Just for fun

It's so much fun just to sit back and watch these little guys do their own thing. Why didn't anyone ever tell me that chickens would be so much fun??? (And dirty. Little buggers poop everywhere.) But the cuteness pretty much makes up for that, at least so far!


Cochin chicks having a chat


Ducks enjoying their "pond"


Here are my Golden Comet and Buff Orpington hanging out


Nosy little Ameracauna stopping by to see what's going on. She's also the troublemaker who kept us awake last night!


The Golden Comet thinks this spot makes a mighty fine roost!

All four of the teensy bantams (from left to right: Dora, Devonking, Luke, and Max)

Size comparison: Devonking next to Pecos Bill (a standard chick about the same age)


Here's Devonking next to a Barred Rock (standard) who is about 2 weeks older


Wait, where did Devonking go??? :) This young lady frequently has a bantam (or two!) under her wing. I think she'd make a good mama.


Hope you enjoyed the pictures!
