Another Day at The Crow's

Well, we got the chicken run attached to the hen house! Yeah no more moving chicks from house to run!!! They can do it on their own now.

 Finally a picture of all 8 together. 

It rained yesterday and the pig pen is a MESS! I haven't been able to get in there to clean it our and it smells so bad. Every time it stops raining I have to give it a day or two to dry but then we get more rain. Tomorrow is the day to get it done.

Last week a cat showed up. We named him, Max. He is VERY friendly to us humans. He doesn't care for my dogs, he really doesn't like the pigs, our (indoor) cat, Mitzy HATES him, but he doesn't mind his backyard buddies the chickens. So I posted on a couple sites for a found cat. If no one claims him then I will keep him as an out door cat. He's a very sweet boy.

Until next time.

Baby Pigs Arrived & Chickens Getting Big!

We got the new baby pigs on May 18th. These ones this year are tiny. So tiny we had to double up on the paneling on the pig pen.

Sausage (Black one I call her baby because she is so small), Brat (Red & Black) & Pig Woman my 9 year old son named her (Black & White, I call her Pig)

The Chickens have grown a lot since the last time Sheila posted. Still don't know if there is males and females. Last night my "Chicken Guy" Luke came over and told me my pretty lady is definitely not a lady. :(

Here is me and Mumba. He doesn't hold still very well. 

Here are some more of the ladies (maybe) lol.

Baby Chickens

 Hi it's me Sheila my mom told me I needed to keep up with this so here I go.Today 7 of the chicks are 1 week & 1 day old one of them is 1 week old. The babies have started to get their real feathers (not down) on a majority of their wings so we can sorta tell what color they might be. During all of this my dad is complaining about the smell!!! So I'll try and post every night about our chicks and (when the time comes) pigs, but NO promises.

  That's all for now type ya later

We have Chickens!!!

Obviously I am not good at keeping up on the blog so I am passing this to my daughter to keep up! 

Good Luck Sheila!
