New compartments for our feathered companions.

Hey everyone! It’s been a wild week here on the farm, and I’m excited to share some updates about our feathered friends.

First up, the chicklets! Remember those adorable little guys we were raising? Well, they’ve finally got their own two walkout compartments! It was a long time coming, and we lost a few little ones to the harsh weather. Rain and wind, you’re no match for our chicklets now! We have 7 in total, 4 native chickens and 3 “monster chickens” (they’re just a bit bigger, haha!). They’re all safe and sound now, and I can’t wait to see them grow up.

Speaking of growth, our pabos have a new compartment too! Their mom wasn’t exactly the best at taking care of them, and we lost 8 little ones. We built a second compartment to give them some extra space and hopefully a little more protection. We’re keeping our fingers crossed that this new setup will help them thrive.

It’s been a lot of work, but it’s so rewarding to see our little flock growing and thriving. We’re taking it one week at a time, and we’re excited to see what the future holds for our feathered friends!

What do you think of our new compartments? Do you have any tips for raising chicks? Let me know in the comments!
