  1. So happy the coop is raised offering some protection & the run has a tarp cover as well, because their #Chookesties were NOT amused about the weather today (downpours with rain falling at 45 degrees thanks to the wind).

  2. It felt like a splurge adding a €45 tray to their #Chookesties #Chookingham Palace (aka, the chicken coop), but it makes cleaning it a breeze, less than 5 minutes!

    Raking their run and filling the feeder & water adds 10 minutes. That means complete weekly maintenance is anywhere from 5 mins to 15 minutes.

  3. Random chicken thoughts:

    - Baby (wyandotte) has the most adorable purring

    - Betty is a bit of a complainer, and her distressed squawks are very sad

    - Bonnie is a jumper and seems to be the most adventurous too (approaching feeding hands the most). She actually stepped on my feet & circled between my legs the other night when they got stuck out and I went to let them in.

    - As a city person, I never know how freaking soft chickens are.

    - I am kinda jealous of all those videos with hens that love to snuggle up to their human

    - I have already pretty much asked that the next hens be raised from chicks at home (so hopefully they are more used to being handled) and probably all Wyandottes because they're so adorable.
