What a fantastic week it has been! All kinds of great goings-on, including buds opening on flowers and trees, temps in the eighties, new sponsors and opportunities knocking, justice doing its thing for the good guys and Blaze’s chicks hatching by the dozen! I’ll keep you updated on all of the above in due time.  Please enjoy some of the photos taken in my chicken yard this week and Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms who have done or are doing The most important job in the world, bar none.

The flock celebrates its matriarch, Freida, as Mother Hen of the Year for 6 consecutive years!

Decaf you mean broken coffee
I'm busy turning coffee into awesomeness
She went that way
Wake up and caffeinate

Enter me to win please and thank you. I am currently using a styrofoam incubator and not the best hatch rate for sure.

I found your site a couple days ago and just love it! So much good chicken information here :-) We’ve raised chickens for 14 years – it’s exciting to watch a hen hatch and raise a brood and would be fun to try to hatch our own.
