Chicken Update

We have a date with a butcher, and the chickens will soon be lunch (or dinner.)

It's still a couple of weeks off, but we did decide to turn our chickens into meat.  They've done even worse this week -- averaging 4 to 5 eggs a day. Their time is past.

We plan to purchase 10 more chickens after this batch is gone. Then in the spring, we'll get 10 more. We hope we will then have 2 miniflocks and will not have to get rid of them all at once.

We hope our chickens are tasty. They are a little old. They are organically fed and have wandered freely in their pen. They have lived a happy life for chickens and I hope will provide tasty and nutritious meals for our family.
