Livestock journal: moving the babies to greener pastures
We let the young ones out of their brooder when they were about a week old. They loved the grass!
Pool time is a plus: ducks and geese need water deep enough to douse their entire head
They have quickly outgrown this space, which is now very well fertilized. We had some volunteer Blue Hubbard squash appear, and then quickly disappear.
So fluffy!!! The duckies are beginning to feather out and are a bit prickly these days.
Today we rehabbed the last summer yurt, putting on a new tarp and finding a water bucket to go inside. The babies cried during the ride down to their new house, but they are settling in now, making tiny happy chirrups.
Goodnight!
