Critters!!

Early this morning Jeromy heard the chickens making alot of "chicken" noises. So he went out there to investigate and there was a dang raccoon INSIDE the chicken coup. Unfortunately it killed 3 of our 8 chickens. What a bummer. It killed one of our older ones and then 2 of the 3 new little ones.

Well, Jeromy locked the remaining 5 inside their little house till he could figure out what to do.

Later this morning... Kent saw one of the 3 little chickens wandering out in the yard. All we can figure is when the raccoon got in, that little one some how escaped while the other ones were getting attacked. So the raccoon got only 2 of our 8 chickens. But it killed the one that made the pretty pale green eggs. I guess that's the circle of life.

Also did my 4 miles today.
