Trying to be like the original example of a homesteading woman: "She's up before dawn, preparing breakfast for her family, and organizing her day. She looks over a field and buys it, then, with money she's put aside, plants a garden." Proverbs 31:15-16 (The Message)

Welcome to Morning Glory Farm


A wonderful thing about a book, in contrast to a computer screen,
is that you can take it to bed with you.

Chicken Pics - found the computer connector for my camera - 11:19, Friday, July 13, 2007

Here are a few pictures of our new flock of brown egg layers and my four month old Rhode Island Red, Lucy. I'll have to wait till they're a bit older to identify the individual breeds.

Day 1 - July 9: In the pool my grandson outgrew.

Day 4 - July 12: In my grandson's new pool. They started jumping up on the sides of the other one.

This is Lemon Chiffon (and me). She's the brightest of the four yellow chicks.

Like Nana. Hunter wanted to hold a chick "on my body."

This is a Turkan. It is has a bald neck and bottom. McMurray Hatchery has a large flock of these.
We got 3 of this breed, each different. This one's name is Fluffy.

Another Turkan, called Brittany Spears (see the resemblance to recent media photos?).
The third Turkan was sleeping when these were taken. She looks just like this one only black.
We call her Ruth Buzzy because she is so funny to watch.

Naptime.

Like me when I'm on a diet, "Jenny Craig" is dreaming of the next meal.

Remember the earlier pics of Lucy? This her at one week old hitching a ride on Penny's back...

Lucy today, almost four months old. She seems to want some of the attention the new chicks are getting. To appease her Heather is giving her a little taste of their starter feed.
Sort of like a toddler wanting just a taste of the new baby's food.

Hunter and Lucy.
