Jerry, you sound pretty redneck to me brother, kudos on the freezer that don't work, how long its been there? The tell tale sign you got redneck in your blood is the old white school bus out back, yellow would have been better, but white's ok too. anything brokedown adds a nice touch and the chickens are the coupe de grace.
My wife just calls me Fred Sanford, cause I got junk all over the place, can't ever seem to part with enough of it, throw stuff out and more creeps back in, I'm more of a city hillbilly, I guess you could say I'm a redneck wanna be. Two of my dogs sleep with me and the wife, the other on the floor next to the bed. I have 5 frogs, 2 bearded dragons, 3 dogs and a colony of Dubia roaches to feed the dragons and frogs, and a 1990 bass boat that hadn't been run since before Katrina, gotta nice new 2000 motor in it though, boy does the wife want that thing gone.
Now inside the house is another story, bee boxes everywhere, my wife is a very patient woman, but I will have to move the bee boxes out of the house and into the shed very soon as they are taking up the spot where the fake christmas tree goes.
One day, I hope to have chickens runnin' around, just not in the city.
