The
Chicken’s Page
|
As noted on the Chicken Archeologist
page, a feral chicken happened by our front garden herb patch in 2004. We
named her Ginger and got two more chickens, Angel & Roxy, soon
afterwards. |

and Roxy hopefully teaching themselves to use the compost barrel for a
toilet, as Ginger offers encouragement. |

good view of the right front door of the coop. The windows are Lexan. |

The
chickens sleep up on the perch bar, which is the handle from an old shovel.
The hopper on the left is full of pellets and hen scratch. The flooring in here
is a old car mat. The sidewall is translucent Plexiglas. |
The
chickens slept in this section of the coop at first, but now just lay their
eggs in here. |

Got
two new chicks on April 21. This is them on April 30, around 5 weeks old. A
Rhode Island Red and a Black something. |
When
we had the chicks out in the chicken area (inside a cage), Roxy made some
strange ‘intruder alert’ noise. |
