In case more bird food gets thrown out the window. Said Mr Flowers.

Or that ripe tomato that someone forgot was ready, falls in my direction. Sighs Mr Flowers (the scourge of tomato plants everywhere). Though he professes innocence.

Jude is watching Tima carefully in case she decides to climb the fence. Tima is remarkably unfazed by the attention.

And lest we forget how huge Big Jude is. And no he does not eat a lot. The bigger you are the less you need to eat actually. If you are pig.


The sun is out!
My shoulders hurt from cleaning out the cow shed yesterday. (I hate dirty cows so I scoop for my health and theirs). Today I begin that corridor where Tima is standing (see above). I will scoop that right out into the mud holes outside the barn. The chickens will spread it around.
The chickens are great housekeeping assistants.
Have a lovely day.

My chickens have always been good gardening companions, when they are able. I’ve had to be careful, though, lest they dive under a rake or shovel, or my feet.
Ha ha – Mr Flowers looks a lot less guilty than Tima!
I love their personalities, and lucky you have your staff of chickens to help
Every time I see photos of the farmy, I feel like it’s an in-person visit!! Thank you!!
Glad the chickens are there to help. The others… it seems they have other expectations.
The picture of Mr. Flowers is hilarious!
He does make himself at home!
It looks like they’re all having a great new year, so far. Happy to see animals so content. It’s a lot of work, you’re doing a fantastic job.🌟😊
It is sunny and cold but they are content – bless them! Thank you – hope your day is going well Tre!
A dear friend of ours has chickens too. They all have such distinct, different personalities. Her favorite is the little, fancy beige, orphan chicken with one eye. She’s something else! Hope your day is great too!🌟
Mr. Flowers is so gorgeous!
