Lots of rain. Now the garden is doing super and I have weeds, weeds and even more weeds to pull. Funny thing is right now I can not even step in the garden with out getting covered in mud. So it will wait. ( that is not breaking my heart, I do not like weeding the garden) LOL

I caught some really cute pictures of Ziva , her best friend ever Dutch our cat and even myself. They were in rare form and having a blast hamming it up for the camera.

This is Ziva playing with Dutch but it does look like she is going to get him doesn’t it? It was a one in a million catch. Dutch just purrs and purrs for Ziva.

]]> http://www.aprilfoolfarm.com/flemish-rabbits/feed/ 0 Our First Peacock to hatch at the Farm ( so excited) http://www.aprilfoolfarm.com/our-first-peacock-to-hatch-at-the-farm-so-excited/ http://www.aprilfoolfarm.com/our-first-peacock-to-hatch-at-the-farm-so-excited/#comments Tue, 02 Jun 2015 16:15:03 +0000 http://www.aprilfoolfarm.com/?p=336 Yesterday June 1, 2015 we had our first peacock hatch in the incubator. We did not expect any to hatch so we were surprised and thrilled. This is the second year attempting to hatch peacock eggs the first year we did not have any success.

If we are really lucky and I mean really lucky one or more will also hatch. It was funny because I had said one of the eggs looked like it was moving (ever so slightly) however I said I was not sure if it was truly moving or if I wanted it so badly that I was seeing something that was not there. Now the egg that hatched was the one that was moving. The egg that hatched was Scar’s.

Scar is my Goth child peacock. Does not like to be photographed and is often by herself. Jay-lo is my pre-Madonna loves to be photographed and always right there to see what is going on.

I have photos I took yesterday in the incubator and I took some photos in the brooding box this morning (June 2, 2015). The chicks in the brooding box are a little over a week old. The chicks will help teach the peachick how to eat and give it comfort too. ( no one really likes being alone, smile)

We have crossed two hurtles the first one being it hatched, second one it survived the night. If the peachick survives tonight we are looking good. No matter what we have done wonders over our first attempt last year.

enjoy the pictures :)

scripture for this post is from New International Version (NIV) Bible;

Hebrews : 11:1

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
