She’s been with demonstrators following Mark Carney around Montreal today. But she was arrested. Apparently, she was too loud while trying to get Mark Carney to care about her family. Here’s what she told me: 12341118

Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 18/07/2025Can't get enough of these fluffy little idiots. It's interesting how much more relaxed this batch is compared to the last one. I'm guessing having 24 together is less stressful on them then when I raised just two. I can easily pick these ones up without much of a problem. 080
Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 16/07/2025Two more baby #quail hatched overnight, bringing the total to 25. This gives me a hatch rate of 76%, which is way better than my first run. I really needed a win here and it feels great to see some success. 2554

Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 21/06/2025In a week that keeps throwing challenges my way... Last night our broody hen passed away while sitting on her eggs. She was very determined and rarely got up off of them. Food and water was always nearby but she just wouldn't eat. R.I.P. Jett. #homesteading #chickens #backyardchickens 190

Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 12/06/2025I think photo radar should be used in every school and construction zone. Hell, they can pepper them in along all roads and highways. Instant enforcement or a nice way to collect funds for the municipality. 020

Many employees lost their jobs following the tests. This is the story of The Fruit Machine. 🧵1/6 46130

Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 21/05/2025First baby #quail hatched here at the homestead. I can see a couple siblings on their way. Fingers crossed for safe hatching. 0100
Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 20/05/2025This morning when I went to check on the birds I was saddened to see one of my #quail had passed away in the aviary overnight. It's the first natural death on the #Homestead so far and a good reminder of the reality of what I'm doing here. 100
Mike @mikeologie.bsky.social · 20/05/2025Day 18 and hatching should be imminent. I'm really hoping I come home to some baby #quail tonight from work. 020
