Drstratton - My Backyard Journey Journal

[drstratton]

We worked all day. My back is so tired. Transplanted flowers and planted sunflower seeds and I got my onion sets in. Plus everything I shared earlier.

Hubs tilled the garden boxes. I love this little tiller so much. We would have been using shovels. The tiller is still a workout, but so much more efficient.

111 onions. Walla Walla, Sweet Red and Candy. I like sweet onions

A few more of our irises.

This one was from hubs dad.

My favorite Columbine. Reminds me of a sunset.

Those are some nice raised beds! I like the concrete steps and the sides that make beds too. Everything looks so nice.

I was so happy when we finally put steps in, it was a goat path for over 20 years...lol

This is a first! I've been wondering why I hadn't been getting any of the largest eggs.

 

[SageHill]

Those silly hens!

 

[drstratton]

I had 18 older eggs and the ones I collected off of the rabbit hutch...lol So, I threw them all into my instant pot. My favorite way to hard boil them. After they were cool, I peeled and chopped 3. I save my shells and feed them to the hens separately.

The girls approved. A couple of them grabbed pieces and ran off with them, so their sisters couldn't steal it...lol
