The boys.

Daryl is a strutting proud papa again, his feathers are looking so much better now LOL.
My missed rooster on round up day. He has turned out quite handsome and has the funniest young roo crow. He sounds like a fun house clown, I have to get it on video one day LOL.
Olive Eggers are just as cool as Easter Eggers...you never know what they will look like all grown up.

Queen Bee...every bit her mothers daughter. UniPiggie, when smaller, was the only one to get herself places she wasn't supposed to be. Seems Queenie has similar skills LOL.
My bachelors...they are such fun boys.

Getting big.

Hard to believe they will be as big as dad back there in a year!
Still love belly rubs.
I think "Tank" is sold...we are sure going to miss this guy.

Almost time for school to start up.

Back to school night tonight....soon to have 4 kids in ALL DAY school!! I would be more sad, if I wasn't so dang excited LOL.

Our lil country school is tiny, only 1 class per grade...I think we are somewhere near 150 kids K-5 LOL. So the triplets will again all be in the same class. The kids brought in their school supplies and found their seats. They put the triplets at different tables, no complaints here.






































Hayden is super excited, her BFF Kaylee sits at her table.





































Mr. Jericho...he is pretty excited for Kindergarten.






































Checking out the playground.





































Four Cougars.
Back home...they have been waiting to find one of these guys. He was safely released after a thorough inspection LOL.

Weaning can be rough.

We moved the 6 boy piglets to their own pen today. While I am sure weaning is no fun for any baby, these guys took it well...as did their moms. I think the moms were probably more than ready LOL.

They are close enough to still hear each other, so the stress has been minimal. The little guys have moved over to where the adults used to be....it was nice to have a pen ready.
7 weeks old, ready anytime in the next week to start heading to their new homes....that went fast.



The girls and Raven are still in with the moms and President Business. The two girls we aren't keeping are sold already...just waiting on pick up from their new owners.


The babes have figured out how fun mud is on a hot day.


Everyone is looking good. WildStyle and Unipiggie are lean right now...as to be expected, but they don't look too drug down which is great.
Raven has been pretty much accepted now, she will still get chased here and there, but for the most part she is a part of the fam. That is her diving under WildStyle for food LOL.


The boys have already learned feeding time rocks, and are getting more friendly.
Chilling at the bachelor pad.


At least they have each other.







Everyone is settling in fine.
Our turkey couple hatched some more babies today...little cuties! I am not looking forward to winter, going to miss all the babies.

Hayden stumbled upon them and came running to tell me "the momma turkey has chickalets" LOL

She loves being a mom.
This girl is all grown up...isn't she stunning. In the sun she is nothing but a purple and green iridescent beauty.

All of our girls have Princess names...but this little home hatched olive egger has been named "Maleficent" it is just too perfect with her colors.

My Salmon Faverolle roo is growing up nicely too. He is pretty handsome.

This lovely girl is another one of our incubator babies all grown up. I will have to ask the kids if they have named her yet, I can't remember LOL.

Take good care of them big boy!
