Well I have two chickens...is 5 nesting boxes enough?!

I should be getting more in July and plan to build up in small batches until I have as many as I think seems OK. I love building stuff and couldn't bring myself to build something modest!

My chicken photos are here:

It just gets better and better. When I saw the first picture, I thought "Oh, brother!"; then I started liking it more and more. Now I can't wait to see the finished product. Good going!
