    Hi Chics!! We have been away for a while and staying quite busy. It's springtime so there will be chicks and ducklings soon. I'm itching to start my incubators. If you are in the market for chicks or ducklings leave me a comment and I'll get with you to discuss details.

    I am in the process of setting up several websites so I can share my love of watercolor with you. I'll share the links below. Please bookmark them and check back so you can watch my progress. Leave me a comment below about what types of paintings you'd like to see available for purchase. And what kind of product would you like to see them on? So far I've got mugs, journals, stickers, cards, and a poster. 

    TC is still building wood stuff. He's so talented. He has some great customers that reach out with jobs pretty often. He is planning  to branch out into some bigger projects so stay tuned and I'll tell you what he's up to when he is ready. Meanwhile, he's got some really cute chicnack tables for sale. Comment below and I'll have him reach out with prices and delivery information.

    We really appreciate any help you can offer as we get back to building our little side hustles. If you have a small business you want us to help market, drop us a comment below and I'll get a blog out soon with your info. 

    Til' next time...have a great day, Chics!

To Fodder or Not to Fodder

Good morning, Chics! We've had some great weather lately. The gardens are growing quickly and the chickens have started laying again. Maybe it's the rain or maybe it's because we went back to feeding them dry food. Whatever the case, we're happy.  I thought I would share about fodder today. Late last summer my husband decided he was going to grow fodder for the chickens over the winter. Maybe you are asking the same question I did, "What in the world is fodder??" I received a lengthy answer.  Here's the definition given by www.attainable-sustainable.net: "Fodder is a mat of sprouted seeds that can be used to feed a variety of livestock and small animals, including chickens."  Sounds simple enough. Water some seeds and give the chickens the sprouts, right? Well, yes, but there was a lot more to consider. First, we needed some trays to grow the sprouts. Second, we needed a shelf of some sort to hold said trays. Third, we needed to install grow ligh...

Where Is Spring?

 Good morning, Chics! How are you handling this weather? Is it cold where you live? Our weather is all over the place and I'm tired of it. Just a few weeks ago I was outside in a tank top for two days in a row. I got an amazing tan. And then we were right back to temperatures that dipped into the 20s at times.  We've got several things in the works for this week. The weather seems to be ready to level out. But first! Yesterday our big puppies turned one year old. They are such great dogs. Here's a picture of the dogs patiently waiting on the birthday cake. Tomorrow I plan to get some things planted including: potatoes, onions, asparagus, and greens. My husband got sand for our coops yesterday so we can hopefully move the babies into their new coop today or tomorrow. This weekend we will do a full cleanout of the big coop. We picked out paint colors and I'm realizing I need to add "paint the new coop" to my to-do list. My husband decided we need to fence off pa...

The Babies Arrived Healthy!!

Good morning, Chics! A little after 7a.m. I received a call from the post office letting me know it was time to pick up the baby chicks. I love walking into the post office and hearing those sweet chirps! We welcomed them to Oklahoma in below-freezing weather. I'm pretty sure they were laughing at us because it's probably far colder in Wisconsin.  They were very animated on the way home and so ready to get out of that little box. All fifteen female chicks were taken out one by one and looked over for any obvious signs of distress or illness. I put their little beaks in the water to teach them to drink and let them down into their new home.  We will do very little with them for the first twenty-four hours because the little babies were just born on Wednesday, stuck into a box, and mailed to a new home; that's enough stress for a few days! We have a baby monitor in their brooder (thanks, Sis) so we can keep an eye on them from any room in the house. I can't seem to keep m...
