Urban Homesteading on a Small City Lot. Home Grown Garden Recipes. Saturday, March 29, 2014. The Hens Are As Excited About Spring As I Am. The chickens are laying, full speed ahead:. Right now I have 2 1/2 dozen eggs, and I have been sharing them with a friend and making scrambled and boiled eggs and baking cakes and pancakes galore. I get 4 eggs on most days. That's an egg per chicken almost every day. That is very good. I recommend this breed to anyone who asks. Wednesday, March 26, 2014. We did end up...

Okay, remember last week I posted pictures of each chick showing the progress of their feather growth and the color patterns on their feet? I thought I would do that again today to give you an update. The best laid plans of mice and men (or should I say chicks and women). Well, anyways, I did get this cute video:. Brie is almost as friendly as Lilith and will also come when called:.

Urban Homesteading on a Small City Lot: May 2016 Has Been Rainy, Weird
http://smallcitylot.blogspot.com/2016/05/may-2016-has-been-rainy-weird.html
Urban Homesteading on a Small City Lot. Home Grown Garden Recipes. Wednesday, May 25, 2016. May 2016 Has Been Rainy, Weird. I can't remember a rainy May in Wenatchee. It has been nice not to have to water as much. It has been warm enough not to cause concern for things like peppers and tomatoes, but it has been mild enough for the lettuce and peas to do well. Several of the recent Mays here have been way too hot for spring crops like peas and lettuces. The Carrots are just now starting to come up:. The o...

Urban Homesteading on a Small City Lot. Home Grown Garden Recipes. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. February's Not Too Early for Yard Work, Right? The weather this week, was just screaming at me to come out and work in the yard. I was a bit sceptical about how much we could really do yet, but I decided to give it a go. We live in USDA hardiness zone 4 so we are months away from our frost date, and in some shady places there is still snow on the ground. If so, what kind? Should be get sod? I leveled off enough...

This is a closer look at one of the Yukon Gold potatoes. April 29th - The potatoes are a...

Convergent Lady Beetle, my favorite on potato leaves. Here is another one eating aphids at the local all-you-can-eat-buffet on my fava beans. Check out this larva. I love this picture the most. This guy is about to pupate, guessing by the size of him. Here he goes back down to the all-you-can-eat buffet. Have a nice day.

I have decided to show you, one by one, each of them and how full to bursting they are with plants. I have tried very hard to keep things under control and not over crowd things, but you will see that things are getting crazy. I kinda like a bit of crazy, though.
