2012 Fruit

Just for a reminder to myself and to see how this will compare with next year.

June - Boysenberries throughout the month - fair crop
July - Braeburn apples ready to pick with strawberries and elderberries coming in at the end of the month
August - Grapes matured as well as the main crop of elderberries - strawberries still producing

Note - For next year, pay attention to southern batch of berries and smaller elderberry bush, as well as blueberries, gooseberries, and currants.
Weather for 2012 - low rainfall <15" of rain, temp in 100s since April, some random humid/muggy days with extreme lows in the winter (dipping in the low teens)

Animal Count - As of Today

Sooo, as of today we are at:

Chickens:
1 Silkie
1 Rhode Island Red
1 Rhode Island White
9 Ameraucanas

Chicks:
8 Dorking pullets
2 Dorking cocks
4 White Faced Black Spanish pullets
1 WFBS cock
3 Blue Andalusian pullets
1 Blue Andalusian cock
3 Old English Game (something or other)

Ducks:
7 Runner Ducks

Goats:
3 Boer/Nubian Crosses
1 Nubian

Cats:
Calvin and McGee

Guinea Fowl:
2 Guinea Hens
4 Guinea cock

Our averages:
9 chicken eggs
6 duck eggs
3.5 cups (2.25 lbs) of goat milk

All but the guineas free range which has caused issues with my veggie garden and fruit trees. If the ducks don't trash it all and the goats don't eat it all, we should have enough wheat to hold us over for part of the year.
