More new chickies!

Easter chickies are here! We decided to round out our city flock by adding four more birds to the crew. We now have four egg layers and four broilers. The broilers will be ready in 6-8 weeks, or so says Google. :) I'll let you know how it goes. The 8 hens puts us right at the edge of the law. Seattle city municipal code allows 8 chickens per household. It's nice to live in a place that is so welcoming to a more sustainable way of life. I just can't believe the amount of food these four chickens will provide for us at only $1.99 each!
