Small victories

I hate it when work gets in the way of life. But the seasonal craziness is over, as marked by the office Christmas party last night.

Now, back to life on the "farm". Good news, the chickens are proving to be smarter than originally thought.

Yup, they have discovered they can drink out of the livestock water tanks. And are also smart enough to avoid the strip of electrified fence tape over the tank. I'm getting some ideas for chicken proofing the garden . . .
