Nutso Idea


Jason, Here is the picture of the chicken coop I want to build. The coop doesn't have to be this fancy...it can be negotiated...what it looks like that is, but I do want to get a chicken. I am tired of buying eggs. I want to get them from our chickens. You think I am joking hon, but I am not. Your mom said it would be good fertilizer next to the garden..I want do one of those too. Just call me domestic-chicken-garden-lady. It will be fun. And I don't think they will stink cause I have a sensitive nose. And if chickens are cheap then lets do it and if its a bad idea we can eat them :) . Come on, what do you think?

(I know you had chickens growing up and think they are gross and smelly, but I am pretty persistent! So watch out! Cause I really am putting flames on my mini-van too some day)

I actually don't think you are so crazy for wanting chickens. I have thought of doing the same thing when I someday get a yard. It's great food storage (eggs I mean, not meat) and they aren't too hard to care for. And I had them as a kid also, and was "in charge" of them. Just get a few though, cuz they fight and bite each others necks until they bleed. And they will probably bite at you also. Or maybe I just had mean ones. And they do stink. Okay, maybe it's not a good idea after all. HA HA.....

You crack me up. Don't know if I would want to take care of chickens. But hey maybe I will buy eggs from you and you can make some money in the process.
