The Adventure Chickens
|
In August
2006 we
built a chicken coop and got a small flock of chickens. |
|
|
|
Thanks Deb and Charlie for the
design and construction help! |
|
We read that free
range chickens typically stay within100 yards of their coop. The
Adventure Chickens didn't read that book and we've even caught them up
at the road, hitching rides into town. The Rhode Island Red hen and the two Black Stars are the most
adventuresome, with the Dominique close on their tails. She's a
funny little hen who likes
telling us ALL about her travels and if we could understand
"chicken", we might be able to glean clues as to where she's
laid her egg each day ;-). |

The roost is attached with removable pegs for easy cleaning. |
The chicken door drops down to the inside to become a ramp. |
With a pulley system so you can open and close the ramp door from the outside. |

We got 5 eggs the first day! |
