Busy Builder

I haven't blogged for a couple of days because I've been busy building a Chicken Tractor. If you're wondering what that is you can see one here. Mine's a 5x8 A frame and it's taken me 3 days to build it. As soon as I"m completely finished (which will be in the next hour because I'm picking up Sally and Betty, our new hens, at 11:30) I will post some pics.

You will definitely have to post pictures! (I am a friend of Annie's FYI) We have been raising 5 baby hen's (fingers crossed there isn't a rooster in the mix) for about 1 month it has been fun, but we are definitely going to need a tractor, so I would love to see your plan.

p.s. There is a really great wesite called Backyard chickens, for info on raising chickens, it has been a lifesaver! Good Luck!
Oh, and if you want you can check out our chicken coop, I should be posting it in a week or two on our J&C blog

Now you really can call that house of yours a "compound". I think a golf cart should be your next addition:)

Wow! This will be some good material to blog about. Having chickens sounds like an adventure to me. My sister wants to get some. I'll have to forward her some of this info. :)
