Trapped!!

So true story... My friend 




 was sweet enough to give us some new chickens and so I spent the better part of today reinforcing our coop to avoid another chicken massacre repeat of 2015. So after doing such a good job and installing a self latching latch I somehow locked myself in the coop with these 3 girls for almost 30 minutes. No phone, no tools, no kids around to save me. Just some useless hens and dogs who are apparently not trained to undo latches (I am blaming Brent). I considered yelling for neighbors but that is just too embarrassing to explain when they find you. I might have died but thankfully my construction staples are not so strong as to keep me locked up forever. Hallelujah free at last!!

More Backyard Hens

Of course there was a flock of 20 something loose hens running around the Heights. That is just where we live. My friend and her girls wrangles up most of them and donated them to Wabash, but then there were 3 more left. I told her I would take them meaning I had to reinforce the coop after the last "Great Chicken Massacre of 2015". Why am I such a sucker for projects?
