Quote:I know how they feel....I are one.When I came to BYC I felt like I had fallen down the rabbit hole, for sure. Saw and read things I'd never heard and in short order went out to the coop to see if I was still on planet Earth and in the appropriate dimension.![]()
Yep, chickens still wore just feathers and not clothes, coop still looked like chickens lived there not Barbie dolls, feed still looked like chicken feed instead of an organic, gourmet meal that I could never afford. It sure was a comfort to know that my own little bubble in the world had not tipped off plumb...just the rest of the universe.
A mirror in the coop could sure make the flock look bigger...but beware of it reflecting and concentrating the sunlight and catchin' yer beddin' on far!![]()

Gonna have to get Al some of those nifty signs like you have in your coop as a Christmas gift for his laying flock. I just know he will love them! Very cute!
The Mr., using all the appropriate eye-rolls and exasperated sighs, made those signs for me. Well he cut and lettered them, then I painted them. There is another one on the front door that says 'Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens' with little music notes dancing around it.![]()

The sun never directly hits the mirror in a way that could start a 'far' made sure of that when we repurposed the shack, but I appreciate you thinking of it!
And I'm just a back-woods, South Alabama/Florida raised gal, so I can hang pretty well, but I HAVE learned that there IS a distinct difference between Ozark hillbillies and southern folk in general. But I LOVE them, and so far, while I make them shake their heads now and then, they seem to like me pretty well too.![]()
