Oeuf! That’s four more eggs than I’d need! Maybe my neighbour would like to share.

Is it practical to let them free-range in an urbanish neighbourhood? We have deer, raccoons, cats, the occasional coyote, osprey and eagles, etc—we are not far from open range and open wildlands. I assume they’d need some sort of enclosure at night, but during the day?

I’ve checked and we are allowed a coop…

I am no genius, my dear Mrs. Peaker, for were you to call me a wit it would be too kind by half.

But I do like to think that I have my moments.
