Kunekune on Pasture!

It didn't take the 5 Kunekune any time at all to adjust to their new home on pasture. They are enjoying the "salad bar" surrounding their Hawg Haus.
Home with a bluebird house in the yard.

The Hawg Haus is equipped with a water storage tank and solar collector to charge the battery which provides the electricity for the fencing.

Chomp, chomp, yum!

The goats and dogs were fascinated by their new neighbors, but not for long.

Stepping out the door for the first time and eating with every step.

Hen-a-bago II

Tools for the job
We began construction on our second Hen-a-bago!
Completed Hen-a-bago I on pasture
The Hen-a-bago is the roosting home for the chickens at night. It is on wheels in order to provide for ease of transporting the chickens to different areas of the farm for free-ranging, bug eating and fertilizing the soil.

The walls went up rather quickly!
Before we knew it, the Hen-a-bago II was nearly complete!
