Chickens added to our Little Farm



I have wanted chickens ever since I was a wee lad. Now that we live far out from any city we can have almost any animal we want. So I got Chickens. 3 Rhode Island Reds and 2 Auracanas that lay blue eggs. When we bought this house we were lucky to have on our property a chicken coop and one small cage. I have them in the cage now and when they get big enough they will live in the coop and eat all our bugs. We decided not to name them because it is harder to eat them when you know their name. If all goes well we will have some fresh blue and brown eggs in 16-22 weeks. Notice thew hungry cat in the first picture. She wants to eat them.
