I will hitch the wagon to the 4 wheeler and take em for a ride to make up for it.' Maybe even put some straw in there for cushion, go on one of the logging roads, hang on chickies! They'll love it.!

You need a Rhino. How many you think will fit in a Rhino? I bet 20 in the back and two in the other seat. Probably 15 on the roll bar. You got more than 37?

Close to fifty, haven't counted in awhile, they'd all fit in the wagon though, maybe a few could hang off the sides, couple more on the frount-that would be the scary spot., put a box on the back, yes, they'll fit.close

That's it!! Enjoy!

Owned by 2 grown offspring, 2 spoiled cats (Albert and Stanley), and 7 (correction: 10; chicken math, ya know) silly biddies: Blanche, Clara Cluck, Dorothy, Olivia, Miss Prissy, Agnes, Edwina, Eunice, Ruby and Bernice, who fill my basket with gorgeous multicolored eggs.

Could I have those peanuts? My chickens would love to eat them and lay styrofoam eggs. They will do anything to torment me

I am glad I didn't open it outside..even if the wind blew them down the hill the chickens would have found and eaten every one of them...what is it with chickens and styrofoam! Gatorchicken, I will happily send them to you...still in the box. A styrofoam egg is better than no egg at all.

20120616_172734.jpg20120616_194646.jpgTechnology comes to the mountain. I gotta say, this was almost fun to install, the hard part was removing the old frame since I out it there NOT to get torn off. I am waiting for the sun to go down and watch it close. Tomorrow I will run the wires inside, there is a wasp nest right where I need to drill.
