Born Free

Mark built a “free range” area for the birds to roam within a confined area outside of their pen. This morning he decided to let them run completely free.
I was greeted by these curious faces on my back patio.
Mark is a bit stressed out–over protective if you will–and twice has said, “Well I should lock them up now.” I’ve talked him down a few times and they are still roaming free. He is acting like the father of teenage daughters right now
Life with Mark.
Life with chickens.
PS. My oven broke down! Yes, I’m sad. Times are tough right now, so I bought a little Cuisinart convection counter oven at Costco–I look forward to posting some of the cool things that have come out of it! Plus, I save on my power bill.
Hey Sean! Guess what?

I know you are scared of birds, so for you to say you love the picture is quite a compliment

Thanks Heather, so far, so good! I have roasted a chicken, roasted potatoes, baked some oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and blueberry muffins! I am thinking of attempting bread :/

Great photos!
Do they gather when you shake a food dish at them?

Love the pictures!! The girls are so pretty
I’ve just reconnected with some old friends, who have free range chickens. I love that I now have fresh eggs whenever I want.
Nothing can compare!
