rooster tea pot

I am posting this so anyone that likes to collect tea pots and chickens can see. Dave's Mom bought him for me.

Also here is a picture of the ginger bread tea loaf I made today. You will notice it is just about gone too.

Goat cheese

Last week end I went out to see Vicky in Hansville. She now has a creamery that she sells her goats milk from. I have been wanting to make cheese for a while so I bought some of her goats milk. Once I got all the stuff together to make it, I thought it would be easy. Well I had to email Vicky a few times. My 1st problem was this morning there was no curds just milk. Vicky suggested that I add more rennet. Which worked. So after dinner I wrapped up my curds so they can drain for a few hours. Once that is done then I can put the cheese in a container and tomorrow morning I want to add some chives and garlic. I also hope to get pictures of the finished product and have some comments on how it tastes. So stay tuned as the cheese turns :D

my newest bunny

This is Bella, she is a sweet blue beveren. She is a new addition to my rabbitry. Thanks to Jennifer Clark for letting her go home with me.

Korbins hat

Here is Julie's cabbage patch doll modeling Korbin's hat. Actually now it is Rai's cabbage patch doll so it is a 2nd generation that is playing with this doll. I hope that Jeanna likes the hat and Korbin will actually wear a hat.

Misshelaineous stuff

Rai and I went to my friend Jeannie's grandson Korbin's 1st birthday party on Saturday. As you can see she was very tired afterwards.

Here is a couple pictures of Dave and I when we went camping on the Elwah river for 3 days. It was suppose to rain the whole time but it only did it when we were hiking out to go home.

This is a fountain that my father in law made, it is pretty cool looking and I love the sound the water makes.


This is my white rock hen who has gone broody....she has 4 rhode island red eggs under her, I am hoping they will hatch.

Here is updates on how my silkies looking. I think that the black one may be a rooster so his name stays Fred and the white one is a hen so she is staying Ethel.

Lavern and shirley

Lavern is in the 1st picture and Shirley is in the 2nd picture. They are birchen blue cochens and are about 5 months old . They are a very chatty couple of hens so thats why I named them Lavern and Shirley !

Our chickens

The white rocks have started laying. In one weeks time their eggs doubled in size from Pullet to huge brown eggs and soon the rhode island red bantam hen will be also.

Here is a few pictures of our chickens and my little helper Rai. She is just the right size to fit in the bantam coop.
