The soil is too heavy. You might be able to grow them in more of a sand/perlite potting soil but it really isn't worth it here. You'd have to have the pot out of the rain (compacts that dirt and makes things gnarly). Cool tractor... Carrots? The soil is too heavy.

We raise our chickens for the benefit of the land and eggs. They've also become our pets as well and actually like being held. Pretty funny little creatures... Jose - Sorry, we sold all of the Ameraucanas that we had for sale. I'll let you know next time we get a batch if you'd like :) Beautiful SeeAsia – Bienvenidos de Puerto Rico!

My King and I moved here to Puerto Rico 6 months ago and finally getting settled three weeks ago after an tiresome and adventurous travel around the island since November. We're right in Aguada, in a home and looking for ideas to get this place cranking. Glad I have come across your blog. Although we are not chicken nor meat eaters it is pretty cool to see what people are doing with their space. Admirable, I'll keep this channel of yours in my favorites. Looking forward to meeting more natives. - Beautiful SeeAsia Hola, peace and blessings everyone.

I love how you put the old storm door to use in such an Eco-friendly way! We should all take a lesson from your good deed and learn that just raising our own chickens helps the earth in so many ways. We put in our 4th Veggie Garden this year and use it all summer & fall. Beats the $$ at The Market and its more rewarding. When I get to Rincon full time I too plan on a chicken coop! These little things help is so many ways and so many others should follow suite. Keep up the wonderful work and enjoy those Beautiful colored eggs. They seem to pretty to crack. :) Summer,

I didn't really either until we started getting freshies. They are SO much better then store bought. Carol - The green/blue eggs tastes exactly the same as the brown/white. Just a fun novelty. It's like Easter every day around here! ;) Cassie - I saw the pictures of your property and was thinking that you guys are in pretty much the same place we were 6 years ago. It will be a fun/interesting/annoying/rewarding/crazy journey! I look back at our before pictures and think now, "WTF were we thinking?!". First time home owners with no building experience buying a shell of a house in a foreign land....haha...Thankfully everything worked out and we are STOKED! Katrina – Do you not eat eggs?

It's still in "before" shape and we have lots to do to make it "after" beautiful like your place. But we gotta start somewhere. Plus it's kind of fun. We'd love to hear what you think and some tips and pointers and contacts. We'll probably be out on a visit this winter again, so we'll give you a shout. Most definitely!

How about using skateboard wheels and a couple 2x2s or something to put the show on the road (with a broom handle to pull)? jaja I think even I could eat eggs if they came packaged in green shells!

One of our Ameraucanas also likes to sneak into the house, lay an egg and sneak out. It's like Easter around here, all year long! We want to come check out your PR property...Invite us over next time you guys are in town! :) Cassie – Yes, I agree..Chickens are awesome!
