It’s been quiet around here lately.  The girls were gone for most of the week at church camp.

I missed the girls, but I think the dogs missed them more!  Jess tried to entertain them…

We ordered 5 jumbo Pekin and 5 white Pekin ducklings and they arrived on Wednesday.  Here is a short video of getting them settled in the brooder.

The ranger broilers are doing great!  They are not quite big enough to go out and free range yet, so they’ve been getting lots of grass clippings and other goodies from the garden and kitchen.

The girls came home from camp, and now they are concentrating on getting all their animals ready for the fair.
