I am so tempted by the bielefelder pair on RBA!

Go for it!

Well, had a small chat with hubby about the future new chicken house he offered me. He now says he doesn't recall saying that. I pointed out that it doesn't matter if he remembers...I Do! But I reminded him that I don't want it this year. I'm planning ahead. So I think I'll have him take one small section of pasture, and build a "strip mall" type sectioned set of breeder pens. It'll be easier to care for later, and in the long run easier to build than nickel-and-diming together individual pens. And I can also use them to separate any birds I want in show condition. A 5x6 section of coop for each breeder group would work okay, with a run. And if I can get him to build enough sections, then I can keep grass growing. And they can still rotate back into the free range groups, so everyone will get pasture time.

Whatchathink?

I think you're lucky. My Mr. is insisting on spending money on his hobby (rebuilding a bronco) this summer, since I got chicken stuff last summer.

I am certainly lucky in my Mr., that's for sure! I've held on to that one for over 30 years!

Start serving him the old parts he strips off for breakfast and see if his attitude changes.

Quote: I'll have to ask mine if he wants eggs for breakfast or spent shotgun shells? Mine hunts birds (Pheasant, Grouse, etc), but they get to be alot more expensive than my "birds" because of shells, driving time & gas, lodging, going out for food, liscenses, shells(you get the picture)
