Clara tried to talk her dad into a falcon that she could train and command to hunt for wild game. Her dad told her she would have to be satisfied teaching chickens to perch on a little leather glove and commanding them to, "LAY AN EGG!"

Now... we just have to get a coop built tomorrow. Tomorrow?? A photo of my dream coop is attached. Well, unless I can find a train boxcar on Craig's List...
