I got a very exciting message from my sister, Brandi this afternoon! She wanted me to split an order of Americauna chicks with her!!! I've been looking for them everywhere since I lost Avery (Americauna hen I adopted from Broken Oak Farm) last year :( I love the colored eggs and am so excited to have them again soon! I'll be getting 10 of them! We're also adopting our blue swedish duckling's sister, Beatrice from Broken Oak Farm, as she lost her other siblings and is VERY lonely
 :( I'm sure Beatrice will be very happy at Little Bit Farm <3 I'll be sure to post pics of everyone later!

We went to our 1st Farm Swap of the year (and Amelia's 1st Farm Swap) at TSC in Wilton, brought a few cages and a few white leghorn chicks...didn't sell anything, but had a good time chatting with fellow farmers! If you're interested in following the FB page, go to Wilton TSC Farm Swap (Maine) page and JOIN :)

Jamison brought home these adorable assorted bantams from TSC yesterday! We think some are seabrights and we're not sure what the others are...guess we'll find out when they are older :)

We fired up the incubator this morning for the first time this year! We'll be putting in fawn and white indian runner duck eggs and barnyard chicken eggs...can't wait to see what we get!

Jamison picked up 200 chicks from the post office yesterday and 59 were dead :( I called the hatchery to have them replaced and they're shipping them out Sunday and they'll be here Monday, but it's still sad that all of those chicks died! The hatchery poked every hole out of the shipping box and they got too cold.

Meet the 2 new boys at Little Bit Farm!

Runner Ducklings Coming Soon...

Jamison just crawled under my barn to get about a dozen and a half Runner Duck eggs this morning! We'll be putting them in the incubator to hatch little Runner Ducklings...I can't wait! I'm praying they are all fertile (fingers crossed)!

Still waiting for Peachy & Helga to have babies...they'll probably go at the same time with my luck, lol.

Two of our pigs are going to slaughter tonight :( On a happier note, we brought home a boar pig to breed Rosie...we should have piglets in about 4 months :)

I'm glad most of the snow is gone, but boy do we have a mess to clean up! Lots of old hay bedding, etc. Let the spring cleaning at Little Bit Farm begin!!!

The LUCKY winners are (it was a tie):

Meredith Pepper & Holly York...CONGRATS LADIES!!! I will deliver goodies soon :)

Sorry I'm so late announcing the winner...I've been busy with a newborn :)
