Backyard Chickens

Here is a great overview of backyard chicken movement.  For several years, people laughed and thought Farmer Boy and I are eccentric, to put it nicely.  The article is a proof that we are actually a part of a mass movement, which makes us normal and boring.

One of the blogs I enjoy is No Impact Man. His life is a little bit radical for me, but it's still interesting to read about it.  I like how he sees environmental movement beyond living simply and responsibly. And he posted about chickens. Backyard chickens is a growing movement.  If you live in New York City, check out his post on chickens
