Btw - where do you get your milk from? And by 'pure' do you mean raw?

I buy my milk from Calder Dairy. They have a store in Lincoln Park and also offer home delivery. By "pure", I mean that they don't strip the milk down and then add stuff to build it back up. At least that is how I understand it.
Raw milk can only be obtained if you own a cow share. That is something that I would like to find.

Such cute Chicks! (I'm not sure, being a newbie yet and all, but I think chicks have something to do with Chicken Math!

LOL!)

Raz, cute canaries! I sure don't know anything about canary varieties, but Cal is male and Hobbs needs a more girly name. Did I mention that they're cute? Mary

Couldn't believe my luck when I spotted a chicken tractor on craigslist for $20 so I quick messaged them to see if I could get it and they answer back apologizing that it got stolen over night. :-( I just don't understand people sometimes.

Nice Canaries Raz! =)

Have you looked into a lock for your gates to keep the trespassers out?

The gate has a lock. Not a strong one, but it was broken anyway. They also took my "No Trespassing" sign.
