Holly has told me that chickens can’t see in the dark but I’ve never really experienced their night blindness first hand. It’s something that I’ve always wanted to see and last night I got to experience the humor that accompanies a chicken that has been caught out in the dark.
Since Holly had to work an evening shift last night, I was responsible for gathering the hens at dusk and putting them in their coop. Normally they will just go in by themselves but Holly recently moved the chicks out there so the bigger birds aren’t able to get into the coop on their own. I guess that’s their punishment for pecking at, and generally being big jerks to the chicks.

Now that the basement is almost completely finished, I decided that the weekend would be spent trying to clean the garage enough to allow one of our vehicles to be parked inside. I have always taken great pride in the fact that, unlike some of our neighbors, we could actually park both vehicles in the garage and still have room to walk around them. When we decided to start working on the basement though, all that changed. I still took pride in being able to park in the garage, I just couldn’t. It’s amazing how much room sheetrock, lumber, bathroom stuff, etc. takes up.
