It is spring…in case you didn’t know!! The grasses are tall…very tall. The wind is blowing, and the rain is falling…and for obvious reasons, that’s okay!!
With the wind and rain came two more things….well, I don’t think I’d really call them, “things!”
Both look like Buff Orphington / Rhode Island Red mix chicks. I’m hoping to have one that is a true Buff Orphington chick … it would be a Benedict / Claudio baby, my only pure Buff Orphington adults.
With the wind and rain, also came a realization….these little cuties were going to need a little extra heat in their brooder. How was I going to hang a heat lamp with my makeshift design? So I started thinking….a tripod? That could work! I looked around, and my eyes landed on a more stable alternative……
….it works, and I think it is a little more stable than a tripod. Sometimes you have to think outside the box…inside the box.
And so it continues as there are six more eggs to hatch…I expect at least four more, there are two that seemed a little questionable when candled a week and a half ago. Exciting times!!
Thanks for stopping by the farm today. This cool spring day has been full of blessings! I hope you find the blessings of your day too!!
Your friend from Oregon,
