Well I was just going to hatch some eggs--as a homeschool project--and then give the chicks back to the lady with the eggs. 12(yes, only 12 so far but since I was originally keeping 0, it seems like a big number) chickens later (only one and a half month later) my dh is struggling to build a coop that will work for them instead of finishing the deck he was working on first!!!! Must be true love!
