Another day in the life



Another day in the life...
Chickens who like things their way- Ameraucaunas and Phoenix...

A step forward as the dishwasher isn't perfect, but IS working...

THe chickens are coming back into production well, with the beautiful variety of eggs and colors in pinks, browns, tans, greens and even white!

Gotta love those Arizona sunsets.  We often find ourselves outside working until the last glow of the orange evening sun disappears to the West.

And sometimes even a little beyond

Those few holdout chickens who refuse to be in a coop, despite the owl frequenting our area.  They must have a good watch sysem going though, because these eight birds are still untouched after being the only ones out for four weeks.  After a little more reinforcing in the big pen, though  these, too, will be made to stay in the safety of the large pens we have here.

See the egg on the right?  Even with the cracks, it will do fine in the fry-pan for me, the membranes aren't broken, so I will be getting a little more protein!

So yes, another day in the life around here, along with driving and homework and trying to train that puppy!  But I wouldn't trade this crazy life!
