I got some free fence panels a while back. We used four of them to make the chicken yard (between the greenhouse and the side fence) and will probably use the rest to fence off the area between my house and the one next door neighbour. I don't have enough to fence between my greenhouse and the...

What an adorable garden pest. Rather like I feel about the deer that hang out in my yard.

I thinned out my carrots yesterday and cooked the greens (and tiny roots) into some fried rice. Waste not, want not, right? Also the first thing that I've gotten to eat out of my garden this year.

I'm completely oblivious. I see that someone got me a new Premium Feather membership as of May 5th, but I just noticed it. Thank you to the person who gave it to me!

My chickens were already in their coop last night when I went to lure them in. They learn fast. They are willing to eat out of my hand, so the first day I lured them over with some scratch and scattered some in the coop next to their feed. They ate it out of my hand then hopped into the coop...

I have 3 gold nugget plants and 3 hssiao his hung shih doing well in my greenhouse. They're still small (about 8" tall) and nowhere near producing fruit yet. I'm looking forward to them.

Chicken combs look funny to me. Most of the chickens up here are bred for cold weather so the hens don't have much and the roosters have the flower combs or other types that are close to the head. It's nice to not have to worry about their combs getting frost bite.

I kind of miss the redwing blackbirds from my old place. They sound very similar to the yellow headed blackbirds.

My weather forecast is saying 100% chance of rain/snow on Saturday.

Did you enjoy the Studio Ghibli museum?

I could totally see my little black mischief monsters doing that.

I enjoyed the movie. I would like to visit New Zealand again someday. I think it's funny that the town I moved to just happens to be Rotorua's sister city. That's the town near Hobbiton that I stayed in for a week. I was even toying with the idea of moving there, or nearby. I didn't really...

Hei Hei is Maori for "disturbance" or "disruption". He's Moana's companion on her journeys in the Disney movie.

But she knows her name! Hei Hei would be a good fit for her. She looks a little Hei Hei-ish with her poofy cheeks and goofy expression.

I feel kind of bad that I didn't think of naming one Hei Hei. I think I prefer that over Hedwig, but it's a bit late to change her name now.

My chickens like me. Today was the first time they ever tried scratch. The first time they tried it they made the funniest sounds.

iPads are NOT chickens... (read, quail are NOT chickens...)

Replace it and send the old device to me! I need two more devices so I can run all of my PoGo accounts at once. ;) (Don't worry, I'm just kidding). Do you use battery packs? Between PoGo and other reasons that I use my phone a lot, I always carry a battery pack around.

My friend came over, and between the two of us it took way less time to move two pens of birds and get a new garden bed halfway built. I plan to have three new garden beds this year. One is completely done with green beans and zucchini planted in it. Number two is built and about 1/3 filled...
