This past spring we took the plunge and got some baby chicks. While they grew under their heat lamps, my husband and son set of on a "father/son" project building the coup. Well its nearly finished and the chickens are all moved in and my son who somehow thinks he is the "chicken whisperer" says "They LOVE it!". It is beautiful, my sister jokes and calls it the chicken mansion. It looks more like a little potting shed or cottage, but its just perfect. Its still minus a few details, we are scouring flea markets this summer looking for the perfect vintage light to hang above the door, and the fence is still not up, (although when left out on their own the chickens don't roam far from the safety of the coup). Anyhow we are loving raising our chickens and expect them to be mature enough by the end of summer to start giving us eggs!! Looking forward to future breakfasts in our little home.
