Backyard Chickens- Cheaper than therapy.

Safety first. Just kidding, Coffee first. Safety's like 3rd or 4th.

Monday AGAIN? I can't face it without my coffee.

Noah called...he said you're on your own.

We're not coming out until the coffee is ready.

I just washed my hair and can't do a THING with it!

Love the before and after pics! My hens are now giving enough eggs that I need a basket. Would love to win

We get our first chickens on May 23rd… should be eggs soon afterward. An egg collection basket would be awesome!

Before we had backyard chickens, I decorated my kitchen with a chicken theme, complete with chicken wallpaper border and chicken footprints running all over the walls. It looks just like the prints in our cement porch post.
In the wallpaper border there is a wire basket of eggs. I've been looking for one to go with it. At first I was going to put plastic eggs inside. A decade later, I have a coop and run in the backyard! Now we could put real eggs collected from our own hens in it.
