Normally I'm not gone over a week. All of our kids are grown and moved away. My buddy would do it, but its a long haul from his house.
I'll just ask the wife if she minds 4 hounds and a load of chickens going with us on our second honeymoon.
It is always an issue when my wife and I take a trip. Who do we get to care for the animals. For my hounds I use automatic feeders and have their water plumbed and connected to an automatic water system.
What do you guys do for the chickens?
I think a few extra feeders and water containers...
