A reader of my blog asks: How can you have backyard chickens when you are gone? We go to Norway to visit my family for about 2 weeks every year. Is there someway to deal with that?

Let me just tell you how wonderful it must be to be able to travel to Norway every year. I am so jealous! My passport is a long-lost relic of my traveling days after I graduated high school. I was able to visit Paris, Madrid, and Barcelona when I was 18, and I wish I had more time to travel now that my children are a little older.

Reader, I hope that your jet-setting ways haven’t discouraged you from getting chickens because it is possible to have backyard birds and have the ability to adventure away from the homestead.
