Queen Chika's Page

 From beautiful Kiowa, Colorado, we are the critter loving Reyna family.  I'm mom, Jenelle, my husband is Tim, and our daughters Annabella Rose-10 years old, and Gabriella Raven-4 years old. 

We absolutely love our chickens, and I believe I am becoming addicted to them.  We purchased our first flock in March of 2008, with no idea how to raise chicks, but we figured it out, and learn a little everyday.  We added four hens in January 2009, and then I gave into the deadly temptation of buying five chicks a few weeks ago, then just had to get the fancy breeds when they came in a few days ago - it's a sickness for sure! 

So now, we have:

 Lemon Drop - Polish Rooster - he is the king around here

Henna ,our Americana

Pashmina the weak-legged Barred Rock 

*Those three were of the original 8, and all that are left from them

Two Buff Brahmas - Marylin and Jackie-O

Scarlet is a Rhode Island Red (I think)

Our Newest Additions - The Baby Chix:

Dafne-California White; Oreo - Silver Laced Wyndott;  Starina - Black Star;  Stella - Black Australorp;  Peanut - Americauna

The Newest, Newest Additions:

Buffy and Cream Puff - Buff Orpingtons, Pom Pom - White Crested Polish, Cruella DeVille - Mottled Polish, and the tiniest little chick ever - Pumpkin - a light Brahama (bantam maybe?)

Thank the heavens for our chickens who give us so much simple happiness in this world we live in!!!

RIP: Brown Sugar, Frizzle, Goldie, Baby Blue
