Jenotopia is a collection of information, insight, and entertainment coming directly to you from the suburbs of Middle Tennessee, USA. My interests are wide-ranging, and I do a great deal of research on the many projects I have going on at any given time. I freely share with you what I learn as I go, and I have many generous friends and associates who also share their information and stories in these pages. Food, wine, small-scale farming, organic and biodynamic gardening, conservation, animal husbandry, literature, and just staying sane in this time of great change: we are just scratching the surface with these topics, and more are sure to follow as the mind of Jen wanders on its never-ending Journey. Enjoy your time in Jenotopia! With warmest encouragement, Jen |

Turn off the depressing news channel and catch up on what the Spoiled Suburban Hens are up to this week. Week of May 31, 2009
Breaking News:All our older cockerels have now been sent to live with their own harems of lovely ladies. We are sad to see them go, as we have become quite fond of the boys -- but we are confident they will be happy in their new homes. Farewell to Nick Nolte, Big Rosie, Apollo and Starbuck! We also have no less than FOUR broody hens now -- it seems that all the fuzziest girls want to nest now that it's warmer. Lady Amber, Aunt Bea, Penny Pretty and Lucy Liu are all spending their days in a clucking, non-blinking broody trance. We miss them, and hope they come back soon.
The menu:Current Hen Activities:- [Big girls] Picking grubs and red worms out of the damp soil
- [Bantams] Exercising wings by flying around the coop and run
- [Chicks] Learning to master the finer points of running and flapping, and also keeping Hen Mama busy by dirtying up food and water dishes
Current Hen Mama Activities:- Enjoying the chicks!
- Adding herbs to the new herb garden around banty playhouse
Predator sightings: Lord Red-Tail Neighborhood cats - Vulture brothers
