And so it begins. Finally getting started on the new goose/shelduck pens. Will be 8x20 with 4x8 being fully enclosed to be able to give the early nesters a warmer place to sit on there eggs. Dont know why i thought it was a good idea to start them when its 95 outside 😂😂

Ohhh the adventures you go on for birds. Took a 12 hour drive yesterday to pickup some much needed equipment for next year (and some I didn't need but couldn't pass up). The lesson for today is if you need it/want it make it happen. Driving and getting this saved me multiple thousands of $$. Gotta travel for the good stuff! Plus my season is finally turning itself around! Few white crested,nepal,elliots,true silvers,tragopans,impeyans,Mikado,blue eared,brown eared made it to the brooders this week with more hoping to hatch soon!

Back to the grindstone I go. Took a few weeks off from doing projects for awhile to get my head back in the game. Growouts need to get done as well as the new goose pens. Time to get to work! Made it a point this year to get myself some Kelly chickens have a nice group growing out. Plus a few of the earlier hatches of the year are starting to go outside. The lesson for this year at least for me is TRUST WHAT YOU KNOW. Made the mistake of trusting cabinet incubators for hatching things and it's just about ruined my season. Until I went back to my trusty brinsea table tops. Doubled and tripled my number of some species I have hatched out which for some was 0. Every egg for the rest of the year is going in there. Hoping I can salvage what I can!

I don't post personal stuff here often due to this being my farm page but with all the new followers I feel it's only right to do a little introduction..

Hello everyone my name is Jonathon. Me,my wife and our kids own operate and maintain our exotic bird farm here in northern minnesota. What started as a journey to release some birds has turned into what it is now. With over 30 species of birds from button quail to emu and every where in between! Needless to say we've got plenty of work on our hands. Our full time LGDs Dottie,Luna and Karen are the thing that make all this possible. Without them there would be no farm. We've come a long way from where we started with many ups and downs but we've always pushed through! Thanks goes out to all you followers/customers for making this pipe dream a reality. Without everyone Involved this wouldn't be possible and for that I thank you! Happy hatching everyone!

Alright northern folks i think it's finally time we get a another small animal swap going for the iron range grand rapids bemidji duluth area. Ive heard stories of them being prevalent in the past and i think its about time thats a thing again. To many hatchery shipments showing up gone or shipped in eggs showing up broken. Its time to bring back direct consumer to producer/breeder relationships. I believe there to be enough legitimate breeders in our area to make this happen. Ive got experience going to and participating in setting up and getting things in place for other swaps but never the whole thing in it's entirety. Any and all help,questions,comments,suggestions are welcome. Ill start digging into the logistics soon so feel free to message me if youd like to help me and everyone else out!

Welcome everyone to jurassic park!! 😂 finally got the permanent emu pen fully fenced in and ready to go. Now comes the best part...moving them. Moved some of the quail and partridge cages moved over to open things up to turn trailers around in. Got the rock border done on the pheasant flight pen as well. And now im gonna take a much needed break for a few days before i start the next big project for the year. Lumber was delivered now its time to get to work! List of projects is getting shorter amd shorter folks!! First few chicks of the year have hatched. Elliots,true silvers and some ringnecks. Shaping up to be a good year if these fertile eggs ive got cooking hatch! Only a few stragglers left not laying yet but with spring breaking into summer that'll most certainly change. Hope everyone is having a successful year so far!
