Chickens and cats photos i have in many, many files ! But alas i have been a Jeanne Mayell fail at posting photos that ovetwhelm community requirements for sizing. I type on a phone and even downsized for Google photos one is too huge by itself. Maybe I'll do what you did and ask Jeanne to remove it if its too many whatever whatevers.
Chicken(s) for dinner has a whole different meaning at our house. THEY want dinner! Once, I left the door open and 3 of them came on in for a little sashaying around the dining room single file. I did my "uhuhuhuuuhhh!" at them and they single filed on out in a hurry!
Chickens are a lot of work but they are also highly entertaining! A very different kind of sentient consciousness.
Far superior to many currently in positions of power in in fact. They concur on major decisions and always for what's best for one and all.
And they go to bed without being told they have to and wake up happy and ready for a new day without complaining except perhaps on snow days when their skinny little chicken feet don't like the cold.
However, i often them fix warm oatmeal with blueberries and serve them in bed in their sleeping coop.
For chickens and cats at my house life is pretty good. And they all have names and no chicken raised by me ever gets eaten. Only their eggs which are far far better than store ones which are always old not fresh ?
Nice to see all the pet photos. got to share this beauty...
Lollipop mid yawn
@lovendures funny you should say that- she just got through knocking everything off of my dresser.
She usually spends a lot of time precariously balanced on the ornate woodwork at the very top of my old pump organ from the 1800's- kind of like the one in Sunset Boulevard - very Gothic-ky and perfect for a black cat.
Your chickens also are Godzilla sized. They look as though they are as tall as a doorway. haha
Lollipop? Thank goodness she doesn't look huge or she would be terrifying with that yawn. haha. She has cute feet.
Ahh .... they are too cute Michele ... I had three Aracauna chicklets that I raised from 2 days old in a box inside the house, and then transfered to a bunny hutch on stilts in the garden.
I really wanted those beautiful little pink, blue and yellow 'easter' eggs that they are famous for.... but alas, when they got bigger and started to peck to shreds my herbs and fly over the fence, I decided to re-home them. I found a lovely place for them with an older lady that had many chickens that she kept just for the eggs ... and no raccoons roaming the neighborhood, which was a big problem where I lived.
The Aracaunas (from South America originally) are really different ... they look more like a wild bird, but those eggs! ?
@laura-f, fair enough. I always get a little Joanne of Arc when it concerns animals. Not always sane;-)
Your little one is awesome!!!!!
