Seasons at Procter Farm

The new chicks, golden comet pullets, have moved into the winter housing in the corn crib. Here they are eating overwintered spinach from the greenhouse. They need to be kept separate from the adults until they are the same size or they'll get bullied too much. The two flocks will be combined in the fall when the adults move back into winter housing.

All the barred plymouth rock hens and rooster have moved out of winter housing and out onto pasture. They are so happy!

The new eggmobile, complete with 26 nest boxes. Its actually an old trailer. The wheels make it convenient to move.
