Good for the kids.....

Raising chickens has been a wonderful experience for us. To see them grow from one day old chicks to egg laying hens is amazing. It has also been a learning experience for our children. They are excited every morning to go let the chickens out of their coop and even more excited now that there is an occasional egg in the nest for them to bring inside. Much like a horse or cows, tending to livestock brings you closer to nature. You get to see the sun rise and the sun set. You can feel the cool breeze and hot humidity as you care for your outdoor pets. I am quite sure my children will remember these times their  whole life. I am glad to be a part of it......
