Chickens

Scott built this awesome chicken coop (Martha Stewart style - but don't tell him that). He bought ten pullets (young female chickens) to raise. 2 of them turned out to be roosters (they were so pretty) but we don't want roosters so dad took them and traded for some more pullets. We only have 3 that are laying eggs right now. Every day we get one green egg (in the picture) and two tan eggs. When they are all laying we might have to give some of the eggs away. I love to look out and see the chickens in the pasture. At first they were coming in the back yard and they all came up to the porch and pooped on it. So Scott finished putting up the fence between the back yard and the pasture - and no more chickens in the back yard.

Awesome job Scott on the Chicken coop! Alexa started building a chicken coop a year ago, but hasn't finished it... one of these days, hopefully she will.
