Kimya Dawson - “Chickens in the Garden”
Just a short and sweet little song about chickens to hopefully lend a bit of extra sunshine to your day.
Insulated Strawbale Chicken House
For every problem there is a solution. In this case it was building a strawbale chicken coop with enough insulation to muffle the early morning crowing.
Permaculture Leaf Shredding
The situation: We have an over-abundance of oak leaves every Fall. We have a shortage of good topsoil on this rocky Ozark hilltop year-round. How to use one problem to solve the other? Why, chickens of course.
NOTE: Not vegan or vegetarian friendly.
