The New Coop

We got a new chicken coop a couple of weeks ago. It looks a lot nicer than what Peter created out of an old dogloo and pvc pipe; it's more functional too. The chickens must like it because it only took a day or two in the new coop before we got our first egg.


We now have four chickens. I've delayed writing about our newest addition because we didn't know if we would keep her or not. She is younger than the others and is in her own make-shift house until she gets big enough to defend herself. Now we understand the meaning behind the phrase "pecking order." We've also named all four birds and I've added them to our sidebar.

I love it! What's with the ramp? Is that how they get in and out? Looks like your chickies are livin' in the lap of luxury!
