I think it was last year, now we've had ducks before the chickens, going to family for Easter dinner, so I brought some of our duck eggs over, I had hard boiled them and dyed them (FYI duck eggs don't take dye as easy as chicken eggs, nobody would try them! Ya think I was trying to poison them :D- slayv4petz

That's cool coop! My husband was attempting to make a run using a trampoline, I wish I had taken a pic of it, he lengthen the legs to make it well over 6ft tall!

Thank you for your insight. You can keep your cold weather, but I'll put my request in now for sharing your snow but only for Christmas ;) I'm of the mindset that I don't give a hoot what anyone says about our way of doing things, but I certainly understand where sunflower is coming from...- slayv4petz

Haha sometimes I think some people aka family just like to be argumentative ;) and not open minded enough to take the time to learn something new or a different way to do things. Thank you for the welcome, at the present time we're raising chickens for egg consumption, neither one of us grew...- slayv4petz
