The Blessings have been asking for a pet for a long time, and like any good momma would do;I quickly change the subject.

Well, last week we got a call from a friends asking if we wanted two rabbits? I called the Papa~ Blessing hoping he would close that door really quick. Instead he says.."It's up to you Babe" Really? That's alot of pressure for one momma to take. Don't you think?

Which brings me here! Chickens! I was thinking about it... and it couldn't be a better fit. The kids get their pet (s) , I get a cute little out~building on the back 40 and we get a return for it all...EGGS!

We had chickens which we LOVED, but just gave them away last week because of the move... they are fun.

Had friends in Villa Park who kept chickens. They even had some that laid eggs with green and blue shells. Instant Easter eggs all year. They were delish too

Awesome!!!!! I think it sounds like a perfect compromise. Are the Blessings going to get a training in how to clean the ckn coop? Or is that going to be MaMa Blessings job? I am picturing a Pink shabby chic coop w/ rod iron & White wash bench on the ckn coops wrap around patio... Can't wait to hear all about it!
