The egg carton doesn't even shut on the side it's on..it just gaps open!

We're not going to crack it open until Steve is home to see it too.

Anyone know the best type of (free or cheap) yet easy to learn architectural design software? I have hand-drawn barn plans that I would like to re-do and play with in an easily editable way.

All I need is that the interface be fairly intrinsic, that it have a scale grid that can can zoom in to work small details or go large, up to multiple acreage in size to lay out design of a farm. I don't necessarily need for it to be architectural drawing level detail, I just want to be able to map out layout of walls and such, possibly in 3D to see basic elevations.

Are you going to use your current chickens to breed more, or do you have "just enough"?

Naw, we'll never use these to breed...we'd have to get a rooster and they make too much racket for a neighborhood. We'll probably always have six at the most. It's almost too many, actually, because the yard gets too poopy. We keep them penned up in the summer, but I let 'em loose to run around in the winter because we don't roll around in the grass barefooted anyways. And they love it so much.

Got four eggs today...

Poop's good for the grass though, the grass-hay growers around here lay about two inches of chicken poo from the chicken farm on the pastures in early spring.

Yeah, but it's gross when it squeezes up between your toes...

Around here, the wandering flocks of geese provide all the fertilizer we need. Yuck. It's really gross.

Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew...

Oh, wait, that's potatoes.

It's neither free nor cheap but the Punch! series of architectural/landscape software is a good value. Does 'plans' and nice 3D renders. Very play-able.
