		<description><![CDATA[This weekend we added the second deep to our hive. First thing we noticed after taking the lid off, was WOW WE HAVE A LOT MORE BEES! Our little colony of 10,000 original bees has been busy making babies. The second deep we added will give them much needed extra space to store up their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The broiler chicken enclosure is also our orchard. Today, I planted seven trees and Sunday I&#8217;ll be planting 3 more. We have apple, apricot, pear, cherry, plum, and peach. Most of the trees are semi-dwarf and will reach a max of 15&#8242; in height.  We chose to make the orchard double as the Dorking chicken [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[These Dorkings are our broiler (meat) chickens. We&#8217;d been raising them indoors in a brooder until this weekend. They are fully feathered and ready to romp around outside. And thank goodness because they were stinking up the workshop! As you can see in the photo above, there is one odd chicken. The one with the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We checked on our honeybee hive today to see if it was ready for the second box. Because only 6 frames were drawn out (drawn out means that comb is built on them), we decided not to add the next box. When they have fully drawn out 7 frames, we&#8217;ll add the next box. The lower deep [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our Dorking chickens are ready to move outside. We&#8217;re working on finishing their outdoor enclosure. In the meantime, we&#8217;ve expanded the brooder and put panels across the top. You might remember this one with the crazy hair. He/she is the mystery chick. We&#8217;ve named it &#8220;Roadrunner.&#8221; And I&#8217;m happy to report that our sick chick seems to [...]]]></description>

It got its scientific name (Stellula, meaning &#8220;little star&#8221;) from the beautiful star-like red patch on the males&#8217; throats.  &#160;]]></description>
