Our niece Beth and her husband Nick were looking for a place to raise chickens this summer.  They asked us if they could put them out in the pasture behind the cows.  Chickens like flies and bugs, so we thought this would be a good way to cut down on some of the pests that bother the cows- and they will be fertilizing the fields also.   Besides, in return we will get a few chickens for the freezer.  A win-win situation!   It is a unique idea-  they built moveable pens  that are moved once a day so they always have “fresh” (if you know what I mean) food every day.   So, the chickens were put into the pens this week and now the fun begins!  Good luck to Beth and Nick on your project!!  I can almost taste fresh chicken on the grill…..
