The Lazy Organizer: This is sad and wrong.

This is sad and wrong.

Hopefully the photos are working now. Can you tell me why blogger changes the html when I publish some of my posts? I'm especially having the hardest time with the videos I put on my blog. Why? Why would they want to make my life more difficult in this way? What did I ever do to them?

Did anyone go watch the chicken video? Click on the link below, watch the video and tell me what you think.

Ok. I am never eating store bought chicken or eggs again. Maybe.

Vegan anyone?

Definitely something to think about.

These photos don't convey how much fun we've had with these chickens. When they're not trying to kill each other or peck our toes off we love them. Kind of like kids.

I'm glad you're enjoying your chickens. Do you have a rooster too?

I think I'd love it at first, love the eggs then get tired of it. Bears tend to break in and eat the chickens here.

In one year, you will have 60 chickens, crapping on your back step. They will occasionally crawl under the house and die, usually just before your child's birthday party, and the smell will be quite an experience for your guests. Eggs will be hidden everywhere for miles. You will curse the day you ever thought keeping chickens would be a good idea! Doooom! Doooom!
