Super Produce Score
Today the geese, goats, cows, and pigs are dining on some serious organic grub: hydroponic butter lettuce, broccoli, romaine, carrots, peas, and multi-greens all courtesy of a generous big box retailer’s waste stream. What a feeding frenzy.
Don’t say pigs can’t fly. Pigs meet Cows for First Time at Busted Bucket Farm
For the first time, the young pigs met the cows in the same pasture. The pigs thought the cows were something to eat until the cow made the pig fly by throwing it with her head. I wish had caught that move on video.
Pigs love eggs from rogue chicken nests
With a flock of extremely free ranging chickens at Busted Bucket Farm, sometimes the chickens lay eggs in rogue nests around the property . When I find these eggs, I don’t know how long they have been there. There isn’t usually a hen brooding them so they are not viable to hatch. It is time to convert some protein. The pigs absolutely love the eggs and think it is an Easter Egg Hunt. They somewhat gently crack the egg open and suck the insides.

These 3 girls and 1 boy are getting large quickly. Good food and free ranging!
