Chickens are Coming

Yes! My brother, Joe is donating 6 chickens. They will be free-range, but I am thinking of starting them out in the goat pen with nest boxes and roosts in the shelter. Then I can open the gate during the day to let them (and the goats) graze. Or make a "chicken door" in the back of the shelter for the days that I want to keep the goats in.
I am ready for some FRESH eggs!

So exciting!! We had chickens when I was little and I remember going in to collect the eggs. It's one of my favorite memories.
