Chicken Coop Opening Party

I’ll never forget one day walking home from school and seeing one of our chickens cross South Road. Sadly, I wasn’t able to catch this chicken and wasn’t able to question why the chicken did cross the road.

So when Dad’s chicken coop was damage due to a storm he was quick to rebuild and to redesign a new one! No chicken would escape, no chicken will be harmed by Milly (the dog) again and it would be so grand there will be an opening party.

Book Book Chicken was opened! Complete with a private invite to the event. Many of Dad’s friends turned up for prestigious opening.

Food was all made from chicken’s eggs with frittatas, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce.

Brian French was our special guest speaker, with a history of competing in chicken shows. He was the honourable guest to cut the red ribbon on the brand new chicken coop.

Years later I was asked by triple j for an interview about this event!

You can hear my interview at the 5:50 mark.
