Our Chickens

We started out with 6 chickens about three years ago. We are now down to just 1 and probably won't get any more. They are a great source of entertainment, make wonderful eggs occasionally, but unfortunately the ROI is upsidedown.

The Chicken Coop and Run

We built the coop in the garage and realized it was too high to get it out through the door. We had to tip it over on it's side in order to get it out. Then we put sled runners under the legs and towed it across the back yard. Once in place, we put up the chainlink surround, which was two dog runs stiched together, added a roof, and good to go.

Chicken Herding

Liam had great fun trying to herd the chickens. He was pretty good at it.
