Green Eggs &

Tonight I went to a PM class at Ballard Library called "Keeping Chickens In the City" hosted by Seattle Free School. The facilitator was awesome and laid back. She brought green eggs to give us with St Patricks Day stickers on them.

Although I will not be able to start this project until after I have moved somewhere more permanant. I need to save around $400 and start scavanging materials for the coop. In the meantime I can visit places like Portage Bay Grange or Seattle Farm Co-op looking for answers. Two things that I walk away from this class is the need to be more aware of "neighbor relations". I've never really had good neighbor relations in Seattle, I've always experienced the bare minimum. Also to avoid imposing on neighbor's interpretations of noise ordinances I need to carefully pick where I next live.

Also her 2-page handout has directed me to some books and websites I'm not ready to look at. Except for Feather Site. OMG there are so many pictures of different breeds that can be found here, for example the Araucana:

Oh the different kinds of chickens.
