Our rooster suddenly became aggressive a couple weeks ago. The internet says that this is just a phase as he adjusts to his raging hormones. Experienced chicken raisers suggest that we gentle his rage by carrying him around and showing him who's boss. The kids are still scared to go near him. I agree that he needs more time, but as I tell him regularly, if he doesn't grow out of this soon he is dinner.
The turkeys are about 8 weeks old and ready to move outside to their new home.
Here is the new turkey house - neighbor to the duck and rabbit hutch.
The design improvement on the turkey house is a chicken wire floor lining to keep animals from digging under and getting in. We probably need to add the equivalent to the old house.
One of hubby's best friends came to visit with his family. We went raspberry picking at a local orchard. They have some fun tunnels, slides, animals, and sand boxes for the kids.
These kids are experienced berry pickers.
Baby L was mostly eating. Picking some for herself and then taking all the ones I put in my bucket.
