All the babies have arrived! The Metzer drake order came early this morning, and I just went to pick up the Anconas. The Anconas are unsexed, so we’ll see which flock they’ll live with as adults, but all the ducklings are happily playing together! #ducklings #ducksaspets #ducks

Teddy helping to finish filling up the drake pond. #ducksaspets #drakes #ducks
The snow is (almost) gone again and that, along with the days getting longer, makes Rodan happy! Actually, he was trying to get Teddy’s attention for some reason, but everything he does is adorable. #uromastyx #moroccanuromastyx #reptiles

My adorable boys—Jack and Maui—say it might be winter, but they can smell spring in the air. #turkeyaspets #backyardpoultry #turkeys

The whole rainbow of chickens came running this morning when I brought out the Brussels sprouts, tomatoes…and there might have been a stale bag of Lucky Charms. A hundred percent of chickens surveyed say the cereal is magically delicious! #chickens #chickensaspets
All the llama and alpaca sketches are done and are heading into the computer for enlarging, and then it’s time for inking! #llamalove #llama #llamas #alpaca #alpacas #llamaart #sketch
We got more snow last night, but our temps are out of the teens, so most of the critters came out today. The ducks just have one question—where the heck is their pond? #ducksofinstagram #ducks #petducks
We didn’t have a white Christmas (one day off!), but we’ve been white since. It’s been so unusually cold that Teddy is one of the only critters that has gotten to go outside, but he loves it! #snow #goldenretriever #snowdog #snowday
I got my hair dyed last night! It’s kind of hard to tell in this light, but I got the top dyed red— the sides and back are still natural. And the awesome thing is that she didn’t have to bleach it, so it should be easy to maintain.
I was taking pictures of the studio the other day, and both my boys came over to say hello ❤️ #guineapig #guineapigs #guineapigsofinstagram #guineapiglove #guineapiglover #guineapiggies
I have no idea where I put the majority of my ornament hooks, but I found enough to decorate our ocean tree and hopefully have enough for the woodland garland around it. #christmas #christmasdecor #christmastree #christmastime #christmasdecorations

Here are best buds Peanut and Daniel being carried to meet a couple new flock mates ❤️ #chickens #roosters
It’s been a pain to clean out since I’m still regaining strength, but I finally got the main coop switched over to wood chips! I’ve been using wood chips for the smaller coops, which is way easier to dig out than straw, and obviously the chickens love it. #chickens #chickencoop

Our power was out for the first half of the week. Teddy knew something wasn’t right and his allergies were bothering him, so when UPS brought one of his birthday presents, we couldn’t help but give it to him early! This was him falling asleep with it ❤️#goldenretriever #doglife
I’m not sure what type of mushrooms these are, but they’re adorable little guys. Have you seen any awesome mushrooms this fall? #mushrooms #mushrooms🍄 #wildmushrooms

Right now outside my studio window there are two adorable bunny helpers ❤️ #rabbits #bunnies

I got several new plant babies yesterday ❤️ A couple, which I’ll post soon, are adorable mystery cacti. But this one is a zebra plant, and she looks awesome in my parrot planter. #zebraplant #succulents #succulent #succulove #succulover #indoorplants #plantmom
