One of the nastiest chores on the homestead. Cleaning out the chicken coop.

Today we are adding potassium to our garden.

Here is a chainsaw Tip and Trick that I have been using

The Ohse Homestead and our Chicken Mineral Program

Men, You need this to take your chainsaw game to the next level!

We were getting all the Farm Chores done today!

We moved some piglets around!

We broke the tractor.... Can we fix it?

Just before summer, we placed 3 of our piglets in the area where we plant our garden. We used the piglets to clean out all of the growth of the spent plants in the garden and we can say now that they accomplished the mission. We moved them to a new paddock that we built last week. 96ft by 16ft. That is 1500+ Square Feet of pig habitat. This will also serve to help us come time for them to go to freezer camp.

Why would you put a Pig Hut in a garden?

We needed to move this big gilt to another paddock cause she was being a huge hog with the feed..

If you do what I did it could cost you thousands!

We now have piglets but it was not without challenges.

We are showcasing our new Pig Trap. We built this to prevent Miss Piggy or any other Pigs we have from escaping if they try to push out the gate when we are opening it...

All the Baby Chicks got evicted from the digs in the shop and placed in the outdoor nursery all in preparation for new tenants coming next week!

This weekend we work on cutting some firewood for heating our home during the cold winter nights, finishing up the chicken coop, and giving you a livestock update. Next on the to-do list is to build the Chicken Run for the new coop.

Moving Chickens into the new coop and we are welcoming new live to the Homestead, along with getting ready for growing season!

Miss Piggy escaped her pen and we had to think fast!
