Going Full Hippie

These are chickens.

Six Rhode Island Reds to be exact. They have taken up residence in a corner of my living room and are happily peeping away. 

I completely blame Morgan.

My kids are over the moon excited. (I'm pretty excited too...) We're looking at plans to build a chicken coop, and hopefully, within a few months, we'll be able to send the girls out first thing in the morning to collect the eggs. 

We're also planting phase one of our garden on Monday.

So, go for it. Best "hippie" joke wins. As far as I'm concerned, all I'm missing are some dreads, birkenstocks, and maybe a goat.

  1. So fun! We got our chicks last Easter Sunday and by August they were laying. We love having them. Welcome to the "hippie" life. LOL

    Did you miss me? {Okay, that was part of a Tony Stark/Iron Man line from "The Avengers". Very cocky and self-centered, actually!!} Well, I have been missing in action so to speak around everybody's Blogs lately. I'm baaaack!! Did you miss me? Hee, hee, hee.... ;)
    Look at those cute little downy chicks!! Sweet!! My sister took care of some friends' chicks one Independence Day as they were on vacation. She brought them home. I held one. "Her" feathers were so very soft!! One downy chick in particular was quite the little troublemaker!! "He" continuously escaped his box. I grew very fond of him!! ;-D
    I haven't any hippie jokes in mind. Not yet!! I actually love hippies!! ;)
