Off to shop
I needed to get some chicken feed so I drove on down to the feed store and got some. But what I needed most I forgot, black sunflower seeds.
Oh well, I did remember to get a bale of alfalfa for them which I’m just trying as feed for the first time for the chickens.
Visiting Joe
After getting the feed I went over to visit with my friend Joe for a bit. He’s always welding up something interesting and he has a nice vegetable garden which we always check out.
All that took longer than I thought so most of the day was gone when I got home.
I unloaded the feed into the chickens feed shed.
Tried the alfalfa
I gave the chickens a block of alfalfa to try out.
They’ve never had the alfalfa before and they were already full so they just barely nibbled on it but I bet it won’t be long until they devour the stuff as soon as they get hungry again.![]()
Chair hopping
I puttered around the yard for a bit in the evening and went in the house when the day started cooling down.
I shut the chickens in for the night.
Here’s some of my half grown ones just getting up on the roost for the night.![]()
That was my day for another nice one. Didn’t work too hard today which was good for a rest.
