Remember When I Said There Are 2 Things ...

that I always long for this time of the year ..well as you remember the first was a greenhouse..but the other is chickens!

This is the season for adorable baby chicks.

..that grow up into some of the most interesting characters..

..but without a sufficient hen house, any chickens we would have would be taken by a rather large hawk population we have in our area.

Okay - so I had to laugh when I saw this picture. I LOVE details, but don't think that any hen house we may own in the future will include a fancy light fixture like this one!

..but Oh - the bounty!

G'morning, Julie...so sorry i've not been by in awhile. We've been so busy around here and I've fallen behind in visiting.
Fist off, how is your handsome hunk doing? I hope he is feeling lots better. Tell him hi for me and that anytime he wants to be a PINK SATURDAY HUNK again, all he has to do is send me a photo of himself....WEARING PINK!! lol

My daughter wants some chickens so so bad. She, too, has to have a hen house first. Hoping she can get one soon. Now, if she sees this photo, she is gonna want a chandy for her chicken house, too! haha..cute!!

We have lived here on our farm for 13 years and I have always wanted chickens. But so far no chickens, we got cows first, then came the horse and now a donkey. years ago on another farm we had chickens and ducks, wonderful eggs to cook with; I miss them.
Fancy light in the chicken house, NOT! It sure won't stay clean for long! LOL

Oh, I want some baby chicks. And a miniature donkey too. Strange dreams for someone in the middle of the suburbs!

Hi Julie,
Love your blog and animals.Been here before but couldn't leave message.
Embarrassed to admit I finally left e-mail,however computer went to default mode and left husband's e-mail address instead.You ended up e-mailing him and he was soooo confused.
Good news! Bought my very own computer this past weekend.
Long time writer, brand new blogger.I pray my memory is correct but I believe you said you had been told you over-share.Your response was you wrote from the heart.A kindred spirit!! That's the only way I know to write. That is the only way to find your own truth. I pray my poor memory is firing today. If not, well I've made a fool of myself with you twice.Good thing I learned long ago
how to laugh at myself!
Would love for you to visit me at mysticequus.blogspot.com
Blessings,
Terri Baker
