This installment of Flock Focus Friday is brought to you on Tuesday because after announcing on my Facebook page that my town is suing me for the removal of my chickens, the media got wind of it and have been bogged down with interviews and inquiries ever since. While I am happy to finally get the word out, it has been a time drain. Here’s the scoop in case you missed it on Facebook last week: My town has sued me for the removal of chickens from my backyard & while I am confident in my legal strategy, this 5 year battle fueled by my neighbor has become extremely costly. If I have helped you keep chickens or given you a reason to smile on occasion, please consider a donation of any size to “Operation Home to Roost.” Without my chickens I would have no blog or Facebook page & could not continue to bring you the experiences, photos, information & chicken-related entertainment you have become accustomed to seeing from me.
Questions about the character of my yard, neighborhood and town are answered with this link to Google Street Maps where You can see my property, (it has the kids’ white playhouse/swingset in the backyard) the complaining neighbor’s house to the right of it and drive around town to check out all the farms, horses and chickens!
The argument I made to my town’s zoning commission can be seen and heard in this YouTube video.
We have been enjoying spectacular weather this week, interrupted only briefly by a few passing rain showers. The eagerly awaited dahlias, gladiolas and zinnias are in full bloom at the farm up the street and I stop whenever possible to purchase a dozen. I hope you enjoy the photos from last week!

Listened to the Zoning hearing. Very interesting. Loved the fellow's comment that if King George had tried to limit chicken-keeping there'd be a Right to Keep Chickens Amendment in the Bill of Rights. Maybe it's not too late!
My chicks have this down! The run for the medicine dropper when I put vitamins in their water! Now we just need the fountain! Hint! Hint!
This would be so nice to have for my girls. Thank you for the chance to win.
Need. Water. ?
Just added another 6 hens to our coop! I so want one of these! Love your blog as always!
