10.20.19 - Chickens

Grandpa and Grandma have had chickens now for about 4 years. We have eight currently. Their accommodations haven't always been the best... or the most secure. We have quite a few predators around the house - coyotes, raccoons, bobcats and owls. Raccoons are the worst. They will kill all of the chickens just for sport.

We are currently constructing a permanent, dedicated chicken coop just a bit NE of our horse barn. It will be large enough to be converted to a shed some day if we ever decide to not have chickens anymore.

The weather has been quite wet the last week, slowing progress down. The plan for tomorrow is to get the rafters and roof on. I will be in Henderson Tues-Thur visiting your great grandpa Cal.
