We finally updated our coop run door! We wanted a side door that we could open from outside the run. Instead of buying one, we decided to make our own custom door. Since my husband is a Carpenter by day,(and DIY master in my opinion) he knew exactly how to make something work, and a fun one of a kind conversation piece!

Meet my Chicken Monday
(Yes I’m a day late, but it was a holiday, ok?!)🐥🐣🐥🐣🐥🐣🐥
This is Ferrgie, she is a four week old white americana pullet. You probably noticed she has a crooked beak we’re not sure how she got it, we noticed it when she was about a week old. Her handicap beak has never seemed to hold her back!She’s always one of the first out of the coop and first to hop up on my lap!

A couple of weeks ago we moved our 26 chicks into The run with our two older ladies April and MayMay. They have been enjoying life outdoors and I think the older ladies are enjoying the company. They Definitely rule the roost, but they care for the little ones like mother hens in training! When it starts to rain or it’s getting dark they heard the little chicks inside. Inside the coop April and May May Shera snack and I snuggle with a little chicks before moving up to a higher roost. The little ones usually stay on the ground or a few snuggle up together in nesting boxes, A couple of checks haven’t even started roosting on some of the lower levels.
We started this new adventure a little over two months ago when my husband came home with a handful of chickens from Rural King. One of his friends had just Started a flock and He decided to surprise me with chickens! UnfortunatelyOh my two out of the five first set of hatchlings. But I was already hooked! We ordered a rare assortment from Mt healthy hatchery’s, A few Weeks later we received a very nice diverse mixture of healthy chicks! We are raising some To go to my grandmothers farm once they are big enough to go in with her mature flock. Will be keeping about 15 along with our new Bantams!
More videos coming soon be sure to follow us to watch our flock grow!

Yesterday afternoon we decided to put A little roost in for the chickie babies, Just to see what they do and let them try it out. Within five seconds this little girl already found her way up there. She always has to be the star of the show! They were all intrigued and playing around, When I realized they were small enough to still fit through the larger holes that we haven’t covered with chicken wire I took it out. Will just keep it for playtime right now, until I’m not so worried about the girls escaping, Or falling and hurting themselves.

What’s it really like to have a yard full of chickens?

Follow our journey & watch our flock grow, as we learn, love, and laugh on this new adventure!

Eastern Kentucky born and raised, Karah grew up on a farm with Grandparents who spoiled her with just about any pet she wanted! After settling into her new life in the city with husband Brandon, she realized how much growing up with animals shaped who she is today, she always wanted to give her kids a taste of that experience too. Then, one day her city husband went a little country, and showed up with baby chicks!

Follow Karah and Brandon’s journey on Facebook and Instagram as they try a new approach to urban homesteading with a vegetarian-friendly twist!
