    Secret coop

    I agree! The market is insane right now. We want to move! But are not sure if we will be able to this season. But yes.. we def want to. Especially chickens being more of a gateway, i feel we will eventually own more animals in our life that are impossible to hide hahaha

    Secret coop

    Indeed! We have many quail! I thought it would rid the desire for chicken... It did not. Haha. Quail have basically no personality, not as trainable, not as fun... Haha also smaller eggs, obviously. Reasons why we would like chicken : )
