Lucky Dou (Our Chickens)

For those of you who followed my blog, then you already know that we bought some little chicks before in an attempt to raise them for eggs. Out of all twelve of them, we only have two lucky chickens left. We are hoping these two will survive and will make it all the way through the laying eggs stage so we could have a taste of some fresh eggs before we move to a new place. Raising chickens is not something that is new to me because when I was in high school we were raising chickens as part of our school project. That was the first time I learned how to butcher a chicken and that was not fun at all.

Anyway, these chickens are not raised for meat just purely for fresh eggs because I can never eat these two cuties. They are so funny when they walk around the yard looking for something to eat and they would usually chase each other because the other one wants to have what the other chicken has. They're like competing against each other on who gets the best food first or something, and yet they are so sweet because they miss each other, they hang out together in our yard and they sleep together. Just so cute! Our dog Spink doesn't seem to bother them at all, but on the other hand, our little man gets too excited and wants to terrorize them all the time. I know! Don't worry, the chickens have gotten used to Harley messing with them.

Anyway, here are some photos of what's going on in our yard so far. Sorry, more yard photos again. 

 Not the best looking garden this year unlike the past few years we've been gardening, but it works and it provides us some fresh vegetables for sure.

 Broccoli.

We don't just have worms to worry about, but a family of rabbits are also helping themselves to our garden. Oh well! We don't spray any harsh chemicals to our garden not even using any fertilizer, so this is as organic as you can get.

Freshly harvested collard green, chard and onions.

I made some veggie soup that night and it was good! 

Have a great and safe Memorial weekend, everyone!!!
