Weed Success

After letting the chickens out and moving the little pen, we found a nice hole in the weeds.  We don't know how it affected the chickens being in there all day, but that weed control is nice. 

We moved the pen and put in more chickens this morning.  I'm thinking my husband should make another little pen so we can have two work gangs of chickens going at once.

The average last frost for this area is May 9th, yesterday.  I have tender plants ready to go in the ground and the 10 day forecast isn't anywhere close to freezing, but if I plant and a frost comes, it will be a lot of work to save them.  Do we plant so it's less work taking care of the plants but risk the hard work of protecting from frost?  It's a real discernment in laziness.
