| Time for a midday nap |
I really love living close to the Earth so to speak. My garden is flourishing
and the chickens are laying. It just doesn't get any better than this. Here's a few, well okay a LOT of pics for you to enjoy!
 |
| Yum can't wait to eat me some corn |
 |
| More beans and radishes |
 |
| Getting ready to cook these up straight from the garden |
 |
| Our wood pile just called for an old timey black and white |
 |
| Chicken coop for the ladies that my husband made, so cute! |
 |
| The ladies' grand entrance |
 |
| Tillie hunts for dinner |
 |
| We mix a variety of feed for the girls and save the table scraps for them as well |
 |
| There's Goldie coming out to greet the day, I hope she left me a present in there |
 |
| Hmmmm...looks like they're saving the eggs til later |
 |
| Here are the lovely gifts our ladies left us, did you know that eggs from the store are already a month old by the time they are put out for sale? Chickens are easy to care for and they give you so much in return. I would encourage everyone to get two or three if your zoning allows. Haha, hubby is in the background with his kneepads on, he's always working on some project. |
 |
| My hubby designed and built the coop, he put a side door in for easy clean out. I use the scrapper to scrap out the poop into the barrel to later be used in compost. |
 |
| Easy access to the nest boxes |
 |
| I can't believe the blooms on the crape myrtles this year. |
 |
| Great old abandoned one room house next to our property |
 |
| We have about 20 pecan trees on the property, last year the drought resulted in zero pecans. This year is going to be a bumper crop. Thank you Lord Jesus. |
 |
| Saved the best pic for last, isn't this the cutest? |
I love all the pictures! I am so happy for you!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love these pictures and this post! My husband and I love the country, and would love to live in it if we could!
ReplyDeleteYour horses are so sweet, and I LOVE chickens! :) My good friend next door has them, and I love their clucking and the occasional eggs we get from them! :) If we stay here, I plan on getting our own chickens. We are actually not part of any city {unincorporated}, so we can have them! {yea!}
Thank you for sharing all of this~ it was so fun to read! :)
Blessings,
Jenni
P.S. I forgot to say how cute I think the hen house is! :) Love the red!
Good for you with your garden and your chickens and living with the earth. I think that's so cool. We finally have a place where we could actually do a garden. I don't know the first thing about it, and AZ is hideously hot, but I'm gonna try. Goodness knows I need to save a buck or 2 on produce.
