Chickens are awesome, with such odd and interesting personalities. First thing I did when I bought my first house was order chicks, which arrived here three days after I did.
A few weeks later, I painted the front door purple. Haven't regretted any of it!
Although.... I came home after dark last night and discovered that three of my hens weren't in the coop and had somehow escaped their fenced yard. After searching around, I found one outside and two in the garage. Today's chore: find their escape route and close it up. *
sigh*
No rest for the wicked!
