Pastured Chickens, Turkeys & Eggs ~ Naturally Raised Feeder Pigs
Did it snow at your house last night? It did here! I’m just a big kid when it comes to snow. Even though it makes work around the farm a bit more challenging, I still absolutely love snow.
Anna and I made you a video this morning with all our grazing animals in the barns and enjoying the snow. Well, most of them were enjoying the snow. You will see that not all my darlings enjoy the snow as much as I do.
Enjoy!

Evening are wonderful. The heat of the day begins to relent, and the animals come out of their shade shelters, ready to graze. I love opening up a fresh paddock for the goats and sheep each evening.
Grass is the sweetest and most nutrient dense right at sunset after converting sunlight into sugars all day (and consequently is at its lowest nutrition at dawn after “starving” all night without the sun). Watching my darlings graze is like therapy; the stress of the day melts away as I watch them enjoy their solar powered meal.
The two youngest of the baby goats spend their evenings playing. Their energy releases like a spring, and these two hardly stop long enough for me to get a decent picture. Some young friends of mine named them Freddie and Nancy. Cute!
