There was an article in the paper yesterday that made me do a happy dance when I read it. Our city has passed an ordinance that will help me take up a hobby that will help my anemia and maybe help me earn a small amount of cash on the side.
Two words: Backyard Chickens
*squee* So I have enough yard to build a small coop and house four hens. My father is already knocking around building plans, but I want to do it on my own. My mother remains skeptical, but does agree the poop would be great for the garden and fresh eggs from chickens that scratch in grass and eat bugs would be better.
So this spring...maybe I'll get to bring home some chickies when Tractor Supply has "Chick Days". *happy dance* I wanted to homestead...so why wait until I move into the country? A quarter acre can mean four chickens and a big vegetable garden, and that's a darn good start!
