The Chickens
In Austin, raising fowl is about as common as hipsters and breakfast tacos, and The Doodle House is no exception to the backyard chicken bandwagon.
The world of chicken rearing has been fun, frustrating and fruitful. We’ve experienced untimely deaths (and some timely ones) as well abundant egg laying and have even trained ourselves to become experts in the field of coop building.
These days we’re keeping 4 chickens around, Frannie Sue, Blondie, Brenda and Bea. Follow our chickens here.
I loved this! You have a really fun and very interesting blog here and I am excited to have found you and will be following, looking forward to what comes next. Thanks!

I didn’t know chicken raising was big in Austin! Awesome! Yet another thing to love about that city. I don’t have experience with it myself, but yard eggs are so expensive at the farmer’s markets! Lovely blog, by the by.
I want some chickens too!
Hey ya, found your blog totally by coincidence, I’m way north in hill country, a chicken keeper too.
wanted to tell ya’ll about the first EVER annual Hill Country Chicken Coop Tour we’re having May 5 from 10-4, it’s self guided…check out the facebook page for more info if you guys feel like making a chicken coop day trip on cinco de mayo…we were all too far north to join funky chicken, so we started one of our own.
