Cute Spring Happenings

Hi all! I just wanted to share a few snapshots of some cute little spring happenings here at Edgington Farm.

Nothing says spring like daffodils blooming.

Our 8 wounded and picked birds were doing well enough that I decided to combine all of our new chicks (except the still tiny little bantams) in our handy brooder box. 

We've been letting Bacon bunk in with our older chicken flock, and judging by this picture, everyone is adjusting well. This was bedtime, and everyone seems comfy and cozy!

These were some of our Easter colored eggs. We had lots of fun doing them.

Toby had a nice upsetting faceplant in a puddle. 

These little bantam chicks are like feathery little ping pong balls. They love being held too. So cute!

Thanks for reading!

New Addition To The Family

Hi all! I'm excited to announce the newest addition to our farm, barnyard and family. I present to you, our seven week-old potbelly piglet, Bacon!

Bacon is little, black, male potbelly pig brought to us as a gift to our son from my mother. He comes from Versailles, KY. He was the last little piggy from the litter to be adopted as he is very vocal! He is not afraid to announce how unhappy or scared he is with a series of very loud squeals or low grunts.

He happily gobbles up little piggy food and is currently residing in a large plastic tote. This will be his home until we figure out a more permanent fixture.

For those of you wondering, NO we will NOT BE EATING little Bacon. He is a PET. So,  those of you who are worried, worry no more. :)

I'm excited about this little venture. Pigs are very intelligent and I love having a unique little pet that fits perfect in our farm. Wish us luck!
