Unfortunately, we lost 12 chickens (3 black silkies and our 9 two month old chicks) the other night. Allen immediately set to the task of finding us some more "sitters" so we will be able to continue hatching some of our eggs. Today he and the girls went and picked up our newest additions. Then Allen called to warn me that we are now the proud owners of some of the ugliest chickens he's ever seen! The girls disagree; they are smitten.
Our crazy new trio of birds. Featherless necks and heads. Well, other than the pom-pom on top.
The rooster. Intimidating? Not so much. Fluffy head? Definitely.
White hen. Emma's favorite.
