HURRICANE NICOLE 2022

We Love Chickens, Not Hurricanes

Thursday Morning, dealing with tarps in 7-24mph wind LOL

Hurricane Nicole came to visit us in mid November. She began to show herself on Wednesday Nov 9th during the day light hours, the wind was picking up and we had some rain off and on. I was out on the driveway a lot mounting a couple of video cameras so we can see cars coming and going and keep an eye on things from the safety of the P2 Master Control Room (aka kitchen). When we went to bed around 9PM we were having 6mph wind according to our West weather station. 

PUFF UPDATE, FALL 2022

 WE LOVE CHICKENS

Our five little "Puff" hens

Farrrrrrrrm Living is the life for me! Chickens are now a big part of our lives here at P2. Every morning we get them out of their houses and get them ready for a day of play. 

OUR LITTLE ANNA

 WE LOVE BIRDS

Anhinga drying her wings on the beach

Meet Anhinga, she's an amazing bird that flies magnificently, has claws to help her sleep in trees and she swims underwater, impaling fish on her spear-like beak before swallowing them whole on the shore of our private Florida lake.

GATOR 2022, CUTE LITTLE MAN-EATTING LIZARD

Mary spotted this little guy sunning himself on the western shore of our pond this morning. Eight peafowl were checking him out (I had to look away because I was afraid one of our Pea-Friends was going to get chomped). Fortunately no pea's were injured. He was avoiding having his picture taken.

FIRST EGG FROM THE PUFFS

Which Puff did it?

It seems like just last week the box of day-old white Silkie hens arrived here and now they're almost totally grown up.  

One of the little fluff balls laid her first egg today. There have been egg songs coming from their coop and we've been checking for eggs but this is the first time we've actually got an egg.
