Farm Happenings at Rise N Shine Farm
Farm Happenings for Week of August 30th
We got these little cuties in a couple weeks before I went on vacation. They are a lot bigger now. Chickens grow so fast and they eat like there's no tomorrow! But they take forever to start laying eggs, well about 20 weeks. We should start seeing small eggs from these ladies by m1 read more »

A farm never rests. It is always growing and c1 read more »
