One Hundred Dollars a Month

I am your typical housewife living in high maintenance suburbia. I have a handsome husband, 2 kids and a flock of pet chickens. I try and feed my family with $100 a month. With the help of coupons, gardening and bartering I am able to squeeze the most out of our grocery budget and still manage to have a little fun along the way.

Thinking about getting some chickens this year? I hear all the cool people are doing it these days. Here are a few coops I think are pretty awesome.

I think the 3rd picture is my favorite. It looks like a little playground for chickens. Weeee!

If you have a garden and are thinking about getting some chickens, you might want to read Free-Range Chicken Gardens: How to Create a Beautiful, Chicken-Friendly YardBy Jessi Bloom.  Amazon currently has it in stock and ready to ship, and the book is full of chicken-keeping basics, simple garden plans, tips on attractive fencing options, the best plants and plants to avoid, and step-by-step instructions for getting your chicken garden up and running.

Yee-Haw! Now we’re farming!

  3. That’s *SO* funny you featured the Hobbit House… After we saw the Hobbit in theaters, I told my husband that I wanted a Hobbit hole :] He googled for me & said “How about a Hobbit chicken coop? That’s a little easier to obtain”

    XD… Now I just need to live in an area that’ll let me have chickens 🙁
