Our chickens.
I have one yellow hen, gift from brother in spring of 2004; one reddish yellow hen, daughter of Old Yellar, born spring 2005; 2 black and one white-black speckled pullets from red-yellar born fall 2005; One rooster that wondered down from brothers place in summer 2004. They room free and take their chances with the varmits from the Rock Quary. Last year we had many chicks, but only these 4 survived. Curently Whitey is setting on a clutch of eggs. Maybe we will have baby chicks and maybe the varmits will have a feast. Our chickens are show chickens, ie for show only, as we do not bother to even try to find their eggs. I buy eggs in town and let the chickens do as they please.

When we were kids, we had lots of clothes dyed with reddish clay dirt. How in the world did you get them to let you bring a chicken back on the plane even in a dirty shirt?
