Farmgirl Friday Blog Hop #108

This week has been a whirlwind of activity in preparation for the ADGA/AGS dairy goat show in Chino, California tomorrow.  

I will be showing my little Adelaide for the first time tomorrow.  I am very excited, and a bit nervous too.  It's a long drive to take with bottle babies... but the show must go on and things will all work out.  

Jerry completed the new chicken coop/tractor for the baby chicks and we set it up and moved in the three week old chicks.  It's a hit!  They are really enjoying.  

The six week old chicks will move into the coop later in the week.  Two days ago my suspicions were confirmed when I heard the first attempts to crow from a baby rooster among this group.  I suspect I have three roos among the younger group.  Time will tell.

The carniolan beehive that I brought from Tehachapi has been flourishing, even among so many California buckeye trees. Thankfully.  The queen threw off her first 2013 swarm this week, and they took up residence in a spare hivebox. Hooray!  That was a miracle.

Mother Nature has been keeping us guessing lately.  We had torrential downpours over a few days that washed out the center of my veggie garden, though today the sun is shining again and it's HOT!  

I am heading out now to check on the chicks in their new home, then I will be off to shear my little Adelaide for her sow tomorrow.  I will post about the show on Monday.
