Thoughts of SpRiNg ChiCkEnS and Heritage Hen Houses

This will be the start of our 3rd year in advertising and building hubby's Heritage Hen Houses.  All our customers have been very pleased with the workmanship and quality of the houses he has designed and built, not to mention the happy hens that are fortunate enough to call these palaces their HOME!
This house sold to a family in Holland, Michigan, for their flock of 5 hens.
One customer painted her hen house red and white.
We have sold the Heritage Hen House locally, and unfinished so the buyers can paint or stain to suit their tastes.  There is a choice of roofing colors:  Dark Brown, Rustic Red, or Hunter Green, and electric can be added for an additional fee.  It's time to start advertising, so we can get our waiting list established!

I'm thinking of raising a few new pullets this year to add to my flock after they grow to size.  It's always fun when the baby chicks arrive - they are so cute!  Right now I'm dreaming, as another foot of snow got dumped on us last night, and it's 15 degrees as I type this!  But, spring will come eventually, and I'm ready for it any time!!!
