Big plans today for me. I am going to be alone, here, on the homestead. The family is heading off to the flea market to sell some eggs and other things. So, I will be left to my self to stay busy.
As anyone who woks a full time job and is building a homestead knows, the day off is hardly a day off. I have much to do. We have broiler chicks scheduled to arrived this coming tuesday. So, I have to get the brooder ready for them. I am also in need of making repairs to the chicken tractors, all minor, but the y need some fixin'. I am also in the process of setting them up for hanging waterers and feeders. We have done it the old fashioned way for all these years. I am making a platform, attatched to the tractor to hold a five gallon bucket of water, gravity fed to the waterer.
Then, I have some grass trimming to do. This is the only thing I do not like about spring/summer. I cut a lot of grass with a pushmower. I am in the market for a rider, by the way.
Who knows what I will find to do today, but I am sure I will stay busy.
