    Chickens on the Run

    March 30, 2024 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    We left at 10 this morning to go to a quaint cafe and garden.

    On the way, Anja pointed out a chicken camper in a field. The people that Lilli works for move there chickens (by flatbeds on trucks) to different areas so they can be free range. They have 7 campers and 5,000 birds!!!

    The eggs that they collect are sent to the factory to be hardboiled and covered to preserve them for 3 weeks!!
    They put goats in with the birds to go after the Hawks that try to get the birds.

    We went to a Hardware Store that has the sign meaning, "Where screws live."

    We toured the small garden at the cafe and came home.

    Lilli is very busy making raised beds for her vegetables and planting many seeds.

    Madrid tomorrow!    Read more
