All the young ones wanted to come out and help Bob with the new chicken tractor. Lurkey decided that she was going to be Bob's right hand lady.

At least somebody, or should I say somebodies, enjoy the rain.

Shorty (our Blue Copper Maran) was feeling a bit lazy today. Typically you get fairy eggs in younger hens. Size comparison to what she normally lays.

The geese crew minus Mana who is broody and sitting on some unfertilized goose eggs and fertilized guinea eggs. Guess she is going to play momma to some guineas.

Adventures from the farm today. Took all the turkey out for the first time today. Lurkey, the bigger turkey, has been the only one out before today. Even though Lurkey is bigger, he is still in the brooder box and plays daddy to all the other baby turkey, chickens, duck and guinea we have in the box. He did not move out to the outdoor grow out pen with the geese because they are ornery and like to pull feathers and we don’t like Lurkey bald.
Observations…
1. Geese love babies no matter what kind of bird.
2. Baby geese are interested in other babies but want to touch them (i.e. grab them with their mouths; that is how they feel).
3. Lurkey looks after his little crew and finds bugs for them and corrals them.
4. The cats like to sit back watch over all the birds.
5. The ducks will follow the bigger birds they are raised with.
6. Ducks aren’t as bad as I thought. Actually, they are so stinkin’ adorable!
7. My guinea raised with my big geese like to come over and watch the littles also.
