Last week we went into Kisumu to buy 200 chickens for the Ligusa Community Centre. They had been ordered from Kissii, and when we got them they were just one day old! They had 2 boxes with 100 of them in each box, all jumping over each other and making chirping noises. I enjoyed holding them and I even put one on my dead's head! These chickens were all egg layers, and they will help the orphanage with a sustainable income; they will sell some of the eggs at market, as well as eating some themselves. When we get back to the village next week it will be interesting to see how much they have grown!
When we are back at Ligusa next week we will not be able to post any blogs for a while, but stay tuned and we will post again from Nairobi in three weeks.
How great to read all these blog entries. What an experience! Thanks for sharing your adventures.
