My husband and I have been raising a small backyard flock ( 6 gals) for just over a year now....and I'm beginning to wonder if things aren't taking a turn. We designed our own modest coop, which was too small. So we jury-rigged an old rabbit hutch to be a coop. These two coops work well enough, but now I've decided that what we need is something larger...to consolidate as it were. We've spent $$$ ordering a lovely Amish coop (to arrive soon); spent more $$ to create a special paddock on the side of the house (with a lovely wooden fence...more $$). But....the cost now means that we REALLY should have more chickens... Lord, where will it end?
Is this an idiosyncracy, like collecting coffee cups.....or does it portend something more ominous? Do you suppose chickens will be featured on QVC?
