Call Me Mrs. Farmer Beavers!

It’s official!  Mountain life has gotten to me.  Last Sunday I acquired 5 hens and 1 rooster!  Mr. Farmer Beavers (Randy) and his father graciously built me a very nice chicken coop for my new chickens.  I’ve had to make an adjustment in my schedule in the morning and in the evening, but so far so good!  The girls are only 6 mths old so they are not really laying eggs yet, but one of them lays one per day.

I’ve tried for 3 years to talk Randy into letting me have chickens.  I finally wore him down!  🙂  I’ll keep you updated!
