Egg-stra, Egg-stra, Chicken Ranch Makes Front Page News!

The Chicken Ranch made the front page of our local newspaper a few weeks ago! I was contacted by a local reporter via FaceBook who wanted to know what it was like to raise chickens in an urban setting and if I had noticed more people doing the same.

I know of at least three other backyard flocks within a 10 block radius of our urban “ranch” and I suspect that there are many more.

It’s been a while since I’ve blogged, but all is well here on the ranch! Our building projects of last spring and summer are long completed and I am knee deep in gardening again. More updates on the ranch and the garden to come soon. For now, enjoy this fine article from the Coeur d’Alene Press! http://bit.ly/cdapress_chix

    Thanks! If only I didn't have to work for a living (which involves sitting at a computer all day) – I'd be posting all the time. LOL. Thanks for continuing to follow – and your comments, much appreciated!
