Backyard Hens

From our conversation this morning at 7:50am here is the complete list of tips to keep your backyard hens a secret if the public comittee meeting rules against them in Kingston tonight...

• Don't get too many. Three is a good number.

• Pick a quiet, docile breed. Even mellow neighbours might become less so if your flighty chickens make periodic breaks for freedom into their backyard or are noisy.

• Keep your henhouse über-clean. Lock feed in rodent-proof bins or canisters. Vigilantly clean the house and run to prevent odour.

• Don't create an eyesore. Or neighbours might talk. To the city, that is.

• Finally, share the wealth. If your neighbours know about the hens, occasionally drop off a basket of a half-dozen fresh organic eggs .

Now enjoy your eggs or roast chicken when the time comes!!

Just before 6am we talked about a great Steve Miller interview and it really is an extension of a conversation we had last week about whether or not Aerosmith should release new music.

I Say NO! DONT DO IT! What you have done is so great that anything you do from this point will only be compared to your past hits.

Steve Millers views are right here
