So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen - Goodbye!!

When Joleen left on Monday morning, she took something with her - GLENN'S CHICKENS!!!!!

Even though 3 of the 4 have been laying eggs daily (and we LOVE the fresh eggs) it was getting to be a hassle since we are traveling so much.....................and with winter coming up soon and 3 trips in the works, he knew it was time to hand them off to someone else.

Joleen's daughter, Becca, already has chickens and had lost a couple this last year so she was more than willing to take the 2 hens and the 2 bantys - in exchange for Joleen bringing us fresh eggs whenever she comes out!

So Glenn packed the chickens into 2 crates and put them in the back of Jo's car - we covered them with a sheet so they wouldn't cackle much on the 7 1/2 hour trip home but guess they still made some noise!

But they arrived back in KS. safe and sound and now Becca is enjoying them just as much as Glenn did!!  I know he misses them!

Oh too bad you had to let them go. But there is always next year :)

Yeah...one less thing to worry about! Although I'm sure you'll miss the eggs.
