Rhode Island Reds

We picked up three Rhode Island Reds in Lexington yesterday. It was the same guy from whom Lisa got the New Zealand rabbit.

DSCF3291 I got a load of gravel for the tractor port the other day. It can still use a couple of more loads but it’s a little more stable now.

DSCF3294 Daniel bringing out the chickens. They are quite tame.

DSCF3296 Daniel has a cool rabbit cage system. It has automatic water and waste disposal.

DSCF3308 The chickens are staying in Ivy’s stall for now.

DSCF3300 One of them laid a nice big brown egg.

DSCF3307 I had it for lunch.

DSCF3310 Malinda and Zoe meet the chickens. They came with Davina and Mindy for a cookout. David and Loretta were here too. We had fun showing the kids around. Zoe helped me feed Ivy and the ewes. The Larrys had to stay in their containment areas.
