Just a small farm starting it's journey in the world.

Interrupting our bacon seeds coverage to bring you some of the gorgeous eggs my girls laid today.

I think I’m going to tentatively commit to a “Meet the Bacon Seeds” series. There’s only four so I might actually see this one through…

No promises though since life, uh, gets in the way…

Names are mostly picked but 3/4 still lack their full titles. (This will make sense later) Anyway here we go!

Listen, this was always a goal, it was just a “let’s do this in a few years!” goal.

Then a certain someone showed me a picture of a lone piglet so of course I said yes and let’s get him some friends too.

So, the Kune Kune have landed. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’ve waited eleven weeks for this moment…

Big thank you to Southern Biophilliac Urban Farm for helping make my Snowflake Bobwhite dreams come true!

Now here’s hoping the other one is a girl 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

Radish update:

She big.

Our small gosling is looking so grown up as her feathers come in. Not to exclude anyone Bobby and Ginger are doing their summer molt so they look as rough as she does. 😅

Soon it will be hard to tell her and Ginger apart… I should probably get leg bands actually 🤔.

My goose Ginger went broody a few months ago but none of her eggs ever developed. Since she refused to give up and kept sitting on the nest I ordered a gosling for her so she could be a mom.

Meet Radish. They took to each other immediately. And now Bob has a family to protect.

I give up on my chocolate Muscovy hens. After 1 day of having ducklings Tiramisu decided that the juvenile ducklings must be hers actually and she abandoned her kids. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Thankfully Pudding Pop is an absolute unit of a mom. Though head count at sundown is a bit rough now with all the tiny zoomies. 😅
July 2, 2025 at 3:58 PM
After being mostly MIA (not really she was just hiding under the house) for over a month my little Pudding Pop has come out with 7 small fluffy Muscovy ducklings in tow.

Good job Pudding.

Holding on to the small moments of joy whenever they appear.

…did I mention we added quail to the farm?

These tiny birds are amazing. Definitely happy to have finally added the livestock I originally planned to start with. 😅

Still waiting on other hatching eggs to ship but so happy to have these full grown ones already. Eight weeks flew by…

In the chicken keeping world it’s advised to never have a favorite because the second you give one that title it’s equivalent to putting a red shirt on them and telling them to have fun on their away mission.

So I don’t have favorites.

I just think this one is neat.

I wish to be as care free as a duckling playing in a muddy puddle.
June 2, 2025 at 6:39 PM
While these aren’t the first ducklings hatched out this year they are the ones I’ve been waiting on the most.

Mainly because Nori decided to lay a nest in an empty planter on my deck. 😒

After over a month they’re finally here. Which means I can power wash my deck now. 🫠

The final chick has hatched. Five adorable fluff balls and one tired but happy hen. Darling did a fantastic job for a first time broody - staying with it for an extra week even! - so now we get to see how she does as a first time mom.
March 13, 2025 at 2:08 PM
The first chicks of 2025 have hatched! Darling is a tired but happy momma - who is getting an egg and grub scramble later to help replenish her nutrients after a MONTH of being broody. She’s hatched out three tiny fluff balls, here’s hoping they’re pullets! 🤞🏽
March 12, 2025 at 2:57 PM
After an extra week (explanation to follow) my little Darling is almost done sitting on her nest and it sounds like the chicks are ready to meet her.

Did you know chicks will call to each other while hatching? It’s like they’re saying “We can do this!” Here’s hoping hatching goes well! 🤞🏽

I would like the record to show that she has access to a full pond that is less than a two minute walk away.

🤷🏽‍♀️

I’m fairly certain there are still hens not back online after the winter break but almost everyone is laying and the fruits of a year’s worth of adding to the flock are showing.

I’ve got lots of hatching eggs on order and the first round (right picture) are already in the incubator. 🤞🏽
February 28, 2025 at 2:45 PM
For the record, there was an empty nest box next door. But they both wanted the “favorite”. 🙄

The ladies are in their pastel phase today.

Also got surprise speckles on the green egg. They look pink until you wet the bloom and discover the flecks are actually brown.

I love the artistry of nature.

Winter finally hit this month and after an arctic blast dropping temps we’re getting some snow. I’m thankful for more water to slowly replenish the land and our aquifer.

The birds are having a blast with the frozen water falling from the sky too. I honestly don’t know who’s happier - them or me.

Meet my newest farm hand - Callie Coco.

She’s about three months old and is the litter mate to my Benimaru. She’s warmed up to me finally and has apparently fallen in love with Chopper. He seems to be catnip to female cats. 🤷🏽‍♀️

My Saxony ducks are so hard to get photos of. Mainly because apparently pointing my camera at them means I’m trying to eat them so they need to run away.

Carlton. Ladies. Listen.

I don’t want to eat you. I want pictures of you. Though I do want to eat your eggs so... Pay rent already.

Decided to group Patina’s eggs that are in the fridge so I could see the progression of her finding her color groove.

She was labeled as an olive egger but this gal is pure Black Copper Marans.

I’m not mad about it…
