A Cluckwork Orange- story of our chickens

[Ifitaintbroke]

I have some chickens. They lay eggs. That's pretty much it.

Seriously though, we have a few chickens, and we're working on building them a house. Progress is slow, with so many things to do. We also have some rabbits. They don't do anything. Except poop.

I may post here occasionally to update on our chickens and post pics of them.

Both the chickens,,, and rabbits will also provide Luv, and companionship for you ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, if you have time in the morning,,, to sit with them,, and enjoy your espresso.
Many peeps keep rabbits just for the organic poop,, which is supposed to be excellent. Chicken dumplings seem to be too Hot, unless composted for quite a while. I just dump my chicken waste around my trees. seems fine there. I don't grow garden vegetables.

Yes, that is what we use them for.

Well, just had the joy of watching a hen eat a mouse.

Wait until one of them gets a snake, and they all play keep away

It's usually me who gets the snake. I'm not afraid of them.

My kid has a video of 2 of our chickens chasing the one with the snake directly toward me, and me taking off when I realize what’s hanging out of her beak. NOT my finest moment

It happens to the best of us.

If they show up with one of those Joro spiders we have around here, they’re getting rehomed.
