Life on the farm in the #UndisclosedLocation is swinging towards spring at a rapid clip.

And we have to replace our rooster so we can hatch more chicks, since our preference is breeding rather than just getting fertilized eggs.

Bought a small poulet, just barely more than a handful of bird, for about $4. Built him a small enclosure with a heat lamp, a feeder and a waterer out of a plastic tub. Perfectly sized for just the one bird.

And a warning that our gosling plans need to be larger.
