Step Right up...

Sorry about being late, but we have been very busy, busy, busy. I've been researching which chicken breeds would thrive here. Yogi is reading over my shoulder,
"Chickens, uh, I like chickens. Tastes like chicken."
And the garden has come alive with chard and lettuce, and the tomatoes are ripening on the vine.
"Hey, get back to the chickens", Yogi whimpers in my ear.
I plan to add chickens to our compound and rabbits, and maybe goats too.
"Ooooh, rabbits, tastes like chicken", Yogi is drooling on my shoulder.
Anyway, that is the goal, I'm just trying to decide about whether to have a coop or tractor for the chick...
"Chickens! I love chickens!!" Okay, Yogi, we all know you like chicken.
Calm down and stop dancing the cha-cha. The difference is that a tractor is like a movable house for the...shhh,...chickens. This gives you "free range" with out so much predator trouble. Then I will need to order the varieties. Some layers and some meat-chickens...
"MEAT ! Yup, chickens have tasty meat. Can I have some?"
He is so cute when he tilts his head that way. So now I'm headed back to the garden for some veggies,,,
"Yuck! I don't like veggies",
It is okay Yogi, I won't make you eat them. Peace and love to you all....
