his picture taken with him... |
|
... and gave him a scratch on the head as a thank you... carefully staying on the other side of the fence from Duke... |
Duke seems to be reasonably friendly (though not quite as much as Henry that some of my earliest readers may remember meeting:
