errantemberAs of 3 PM tomorrow, I will officially Have Chickens.
A good deal came up on the local Permaculture group, and I recognized that my endless string of Good Reasons Not to Get Chickens Yet had begun to stink of habit, so I pounced. Originally I was supposed to get them *today*, but luckily my source flaked out a day, so now I have time to engage in helpful chicken-related activities like, say, building a chicken coop, learning how to treat them, thinking about how to prevent my dogs from killing them, etc.
I'm on Back Yard Chickens even as we speak.
My roommate doesn't know yet. Won't he be surprised!
