Chickens and Goslings and Ducks, oh my!

This week we set our birds up with a larger pen in a new location (on the east side of the food forest). Our Khaki Campbell ducklings are scheduled to move up tomorrow, but in the meantime, our chickens, goslings, and older flock of ducks seem to be settling into their new home.

The ducks wash up after supper, while the goslings clean up after them.

And if you lift up the corner of the plastic that serves as the temporary roof for the chicken tractor...

Surprise! The hens love it under there, made themselves a nest -- and saved (or at least delayed) us the trouble of fixing up a proper nest box for them!

  2. haha, you should hear the chorus! I will try to get a video of our four flocks and their various noises. They make quite the orchestra! :)
