Surviving Minnesota!

So they built a chicken coop on "Ask This Old House" for a lady in Connecticut. it was an ok coop, but very small, and then they put 6 nest boxes in there for a coop that can maybe hold 3 chickens. didn't see a roost either. Then, they built a really nice pen, but used chicken wire instead of hardware cloth. not gonna keep anything out of there... they should have done some research on this site first,

Good evening all! I got some last minute tickets to drive up and see the gophers men's hockey team play tonight compliments of my employer. I picked up my dad on the way and it made for a great night. I enjoy father son bonding time
 
Who is looking forward to 55F on Saturday?

Me! Although I'm guessing we'll be cooler than the Banana Belt down there.

Looks like it should accommodate exactly 1 standard hen. She'll have a lot of nest boxes to poo in though....LOL. but alas I see they did their homework for their 3 standard hens *sarcasm*. I bet that coop cost her a boat load of money too. Stupid.

BC, I know how much you want warmer weather and a little sun. I have a deal and a half for you.

Juts bring your boots and come on down, actually you could wear flip flops, if you want/ I will give you the opportunity to enjoy the warmth and soak up some of our Banana Belt sun as you push the wheelbarrows full of chicken poop to the compost pile. Of course, you will have to fill the wheelbarrow first,

Consider this a twofer, You will get good exercise and fun the sun! If you have a favorite shovel or fork bring it. I will graciously supply a beverage of your choosing as long as it is an off brand pop or a Mike's. Limit one Mikes per person per day. I do not want to be responsible for any accidents or expenses you may incur driving home after 2 or more Mikes. ( besides Mikes are kind of spendy for us old retired guys).

I love it!!!


I thought I was the only one that had PITA's! Could you send me a dozen of those eggs? I want to check them for variation and see how they fit into my egg cartons. Please package them really well. I want to check the air sacs to see what they look like also...
