Having sold all the fluffy Silkies makes chores much simpler. Everyone has a communal heated water bucket and one building. We rearranged the potable corral panels so the pony and goats can get into the barn yard with the chickens.
Feeding hay also got easier as we baled small square bales. About a third are stacked in the barn where we kept rabbits last winter. The chickens certainly think we put them inside for their enjoyment. I am looking forward to feeding hay inside during the blizzards this year.

Currently working on finding a buck to get the goat girls bred. We'll be milking later next spring but life with a baby makes farm tasks lower on the priority list
Barn yard occupants:
16-20 laying hens
2 goats
one pony
And one cat Louis
