From Brooder to Brooder to Brooder to Brooder to Almost Outdoors

 Over time, we have had about 4 different brooders for the chickens. From the traditional box, to the storage bin, to Ryan's homemade Brooder, to Helen's changes to Ryan's brooder. Here are some images of Ryan and Helen's versions of the brooder:

About month ago, we found out that Mr. Bursch had obtained a grant from CNGF to help with the development of our school's garden, as well as build a chicken coop and run for us. We were supposed to build on the 16th, but there were some transportation problems, so we are rescheduling. Currently, the chickens are just about ready to move into the outdoors, so we have been giving them some outdoor time. Here are some pictures of Helen and I with the chickens outside:

The chicks really enjoy their outside time. We hope to get the chicks living outside soon. That's all for now!
