Twilight Chickens
The girls are all very good at putting themselves to bed now. This is what I saw when I went out to close the coop door. The cuteness is overwhelming.
We spent most of the day waging war against the dandelions in the back yard and preparing for truckloads of mulch. We’re going to be building some raised beds with bird net covered hoops for our gardens this year. The idea came from Renee over at hipchickdigs. This way we can have a system that allows us to let the chickens free range occasionally, without fearing for the safety of our tender vegetables, and also keep them contained within a bed when we want them to help us clear it out and turn the soil.
After the epic dandelion battle, I whipped up some fried rice with the various bits of meat in our refrigerator that were thawed and needed to be cooked. This time it ended up being chicken and halibut, and was delicious.
