18 Chicken Ornaments I Want/Need

November 26, 2019November 26, 2019By JoannaPosted in holidays, chickens

I’m not exactly someone who decorates a theme Christmas tree, but I do like to hang a variety of ornaments that are inspired by my interests… like chickens! Sean doesn’t really participate in the decorating (more on that here), so the decisions are left to me. As always, I’m a chicken lady at heart. So I’ve been on the lookout for chicken ornaments to add to my collection… and there are so many! Here’s some of what I found that have me questioning the difference between ‘want’ and ‘need.’

Sometimes I feel like there’s a split between what I share here on the blog and what I share on Instagram… specifically our backyard chickens!

Plus, apparently consistency is good for this blogging and social media thing? ANYWHOO. I get sooo many questions about how to keep backyard chickens, so it was high time for me to dig in and answer ’em all for you.

Chicken Lady Gift Ideas | Gift Guide

December 6, 2018July 8, 2019By JoannaPosted in 2018 Gift Ideas, chickens

Honestly, I should have shared a chicken lady gift guide last year, but the thought didn’t occur to me! Now that I’ve befriend Kate from Drinking With Chickens (hopefully not against her will), it felt appropriate to curate a gift guide with her in mind.

our backyard chickens story + favorite resources

March 26, 2018July 8, 2019By JoannaPosted in my tiny bungalow, chickens

This post is a bit of a departure from our everyday content, but I hope you enjoy it! In case you’ve been living under a rock (aka not following my Instagram Stories), we’ve had backyard chickens for almost a year. I regularly share them on Instagram as #chickentv and have really come to love the humor and eggs that they bring to our life here at the tiny bungalow. So many of you have asked for help getting your own flock and which resources worked best for us as we were learning, so I thought it was about time for a blog post about them!
