Chickens!

Well, we now have chickens running about the farmyard... as any good farm should, I suppose. Only I never thought I see it here, because Kris was so dead set against it! I mean she was adamant - absolutely NO chickens!

But once we started eating the neighbors produce (great brown eggs, fresh chicken for the roaster ...) she decided she had to have some.

So she cleaned out the old chicken coop in the east pasture, and with Kevyn's help built some nests and roosts. He brought over six hens, and lo, we're in the poultry business...

How, indeed?

For how can a man die better,
Than facing fearful odds,
For the ashes of his fathers,
And the temples of his Gods.
