Relative Something

Just in case we actually do get some chickens, yesterday I spent some time clearing out the area where we would like to put a coop. The spot is conveniently located close to the paddock, the back pasture, and the space where we compost manure. It is pretty well sheltered from wind, and a convenient distance from the house and barn.

There were quite a few dead butternut trees in the vicinity that I have been wanting to cut down since we arrived here. This gave me an opportunity to stop neglecting the chore.

I don’t know how things will turn out, but even if we don’t end up putting up a chicken coop here, I’m happy to have the dead trees finally cut down. We’ve got another big stack of branches to chip into mulch for our trails, and next winter, I’ll be pleased to have the wood split and stacked in the shed for fires.
