Bush Family Farm

This week we have officially started the "Bush Family Farm". I have always wanted to have chickens, and now have the perfect spot for them. We picked up 6 baby chicks on Wednesday. 5 Arucauna's and 1 Rhode Island Red. The Rhode Island chick will lay brown eggs and the other 5 will lay blueish green. We each picked our own to name. Larry's is Over Easy, mine is Claire, Cannon's is Cluckster, Gabe's is Christine, Logan's is Coop, and Christian's is Sally.

This Saturday we also brought home our first pig. Cannon wanted to try 4H, and picked raising a pig. He named her Hamlet, we brought her home from Grace Idaho. She sat in the back of the car in the dog crate, and stunk the car up the whole way home, NASTY! This should really be a learning experience for us all. He has to learn to walk her around an arena and keep her happy and healthy. Well, I think this is enough of a change for our family for a good month or so, hee hee. I will keep you posted on the well being of the animals, and how well we keep up with them.
