The Girls





Okay so I have made several posts just today but I gotta fill this thing up with good stuff. Sooo chickens. We have three, Myrtle, Ethel, and John Rambo (Pickles). I got Myrtle and Pickles at Foster Feed and Garden. Ethel was hatched by my sister in law Gretchen. She is a Rhode Island Red. The chicken, not Gretchen. Myrtle is a Gold Laced Wyandotte and Pickles/Rambo is a Buff Orpington. All good layers and sweet natured. Ethel is looking a little like a cross between Sam the Eagle from the muppets and some sort of turkey. What can I say they are all teenagers. All the pictures I have though she is looking right in the camera ready for her close up. I am obsessed with these chickens. I mean look at them. Wouldn't you be too.

Those girls have PERSONALITY! What great posture.

I heard some chicken cacklng yesterday. I think it hatched an egg. She was either very proud or it hurt!
