Sharing my Snacks in the Morning

Everyday when I come to the farm I arrive early so I make sure to bring some food with me for a morning snack. Throughout the morning I eat when I feel hungry and often I am joined by a free roaming chicken or two looking to share with me. There are several chickens that get to roam free on the Dancing Goat Farm and they like to follow me around waiting for me to get something to eat so they can share. I always bring extra snacks so when I share with the chickens as well as the goats there is going to be enough for all of us. I always enjoy sharing my snacks with the goats who are always more than happy to eat whatever I offer them. For instance when I am eating a banana I give little pieces to the chickens and when I am done I let the goats eat the peel which they really enjoy. When the goats get a snack they always make sure to thank me with a gentle head butt or a big kiss. The faces they make in anticipation of getting their snacks is priceless and it is impossible to ignore them and that is the reason why I always make sure to have enough snacks with me when I am at the farm. Well I will be back early tomorrow morning so check back soon for more stories and pictures from the City Boy on the Farm.

Chico the Man

It was foggy and overcast this morning at the Dancing Goat Farm. All the chickens, quails and goats seemed happy because it had cooled down a little bit. After I did all of the cleaning, feeding and egg gathering I took time to visit with the rescue cats as well as my special friend Chico the Man. Chico is a two year old Fancy Rooster that Pam held for a year until the day came when he was supposed to go home but his owners told Pam they didn't want Chico anymore and that she could do whatever she wanted with him. Well Pam's heart is so big that once she got the news about Chico she decided to let the farm be his forever home without any hesitation. It is hard not to feel bad for Chico being left behind for a year and then being left behind forever but he is better off here at the farm with his three wives and all his friends. I always make sure I spend time with Chico whenever I am at the farm and I tell him how special he is and let him know he will always have a home. Well I will be back again in the morning so make sure to check back soon with the City Boy on the Farm for more stories and pictures. Also check out City Boy on the Farm @ Facebook.

Tex visits with the Goats

This morning I was greeted at my car by Tex and a few of the other free roaming chickens on the Dancing Goat Farm. As soon as I got out of my car I gave out a few snacks and as I was walking up to the farm those chickens followed me hoping on getting something else to eat. The weather was beautiful and there was a nice breeze which all the animals seemed to be enjoying. I was in a hurry today so I got right to work cleaning, feeding and gathering the eggs. When I was done I made sure to take the time to check on all the animals as well as hand out a few more snacks to my special friends. As I was leaving I noticed Tex in one of the outdoor enclosures visiting with the goats he is very social and I guess that's also one of the perks of being a free roaming rooster. Well I will be back tomorrow so check back soon with the City Boy on the Farm and also please check out my Facebook page which is City Boy on the Farm for daily posts.
