A Garden in Florida: February 2010
http://luannesgarden.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
A Garden in Florida. Monday, February 8, 2010. Master of the Flock. Are you my Daddy? These same instincts for protecting and perpetuating his family have made him a little wacko though. He's begun to run at and attempt to flog other family members and visitors. He still is respectful to me, and lets me pick him up, carry him around, and smootch on him,.but we can't have him attacking the propane man! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A Garden in Florida: Boys to Men
http://luannesgarden.blogspot.com/2010/11/boys-to-men.html
A Garden in Florida. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Wheaten and Blue Wheaten Ameraucana "Ryder" and "River". Black Copper Marans "Milo". Blue Laced Red Wyandotte "Wadley". Splash Laced Red Wyandotte "Harley". While they are still considered cockerels until they reach one year of age, when they are officially roosters, these April and May hatched boys are really starting to look like the real thing. I love to watch them "strut their stuff". Are you interested in adopting another rooster? I sure do hope so!

A Garden in Florida. Monday, January 26, 2009. We coddle the potted Navel and Pineapple Oranges and relocate them whenever the temperature. Navel orange sections, with sliced banana and pecan halves. Amazingly good and easy. Monday, January 19, 2009. The Fall/Winter Veggie Garden. Cabbages planted in October will be ready for harvest in February. I have three beds of these, Savannah Sweets and Granex. Unlike the spring/summer garden, the fall garden in this area is a leisurely. The harvest, but have to f...

A Garden in Florida. Monday, October 20, 2008. Pickled banana peppers and pepper-onion relish. Roast Peppers on grill or in oven at high temp, turning until all sides are chared. Place in a bowl covered with plastic wrap until they have cooled a bit. Peel, seed and core, then toss with a bit of olive oil and garlic salt. The plastic wrap steam step makes the peppers much easier to peel. Healthy Taco Meat Mix. Saute green peppers and onions in skillet until slightly. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A Garden in Florida: March 2009
http://luannesgarden.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
A Garden in Florida. Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Here is a shot of the girls coming down their ramp after pulling an all- nighter. I suppose they are telling me they prefer dark rather than warmth and height for secure sleeping, but they had no problem sleeping under the brooder light. Soon the nights will get warmer and they will be more mature and we can leave the light off. I can't believe I'm trying to think like a chicken. Danced the night away. Shake your booty. Shake your fluffy booty. This was built...

A Garden in Florida: June 2009

A Garden in Florida. Wednesday, June 24, 2009. We are raising quail for eggs and meat. These are Coturnix. Quail and are amazingly efficient converters of feed to food. They begin laying eggs at 6 weeks of age, each hen laying 300 eggs a year and are ready to proccess for meat at 8 weeks old. We raised these Coturnix (aka Japanese Quail) for awhile nearly 30 years ago, and they are delish! This is a batch of two day old quail. They are a bit smaller than golf balls. And the pen stays clean. Will crow on ...

A Garden in Florida: April 2009
http://luannesgarden.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
A Garden in Florida. Wednesday, April 29, 2009. A few comments on our flock. Okay, the irony is not lost on me (as a few have pointed out) that I got chickens for eggs, but I'm actually buying more eggs now so I can give them their nightly hardboiled. Also, I've not forgotten this is a garden blog, and will post some garden updates soon. It's just that chicken watching is so much more fasinating than, well.broccolli. Rudy, giving me the stink eye. I guess it's a guy thing. Saturday, April 18, 2009. Eatin...
