We have four roosters around here and this guy just happens to be the smallest of them all. His name is Dylan because he's kind of a jerk, just like my favorite brother-in-law. πŸ˜‰

The other three roosters do a pretty good job of keeping him in check, but every now and then, his little man syndrome shows and he tries to be big and bad when the boys turn their backs to him.

Last night, he decided that he was going to try his luck with middle brother. And he won. He didn't hurt him, but my sweet boy was pretty upset.

In actuality, the rooster just thought he won.

I was watching all of this go down while I milked cows.

Out of nowhere, baby brother came around the corner with a stick and he when I say he meant business, he meant business! 🀭

He busted through the gate into the chicken run, threw the stick in the direction of the rooster, yelled something (I can only imagine what that was), then took off running as fast as his little legs would carry him.

I'm not sure I have ever laughed so hard in my life!

I said all of that to say this, when my boys are teenagers and I get a call that they have been in a fight, I'll know. I'll know it's the baby. Someone will probably be picking on his big brothers and he'll handle it. I mean, he's one and he's already handling it. πŸ˜…

These kids are free range and feral. And I wouldn't want them any other way.

Little Bit has lost his shoes.

He had them when we went outside, but when I ask him where his shoes went, he just shrugs and says, "don't know!" πŸ™ƒ

I'm pretty sure his mad face is not about losing his shoes. It's more that I would have the audacity to ask him what happened to them.

And Bingo didn't think that I was overstimulated enough, so he has decided that he needs to be a lap dog during milking now. 🫠

Five days until processing day and I know a few people who are going to be so happy when we don't have to move chickens every night at dark. πŸ˜‰

Who do you think will be happier? Me or Josh? πŸ˜‚

Everyone wants free range chickens until they see what the free range chickens do to the yard.

I am everyone.

It seemed like such a good idea.

Now my entire yard is just begging to twist ankles. πŸ˜…

Probably should've cleaned the house yesterday.

Made 27 jars of strawberry jam instead.

Will probably make that many more today because I'm responsible like that. 🫠🀣

I'm sure when Josh married me, he never dreamed he would have to make so many chicken waterers. πŸ˜‚

And I'm certain the thought of making one out of a 55 gallon drum never crossed his mind way back then.

But, man, I sure am thankful that he's such a good sport! πŸ˜‰

A little clabbered milk for the meat birds tonight.

Our Jersey girls, quite literally, keep everyone and everything around here fed well. πŸ˜‰
