Chickens!

Our chickens are doing so well!  The have grown by leaps and bounds since last June when we brought them home as teeny tiny little chicks.

Short Wing.

I know I’m not supposed to have favorites, but this one, Short Wing, is my favorite.  She’s really smart – she can get out of any enclosure and figured out how to follow the cat into the house through the cat door.  Imagine our surprise when we heard a fuss in the living room and there was our chicken chasing our cat around the room!!

This hen lays the biggest eggs with the brightest colored egg yolks.

Bonecrusher is the spotted one.

The spotted one lays the brown eggs – and she is the biggest hen.

Whew! Look at all these eggs!

We get three eggs a day and sometimes we don’t eat them quick enough.  Looks like it’s time for some baking!
