Egg or Chicken First? The Chickens Came to this Hobby Farm First!!!

Bought an assortment of day old chicks from the local feed mill hatchery!

Very excited to see how the Dutch Reds, Asst. Bantams, SummerWells and Ring-Necked Quail develop!!

The plan is to only feed them non-processed foods and never chemically feterlized grasses, etc for all natural eggs and meat.

They are going to be 8 weeks old on June 16th!! Just starting to stretch their wings and looking for high perches!

7 week old Ring-Neck Pheasant

More from the chix soon :)

The Hobby Farm Gets Started

I've been wanted to start a composting bin for years and much to my surprise and joy, my supportive parents gave me a starter rotating composter for my birthday!!!

Can't wait to turn my table scraps and yard waste into rich soil!

What will I grow first?
