Chicken updates: January

Eggs are always best fresh and local. Growing up I ate fresh eggs every morning from some Rhode Island reds that we raised. We only have a few chickens on our farm right now, but there will be more chickens & eggs later this year when it warms up. They will back outside again then as well.

Our new rooster and hen! Jerome found them on craigslist and just picked them up nearby today. We plan to raise more chicks in the spring.


We found this sign in the barn. The chickens are not allowed to go any faster than 30mph.
Inside the barn. To critter-proof it we used some of the boards in the loft. I really enjoy the asparagus sign in the chicken area. I think it makes them feel like they are in disguise . . .
