Bees!

This past Saturday our hive of bees arrived! They have been flying around in our trees as if they've done it forever! Joshua still has to feed them, but soon they will be living off of nectar and will be independent of us!Their hive is towards the back of our property, but they are usually found buzzing around our plum trees to the side of the house! Along with our bees, we received a new dog named Patches! He is about 6 years old and was raised on a farm, so he is used to all of the chickens around. So far, we have only had one little mishap. The day we got him he pulled out of his collar and ran away. Today (Wednesday), Erin went outside to go check on the chicks and he comes padding out of the woods! Jennifer and Erin spent some time with him outside for a while, and Erin walked him around for a bit. Hopefully he will stick around this time. Another cool update is that the chicks have now moved into the outside coop with the other chickens! The chicks and bunnies were moved out of the garage and are now in the filled in pool area. The bunnies are still in the new cage that Joshua made, but they get to enjoy the fresh air of outside. Joshua has kept the chicks in the coop by blocking off the entrance, but they will be out and about soon! Here are the pictures!

Sweet things! These baby bunnies are the cutest. We still have three that are surviving. We lost yet another litter but this time the mother...
