You should be so proud of yourself, well done. Apart from the fact you are not supporting the growth of "food factories" you are raising healthy, happy birds and providing you and your family with the best thing out...fresh, chemical free food.
I am keen to get some chickens, but my husband is not so sure. He asked me if we would be eating any and who was going to "do the deed". I said I would deal with it...but he wasn't too keen on that!
