Vice President JD Vance made a unique addition to his residence: A Victorian chicken coop housing a dozen baby chicks. <\/p>\n

The henhouse is designed to look like the Victorian house on the grounds of the U.S. Naval Observatory where the second family lives. It includes a round turret and faux slate roof. <\/p>\n

The coop was built by custom-built Carolina Coops, a company in North Carolina that advertises \u201cpremium,\u201d handcrafted chicken coops. It was finished May 29 and donated to the residence. No taxpayer money was used to build the coop, The Associated Press reports. <\/p>\n

By adding the coop, the Vance family becomes one of 9 million U.S. households to own backyard chickens, according to a survey by the American Pet Products Association. <\/p>\n

Vance has often joked about how many eggs his sons eat. <\/p>\n

\u201cThese guys actually eat about 14 eggs every single morning,\u201d he said in a 2024 video discussing the rising prices of groceries under the Biden-Harris administration.<\/p>\n

Past additions to the residence<\/h3>\n

Vance is not the first vice president to make additions or renovations to the residence at Number One Observatory Circle. <\/p>\n

A heated swimming pool was added to the property by Dan Quayle in 1991. <\/p>\n

Joe Biden added a tree swing on the grounds in 2010 as a Valentine\u2019s Day surprise for his wife. Jill Biden added the Family Heritage Garden with stones to commemorate the home\u2019s previous occupants. The garden also includes a bronze sculpture of the Bidens\u2019 dog Champ. <\/p>\n

In 2017, Mike Pence\u2019s wife Karen installed a beehive housing more than 15,000 bees. <\/p>\n

Kamala Harris, the first female vice president to occupy the residence, added pink wallpaper to the home\u2019s library in 2023 to replace the existing green color. <\/p>\n

The 33-room home on the grounds of the Naval Observatory has housed U.S. vice presidents and their families since 1977. <\/p>\n
