We got our first egg today!
I'm almost finished with the Pullet Palace complex. I put up a 4'x4' patio for shade and to keep the feeder dry. They are enjoying it, as evidenced by the amount of chicken crap on the roof. I still need to make a hanger for the drinker. It leaks if it isn't perfectly level, I'm still trying to get the hang of the chicken industry lingo. I don't know why a device that dispenses food is called a "feeder" while the thing that dispenses water is a "drinker." It should either be feeder and waterer or eater and drinker. The birds have been no help in my quest to understand this mystery. Mrs WD says I think too much.
A proud mom shows off our first egg.
