Haha my brother came to visit a few weeks ago and he was like, "Why the heck do you have so many coops?!" I didn't even notice until he said something. One of them is technically a dog house, "But there's a chicken in it!" he said. I say it doesn't count since I only let broody hens raise their chicks there. Then I have a large run which isn't connected to anything yet, right now it's just where their food is. It looks coop-like but really it at most counts as half a coop. Then I have the large coop I'm working on and a smaller coop I'm working on, both about half done. Then I have the coop they actually sleep in now. So really I only have like 2, even if looking outside it seems like 5. Lol.

I just realized I forgot the two quail coops and my greenhouse. Yeah, my lawn is a little crazy right now. Maybe during this time I will finally get it all organized .

I just got a free bunny hutch too so I will be using it for quail

We have a very good governor, thankfully.

I guess that's what responsible management can get ya! Lucky you!

Note the high % of positive cases as compared to numbers tested. This is because only the very sick are being tested. Testing capability is still severely limitd. That and thankfully yesterday was set aside for testing of medical personnel, police, etc. Needles to say the number of people carrying/shedding the virus is exponentially higher.

I've been told that chick sales are booming (chicken type chicks) while stocks (money) are busting. Some people have realized that you can't eat money.
Doesn't say a lot for confidence in the current crisis management.

Yup, we're seeing an increase in visitors and people saying the virus is one of the reasons they are interested. Also, some reports that hatcheries are getting sold-out.
