| fresh grass = happy hens |

| the red twins really love our fruit and veggie scraps |

| and the ducks (the white ones are our two males, unfortunately) |
We have been setting up a small chicken wire fence outside of the coop and letting our birds out during the day to get a little more open grass and feeling of freedom. We can't let them truly free range because the dogs would eat them, so this is a small step in a better direction. We are in the process of ordering an electro poultrynet which will give them MUCH more room to roam. They love fresh grass, bugs (we watched red take down a huge praying mantis today), their swimming pool, and our leftover fruit and veggie scraps.
Caring for this small flock of poultry gives me a lot of joy,
you can't be in a bad mood watching them.
Live simply,
Angela and Jonathan
