Lots of pictures here. First off is a momma pig and a bunch of babies. These aren't all hers. They're from two litters. But she didn't care at all that they were all nursing at once. There are the 7 from the litter the other day and 4 more that were born early this morning.
Next is a little baby guinea keet that hatched today. There may be more but I'll wait until tomorrow to check.
We also had a single duckling hatch out of a clutch of eggs. Not sure if it was because the hen made her nest in a chicken nest box with no shavings. Or if something else went wrong. But it was just this little guy by himself and momma wasn't taking care of him so we brought him in and put him in a container as a brooder.
I also redid the roof for the piggie shelter. Now the mommas and babies should stay nice and dry.
And an inside look at the boards I have holding up the tarp. This way the tarp shouldn't sag even with rain.
I finished the waterer for the bitties a couple of days ago but kept forgetting to take a picture. The bottle still leaks a bit so I've got to address that. Probably just put silicone around the plastic adapter like I had to put around the nipples when I screwed them into the pvc pipe.
The baby animals aren't the only new things around here recently. I've also got a fig starting to form.
And some nice daylilies blooming. I really love the bright yellow ones.
And here is a pretty one with a bit of pink in it.
I also moved the bigger chickens around a bit today but I didn't take a picture of that. But that's all the pictures I have for now so I will see you guys later. Take care and have a good night.
