New Chicken Ornament this year:

 

[StelleKitten]

When the happiest day you can remember is getting a rooster back that you thought was gone forever. Lost my home a year ago and sold my whole flock. My sister went in behind me and bought my rooster and my favorite hen. She kept them a secret until I had a place I could have them again. Then she showed up on my doorstep with my chickens! It made my whole year!

That about made me cry!

What an awesome sister you have!

... you go in the car and spot every single hen or rooster free ranging
... every piece of wood, metal, plastic, pvc, or any you spot is a possible prime matter to build a coop
... every play house, swing, doghouse, prefabricated shed used or new you see has the potential to become chicken housing
... even if you grew up in the country around chickens, suddenly you realized on how many colors, size, and shapes chickens come!
... you go to HomeDepot and instead of visualizing your own home improvement you start to visualize chicken coop improvements!

When it's pouring rain, thundering, and cold and you go outside to put your girls in anyways.
When the puddle in front of the coop door is so big that you wouldn't be able to put them in without going IN the run that's way too low for you to stand up, and you go in and get poop all over your jeans, and you just shrug and put your chickens in anyways.
When your chicken is cold and wet, so you cuddle her.
