Flax Pickin’ Goose & Moose

Here’s the story…     My flick in yesterday’s post was about our new c…n garden. This is it here…

When my good friend pointed out that it’s illegal to grow c…n in Florida, I knew I had to right that wrong.   So, here is the sequel to “C…n Pickin’ Duck & Chicken”.  It’s called “Flax Pickin’ Goose & Moose”.  And yes, I realize there is no Moose in this flick, but let’s all rise above that.

Happy Homesteading,

Surprise!

Pay close attention to your breeding schedule.  Separate your male and female hogs before they are 4 months old.  At this morning’s feed we were quite surprised to find 10 new piggies snuggled up to Rachel, who has been penned by herself since the beginning of Feb.

Counting back 3-3-3…3 months, 3 weeks, and 3 days, that puts her in close proximity to Sweetie’s offspring around mid Jan, when the males would have been just turning 6 months!

 

Welcome to Rachel’s 10 little piggies!!

Happy Homesteading,
