The Ladies

This is Marigold, my biggest fattest girl. :)

Eggs!

Eggs! I'm getting an average of about 3 per day from my 4 hens.

Hmm...

Do I, or do I not want chickens? And if I do, do I want them now, or next year? Hmm... These are the things I daydream about at night, when it's too dark to work in the garden. They have welded wire mesh on sale at Ollie's. It seems like a good time to build a coop. But I'm leery of getting into another project right now, especially one that involves living beings. But I love eggs, and I'm pretty sure they could do wonders for the grubs that occasionally plague me.

Also on the vague plan list? A bat house or two, for mosquito control. And a beehive, for pollination and honey.
