Well that still may be the million dollar question, but in our little corner of the world we just might be able to answer that question. A few weeks ago we started toying with the idea of getting chickens. An idea I thought I'd certainly never entertain. Although I like to think of myself as a country girl, let's be honest, live farm animals aren't really my thing.
Trusting my husband I decided to go with it. He worked super hard to make an unused building into a coop. I have to admit, I was surprised how well it turned out. A few days later he came home with nine chickens! We decided to go with "pullets" or young/grown chickens. We didn't think it was the best idea with a toddler and a puppy to get baby chicks.
I can honestly say this new adventure has been surprisingly fun. We are enjoying learning more about how to care for them. Of course going to the coop and finding eggs is always fun too. That is ER's favorite job.
