It's A Chicken World!

The chickens have been moved into their home for a while now but, it has not been as 'homey" as we would have liked. Work has slowly progressed in perfectly our chicken raising technique.
Dave got some pretty amazing paint that the kiddos and I applied. They were painting away and managed to get most of it on the coop and not on themselves.
Conner is very fond of painting as it allows full expression of his love of art.

Here are some pictures of the coop post-paint. It was scorching hot outside as we finished painting. Too bad you can't feel that through the photos.
Dave has been doing quite a bit of research in ways to make sure the chickens are kept in fresh food and water. He discovered a way to turn a garbage can into an amazingly simple feeder. The white is PVC and the chickens just poke their heads in.
No spilled food and I can put over 60 lbs of food in and just let it be.



















Finally, here are the ladies themselves. All huddled up and ready for evening to fully descend.
