Changes and Additions


I'm trying to do a better job of keeping up with posts.
This is a quick update.
Our six Khaki Campbells are growing like weeds and we plan to move them outside soon.
So far only one of them is definitely quacking. Which means it's a hen.
We're hoping more start quacking as we don't want too many drakes.



As if we don't have enough animals as it is, we got six guineas.
We've been talking about it for a while.
We don't know that much about guineas.
We got French Pearl guineas. The babies are called keets.
We do know two things: 1. They are excellent alarms. 2. They are tick eating machines.
Should be quite an adventure.



Our mature duck hens have kicked it in high gear in the egg laying department.
We're getting about 10 eggs a day.
So thankful for our duck egg customers!



I recently ended my employment with the school.
The kitchen ladies had a farewell lunch for me.
It was sweet of them.

Monday I start my new full-time job.
I'll be in the drafting department of a large structural steel manufacturer.
I haven't been in the drafting field in 14 years!

Our blog posts may be sporadic until we get into a new routine with the new job.
The main reason for lack of posts is because I'm trying really hard to finish a quilt by the end of May.
It's hard to hand quilt when you're gone all day. I use all my spare time quilting.

So that's a quick update in our neck of the woods.
