Egg production is ramping up! Aren't they beautiful?

I'd buy it if it were near me. I've bought just the rabbit poop before because I don't have rabbits and it's the best fertilizer. Congrats on the new business!

10 quarts of lard rendered and 11 suet blocks for the chickens.

Thanks for this idea. I'm going to be making some suet blocks next time I have fat to render.

The girls seem to be doing alright with the cold today. I recently put these old dresser shelves in so they had a little more protection from the wind. #grownostr #chickens

I love that idea of repurposing those drawers. Perfect! I'm going to have to try that.

The Premier1 heated waterers are my absolute favorite for the winter. If it's anywhere I can run an extension cord, you can bet I've got one going! Saves me having to constantly change out water in these freezing temps and they shut off automatically when the temp rises.

Quail cam footage from inside the coop! Zero degrees out and a few are feeling spicy this morning.

Our chickens love mealworms.

Mine too, I'm trying to grow my own in plastic totes!

Cold weather treats for the quail! Black soldier fly larvae, which are high fat, and coarse grind corn. Corn is high carb so it heats the birds up as they metabolize it. Works for chickens too!

Good morning nostr, and happy Friday. After my coffee, I should be ready to tackle this busy day. Besides the usual animal chores, today we'll be spending time prepping everything for the cold weather coming in. The wind has been very blustery lately, i can hear it gusting pretty loudly right now. I always worry about the animals in very cold weather, but they always seem to come through just fine.

We have bnb guests checking in at the cabin today, but these folks have been here multiple times and are familiar with everything. All i have to do over there is start heating it up before the cold starts.

Anyway, yall have a great day nostr friends, and remember that today is a gift. #coffeechain #grownostr #homesteading #bnbstr

We had the winds a couple days ago and now the temps are dropping even more! Snow coming also. Hope you and your animals stay safe and warm through the cold.

Female quail have a lovely cricket-like call and this one likes to sing just before dawn. Sound on to enjoy!

Ten degrees out this morning! Here's a peek inside the enclosed part of one of my cages where everybody is snug in their straw.
