Well, the Aviary is in full bloom and I'm jonesing for occupants. Chickens are still illegal in my neighborhood (stinkin' bureaucracy!) until the zoning commission has it's 45 days to talk it to death. Then it goes back to the commissioners for another vote. By the time the bill ratification is complete they estimate it will be February 2010. All that just to change the wording so that 3 hens per family are allowed inside city limits. And we've been fighting for 18 months already! So, so stupid. I mean, my neighbors can have a pack of Pit Bulls and I can't have a couple of hens? Anywho, many folks around here have found a little loophole in our law. It allows pigeons. Heh, heh, heh (rubbing hands together in a diobolical fashon). So, the NW Pigeon Fanciers is having a show next month. The place will be brimming with fancy pigeons and doves. I'm so there.
Solomon is 8, Malachi is 6, Levi (adopted domestically from the foster care system), is 4, and Zephaniah (adopted domestically from the foster care system) is 2. We are also currently fostering a beautiful baby girl, Rosie (6 weeks), who came to us at 19 days old.
God has called our family to foster care adoption to complete our dreams of a large family. Through all the ups and downs we look to Him to plan our family and complete His plan for our home.
We play.
We laugh.
We homeschool.
We jump on the furniture.

see if you can get away with show chickens, as pets.
look up silkie chickens, they don't look like chickens really, and the meat is really really weird, but they lay eggs just like normal chickens.
of course you could go the route of the crazies and pull in the dreaded website www.chickendiapers.com
please don't be that crazy though.
