First weekend on the urban farm – HAH!
Warning: this post has a few videos.
We got our chickens on Thursday! There have been some adventures, which I may expound upon later (but if you’re a friend of mine on facebook, you’ve probably already seen most of them), but today I have some videos & photos for you!
First off, not chicken related, I have house pictures and a video tour by my hubby!
The video tour (my husband is a dork, we get up close and personal with my face at one point – don’t ask me why. Even he doesn’t remember anymore. And this is kinda long – almost 5 minutes):
The chickens (facebook album) – one chicken met its demise this week before we were able to pick them up, so it’s only five now.
And a couple videos for you (also taken by hubby – and these are much shorter than the house one).
Unfortunately, between all the chicken adventures, I haven’t gotten any writing done this week. I might get some done this evening, we’ll see.
LOL! Nice place.
Your cat looks like he’s thinking “Lunch?”
(Isn’t moving so fun?! *chuckles*)
hehe, both cats had that look on their face at some point over the whole weekend
. Thanks!
That has be interesting having chickens for the “Urban Farm”. Very cool
I really want a dairy goat, but the city ordinances won’t allow it for our 1/4 acre, and I don’t know the neighbors well enough yet to try and get away with it anyway, lol. Oh well . . .
I love being nosy.
My wife doesn’t read my blog either.
haha, yeah, spouses are definitely off in their own little world sometimes . . .
Love these! Your videos were so much fun. And your husband is a hoot! LOL. It was great to see your work in progress and very cool that you’re recording it. I once had to live with a table saw in my living room for six months while hubby tore out the kitchen to the studs and built me new cabinets.
Hubby’s got a . . . unique sense of humor. That’s the only way I know to describe it, lol. And the house video was actually recorded a couple months ago, so there’s been a lot of progress made since then – and we actually have furniture in the house! So, eventually there will be another video and/or round of photos showing the updates

Happy chicken farming!
They look adorable. I expect to find some fresh eggs in my Christmas basket this year…
I should do a walk-through of the house with the video camera. Crazy enough, I never thought of it before now! I should be taking more video in general. Wish my hubby liked doing video and photos like yours does!
congrats on the new house and the chickens. progress is going well, i see. i agree on the chandelier – definitely a keeper. my parents started raising chickens a few years ago and just love it. we now get eggs every time they visit.
Ha ha… I love this! Sounds like fun!
