Getting a Head Start on Spring.

     Getting the ground for the garden area broken up. This is where the ducks have been living since fall. So there should be plenty of fertilizer in the ground.   We cleaned out about 4 or 5 wheel barrel loads of rabbit poop and put out there also.
     There will be a path going to the barn and hopefully this will be a better garden than last year.  The ducks and chickens will be in back of the barn. Brent will be plowing this up several more times before spring getting it all broke up and turned over several more times.






     After Brent was finished plowing the ducks and chickens scratched and poked around and then just went to sleep. The Guineas yelled at Brent the whole time he was plowing .





     We shoveled several loads of rabbit poop to take outside before Brent plowed.  Afterwards while I was putting down fresh straw I had a little help. Miss Trampas decided to help.  We also let the chickens in to scratch it around and help get it undone a little more.




     This picture is the small flock house.  Guess they thought they just needed to get all their business taken care of  at one time. Some days we get 9 to 10 eggs from this group of hens.  Altogether we are getting 13 to 14 eggs a day now from the chickens and 8-9 eggs from the ducks.   The bottom pic. is from this morning.




BamBam Holsters is branching out.  He is making Cell Phone holders and I am making Koozies.




Until next week,
The 2 Moore's Ranch

  1. What are you going to plant in your garden this year? Looks like the chickens and ducks were having a blast on the plowed ground.
