Not to neglect our adults, here is their page.

While we were assembling their future coop, they came curious and interested to investigate what we were doing. They were bold and unafraid of the nail guns, wood cutting, loud bangs and clangs of work.

My neighbor bought me these chickens because her lab had eaten a few of my former chickens. Now our fence is predator proofed, and the chickens are thriving happily. They were certainly confident enough to inspect our workmanship on their house.

Our hens and cockerels love gazing at themselves in the mirror in their enclosed run.

Inspections

A partridge silkie. Still a juvenile. The silkies are slower to mature. Can't wait till they are full grown to see their plumage.
