This week was busy as I worked on finishing up two magazine articles, but it was a bit of a challenge with one of my girls (human child, that is) home sick. She’s fine, but I’m a little bit behind. Such is the life of a self-employed, work-from-home mom. :)
The feathered babies worked on getting bigger and with unusually mild temperatures for November in New England, they got to spend quite a bit of time outside, learning the foraging ropes from their moms.
Iris (Olive Egger hen) and the Littles (Black Copper Marans or Olive Egger chicks) enjoy the mild temps as papa Blaze keeps a close eye on the yard.
This week’s unpredictable weather provided ample opportunities for some colorful photos.

I am almost out of cartons so I really need these
I'm hoping to have some new ladies very soon, so might as well stock up if I win!
Always fun stuff here. :) I can always use more Egg Cartons.
Thank you for posting the best photos! So inspirational! I am looking forward to giving my farm eggs away to friends in those darling egg cartons! I posted a message to the Egg Carton Store to say the Chicken Chick sent me!
My 16 spring chickens just started laying on Thursday (2 eggs Thurs., 1yesterday, 6 today)! This would be the perfect time to win this prize! By the way, the info on your blog about when to expect the first egg was dead on. It says to expect an egg within a week of seeing the "submissive squat". 6 days after the squatting began…egg city! Thank you for all of the practical information you share.
