Chickens!



My chickens are on order, and will be at my brother's soon! I'm getting six layers, and hopefully a rooster. I really can't wait! At the end of April, I will be house sitting for him, and will be taking care of all the babies. Now to get my coop built, I did my own horse stall without help, or a nail gun, so I'm up to the task, with nephews in tow. They're eager to help and I'm more than happy to let them!

I love that header Laurie. Such a pretty picture of you and Andy.

Beautiful chickens, you aren't going to want to leave up there. You'll have to bring all your critters with you and stay a while. Diane

My neighbor has her own chicks and a darling coop. She calls them the girls. The rooster had to go as he was being mean to the girls. I get fresh eggs from her and what a gift they are!
