Ducklings update

They are growing like weeds!










They have adopted Penelope as their mama, or at least their flock mate.

Woo Hoo . . . spring is here

I have been busy with other things and I have not been posting. Shame on me. I have some tomatoes started, I will buy some early girls and better boys later.

I started getting the site ready. I moved the tarp and the weeds are really bad. I don't want to mow back there as there is wood and rocks that are hard to see. So I am using an alternative mowing method.

Unfortunately they like all animals, quick changes in their diet is not good for their tummy so they each went out in pairs for 30 min. I'll do the same thing tomorrow and hopefully for the rest of the week I can get this area trimmed down. I have to put the bales out by May 1 so I can water for 10 days before I start planting. Planting date here is Wisconsin is usually May 15.
