Garden update and hot chickens.

We have definitely had our share of hot muggy August summer days lately and the poor chickens have been trying to find some relief.  In case you have ever wondered what a hot chicken looks like, here is one of my hens demonstrating the necessary pose.

I also have a Loki update:  He had been getting better over the past couple of weeks but yesterday he seemed to get worse again.  Ironically we had another storm.  Up to yesterday he was walking on his foot and even stretching out his toes.  Today, however, he is not walking on his toes rather his leg.  We’ll give him some time but not sure what happened.

Garden Update:


The garden has been larger than we ever anticipated.  We have been enjoying the harvest.  Dustin has been working on homemade Spagetti sauce and Sadie has become quite a pro with  zucchini bread.

I am a school administrator by day and a new hobby farmer by night. My family consists of my husband, a farmer boy at heart, and myself, a city girl learning the ropes, along with our two children. We are excited to embark on this new adventure.

  1. Wonderful pictures Amy. Always enjoy catching up with your critters and Dustin’s garden. I can’t help but chuckle a little thinking that your Dad’s palate for veggies is corn. Nothing else, just corn!! 😊
