It gets tougher and tougher to post things as the weather turns nicer and nicer. It’s a gorgeous, sunny, windless day in the 70s, and hard to stay indoors.
Likewise for my Isa Brown chicks, who today for the first time went exploring down their ramp and into the pen. They were a little awed at first…
But after some quality alone time and then a big bundle of chickweed fresh from the garden, they warmed up to the idea…
The early tomato and onion seedlings got a morning dose of sunshine too…
All’s well with the world.
Are these chickens layers or broilers?

They’re layers Mike. Ida Browns are a breed I’d never even heard of, sold a a local Tractor Supply. Supposed to be great egg birds so we’ll see.

Thanks for the info. A few people in our neighborhood have chickens in the backyard. We’d thought of trying it but it seems like a fair amount of work compared to $1.65 a dozen at the grocery 🙂

Work and money. Has to be a labor of love, I think.

Hmmm, could this be where chickweed got its name?
