Another thing you could also do is build some perches or things for them to climb on and put it in their run. Its a fun project to do and the chickens will love it. Just an idea 💡

We just got through our first year on our new homestead too, and it was definitely a wild ride! Looking back on it, it's almost hard to believe how much we were able to accomplish in just one year. I like the idea of making a list of goals for the year, I think I will start that today. Subscribed, it'll be fun seeing what we can both get accomplished this next year!

BRAVO! This is a great video. It sounds like a Business Plan well on its way. I love that you make your plans together. And, you are so on the point with write down your goals or your forget them. I am elderly and disabled so I have a handyman who helps me out once or so a week. I make a list and when he leaves I go out and realize that one of my really big needs is not on the list and he is gone for a week. So, always make a list. It is a reminder when you have so many things going on. BTW, I love that you have your goal of being outside. The sun and fresh air is so important to good health. Those are very happy children and I didn't see you coaching them to be happy. So many parents, in my opinion, make the chores a bad thing instead of a fun thing. Learning to work together is an excellent life skill and being outside to do it - Well, the best. Are you going to home school?
