Revised Chicken Coup

Well, we added onto the chicken coup! Here's our new (and clean for the moment) coup.







This is where they lay their eggs



This is where the pullets go, after they leave the brooder.




This is the breeder pen, where we put pure breeds together for hatching our own chicks.

Blessed with New Life


Blessed shall be the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground and the fruit of your cattle, the increase of your herds and the young of your flock. Deut. 28:4


When I look out at our little farm, I stand in amazement at the blessings He has given us. This picture is of our Dexter cow and her new calf Ella. So much of the Bible references to land, animals, farming, sowing, etc. I was reading in Deuteronomy 28, which talks about blessings for obedience. How the Lord has blessed us with fruit on the trees, crops, livestock, and new life in the pasture. I look out in my backyard and I see His creation and I see His blessings.
