A little over a year between working with the city council to pass a backyard chicken ordinance and actually getting them! The girls we originally wanted from our local farm had 40 of them slaughtered by a couple of foxes… We had to go with some that are younger than we wanted. Nevertheless we are now chicken owners! A lot more posts to come! Follow along for the journey! Lol! #homesteading #iowa5a #chickenstr #permies #grownostr
