After looking at the weather reports, I decided to let the chickens stay home for another week.  We will plan on the big move next Friday as the temperatures are beginning to rise again.  Today we will begin building some needed fence to pasture our hogs.  We will be building a finishing field.  We are going to pasture our sows all summer where they will farrow.  Once we have weaned the piglets, we will send them to the finishing field where they will be able to harvest their own corn, soybeans, and various other grains, as well as green clover and grasses.  Before we plant it, we will put the sows on to till it.  In the fall we will plant wheat or rye to serve as a cover and some spring pasture for our animals.
