Chickens- Week 13

The chickens have been eating a lot of treats this week.  My parents garden has been producing some massive zucchini because, well honestly everyone has had their share of squash!  As a result our chickens have had lots of yummy treats.  Not much has changed other than the fact that we hear the rooster crow much more often.  hopefully were only about a month out from getting eggs?  I sure hope so anyway.

3. We love what we do.  We really love to work.  Outside, in the sun, in the garden, around the animals or in the kitchen.  We enjoy it!
