Cackling with Amusement


Today must be "Artists in Publication" Day. Not our art, tho, HA! Mike just posted that delightful "centerfold" of himself on the same day I received a complimentary issue of Chickens magazine, courtesy of the editor. I am featured on pgs. 35-39, Fall/Winter 2010. That's right, there's a magazine about backyard chicken farming (I was surprised too). They had a writer interview me, sent a photographer to our home & whoops, I'm in print.

If you want to know about keeping your food sources as natural, fresh & "close to home" as possible -- in your backyard, for instance -- I'm a credible expert, apparently? I sure hope this wasn't my only chance in life to be "famous," HA!

Sweet - they have a magazine for everything now, don't they. Big congrats!

CUTE! What a riot! Love chickies!! I love fresh eggs, too, and I don't mind a little fresh chicken, either, now and then. Nice picture! Congrats! I never got my picture in a magazine when I raised chickens!

Oh man, I think it'd be awesome to be featured in a magazine called "Chickens". The only magazine I'd make it into right now is Dead Grass and Weeds Quarterly.

LOL! Y'all are all so much FUN! Tee hee!

Absoutely Awesome! Published in a Chicken magazine rocks. By-the-way, I always buy free-range, brown, large eggs rather than extra-large eggs thanks to a British hen farmer's global concern that XL eggs hurt the chickens.

HA! @ Ballookey: I will be in that magazine too, no doubt!

@ The Group: I feel compelled to disclose that Mike Kline is my favorite egg-buying group member this week. Note also, I am extremely fickle, so his favour won't last ;-)

Mikey is such a good boy with his egg choices! :-D

Congrats, chicken!

I think I am going to start using chicken as a term of endearment now, my little chicken.
