New Chickens Soon

I have been wanting more chickens for awhile, but haven't been able to find what I was looking for. So patience as been the word!

Patience has paid off, a gentleman that I serve with on the farmers market board has what I want!! He has RIR young hens.

So William and Hayden re-purposed the wood from the kids old play set and have almost finished the new chicken coop and the nesting boxes are done.

We should be able to bring the new girls home later this week!

This will give us enough eggs for our use and sale at the farmers market.
