First Day of Spring

It's time to break out.

All the animals have been rather placid and sedentary through the winter months. They eat hay that is delivered to a central location, so there is no real need to rotate pastures (though they have ample room to roam).

And they are ready. Just waiting and watching for those first shoots of green grass.

And the seeds and bugs that come with them.

Which translates into great protein.

Even some sloppy spring rain would be appreciated by our porcine friends.

As long as there's dry hay to return to.

It wont be long now!
