Why Mulberries?

Delicious Fruits: Mulberries are like nature’s candy! These juicy gems drop from the tree, providing a sweet treat for your feathered friends and four-legged companions. Chickens will be scratching around like they’ve hit the jackpot, while goats will munch on the leaves like they’re at an all-you-can-eat buffet!

Health Benefits: Not only are mulberries tasty, but they’re also packed with nutrients. They’re rich in vitamins C and K, iron, and antioxidants. So, while your chickens are pecking away, they’re also getting a health boost. Talk about a win-win!

Goat Gourmet: Goats are notorious for their discerning palates, and mulberry leaves are a hit! They’ll munch on them like they’re the finest salad in town. Plus, the prunings from your tree can be a delightful addition to their diet. Who knew goats could be such foodies?

Planting Tips

Location, Location, Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Mulberries love to bask in the sun, just like your chickens love to strut around!

Water Wisely: While mulberries are drought-tolerant, they appreciate a good drink during dry spells. Just don’t drown them—no one likes a soggy tree!

Patience is a Virtue: It takes a few years for your mulberry tree to start producing fruit, but trust us, the wait is worth it. Your chickens and goats will thank you with happy clucks and bleats!

Cluck, Cluck, Hooray! Freshmen and Fowl in the Mansion

February 4, 2025 by admin

Welcome, dear readers, to the grand spectacle of life where chickens, pabos and freshmen
collide in a delightful dance of chaos! Picture this: a stately bamboo mansion, once the abode of the big white dignitary, now bustling with the sounds of peeping chicks and the excited chatter of wide-eyed newcomers.

The Great Pabo Hatch-Off

First up, let’s talk about our feathered friends. Did you know that a chicklet can take up to 24 hours to fully hatch? That’s right! It’s like the ultimate slow reveal, but instead of a dramatic entrance, you get a fluffy ball of yellow fluff. Here’s how it goes down:

Egg-citing Beginnings: The eggs are nestled under their cozy Pabo hen, turning them daily like they’re on a spa retreat.
Peep Show: After about 21 days, the little ones start to peep, encouraging their still-snoozing siblings to join the party.
Hatch Day: Finally, the moment arrives! Out pops a chick, ready to take on the world—or at least the enclosure.

Freshmen Take the Mansion

Now, let’s not forget our new freshmen! They’ve arrived at the mansion, probably thinking they’re stepping into a scene from a gothic novel. Instead, they find themselves in a lively hub of activity, where the only ghosts are the ones in their eaten friends.

Exploration Time: Freshmen are given the grand tour, complete with tales of the mansion’s history and maybe a few ghost stories to keep things interesting.
Towering Ambitions: They scamper up to the tower for a view that’s more breathtaking than their first midterm exam results.

Making Friends: Just like our chicks, they’re hatching new friendships, peeping out for their next adventure.

The Clucking Conclusion

So, whether you’re a chick breaking free from your shell or a freshman breaking into the world of higher education, remember: life is all about new beginnings. Embrace the chaos, enjoy the peeps, and don’t forget to have a little fun along the way! After all, in this mansion, it’s not just about the history—it’s about the stories we create, one hatch and one friendship at a time! 🐣🎉

Now, what’s your favorite part of this delightful chaos?
