Ty and I have been raising chickens for about eight months or so.

We had kind of rough start keeping them alive and away from

friendly little critters. But we have done very well on this bunch.

Ty built the little cage first until we had the time to build the way

he wanted. Now he has rearranged and slid the two cages together

to connected them from inside so the chickens have more room

when they are locked up. We let them out during the day to roam

the whole fenced in area. We got Big Red Chicken from a coworker

and she has been laying for quite some time. But within the last

three weeks we have four other chickens that have started to lay.

We get three to four eggs a day which helps with buying groceries.

Now we just need a cow and a gas machine and we would be set.
