Spring is here!

I have proof of Spring. It's not just wishful thinking anymore. My chickens have laid their first egg!!! Yeah for chickens!

We also got 67 new chicks to raise up for the school. (IFA had them for 50% off) They can stay in the garage until a coop is built at the school, they get too big for their box, or they start to smell too much. Either of those could get them banished from the garage, but we'll wait and see.


For right now, we're just trying to keep them from being frozen when Gpa leaves the garage door open for his dog to go in and out, or eaten by the same beforementioned dog. So far, so good.

The dog and I have an understanding. I look at him and he cowers and runs away. Works for me! LOL!

Well, except when he sneaks in the house and I try to get him out. Then his cowering and running away makes it impossible for me to catch him and get him out. Gpa is the only one who can get him to go outside and he's non too quick about it. He feels so bad for his poor little poochie who has to stay in the garage! Poor baby!

But, I digress! We were talking about chickens. We have aplenty! Soon we'll have aplenty of eggs as well. So if anyone needs some, call me! :)
