Sooooooo much rain! A flooded chicken coop and a shorted out electrical fencing is no good! Talk about a frustrating weekend!

We had a busy weekend out at the farm. Unfortunately, not busy doing the things we had intended to do…

We arrived at the farm to find the electric poultry netting shorting out due to standing water in the run. There was also standing water in the chicken coop. Talk about a nasty (and smelly) situation for the chickens…

This was towards the end of the day. The water had gone down some and I placed a fence picket on the ground as a bridge to get in and out without getting soaked. They looked pretty sad!

Unfortunately we had to leave the fence off overnight but Sunday the water was down enough that we were able to get it back on. It was a pretty frustrating weekend as we had big plans to make lots of progress on the perimeter fencing. We’ve got some exciting things coming to the land but first, we need a fence!

How adorable is she? 😍

We have some friends keeping our goats for now but we want to be ready to bring them to the farm by Thanksgiving. That means the fence and a shelter have to happen now!

Other exciting news…. We’re expecting! That’s right, we’re fairly certain that all three of our hutch rabbits at the house are expecting and due this week! Stay tuned for baby bunnies! Unfortunately the land bunnies don’t seem to be expecting anything….they may find themselves in a pot if they don’t do something soon!

Check out the latest video for updates on the farm, and stay tuned for baby bunnies! 😍
