In This Crazy Life...

Let me begin by saying I hate snakes, like deathly afraid of them, like I don't even like looking at pictures of them. So I freaked out when I opened the coop one morning to get the eggs and this snake greeted me with an egg in it's mouth. Yes I know it's not a poisonous snake and I probably should have tried to relocate it, but I was scared and it was eating my chicken eggs. I was wondering why they all of a sudden weren't really laying eggs anymore. This is why. They were getting eaten before I could collect them.     I purchased this day bed frame from Wayfair for the office. I managed to get it put together.  

My sweet god-sister graduated High School! And because she is so cute....  

I finally got chickens!! A friend gave them to me because she moved into the city limits and could not take them with her. I volunteered to take them since I've been wanting some.    This is the picture she sent of the coop. I told her I needed the coop too because I have way too many projects going to add building a coop to the list. I will need to level it and add to the run, but it's a good start. Mom and dad came up to help me move it. He had to take the egg box off along with the doors and walls of the hen house. Once most of the weight was off we used the dolly to roll it out of the gate.  My first egg! She couldn't even wait until the coop was put back together.       They have plenty of room to roam and bugs to eat.  I'm excited to see what the chicken life is all about.
