Now we are 20!

Three hens and a cockerel have joined our family!

We recently heard of some chickens that were facing the cooking pot unless a home could be found. We gave in.  It wasn’t hard because there was an existing chicken house on our property.

The chickens are adult bantams rescued from the wild.

Which brings us to 9 dogs, 5 cats, 2 miniature horses and 4 chickens.  As the old saying goes, “One doesn’t need to be mad to live here, but it helps!

A few pictures to share with you.

Jean, meet your new chickens!

Hey girls, we get to eat!

This just might be a nice new home!

Oh, a proper chicken house!

Guess you girls ought to offer a thank-you.
