    Broken tail feathers 🪶

    I was definitely secretly considering it 😄 They are very playful and sweet. They did a great job following me back to the* house tonight 😭❤️ haha. I think the chickens will appreciate the alone time if I bring them in now and again. 😀

    My "RIR" growing into a... legbar? 😄

    Well Teenie here is definitely not a Rhode Island Red. I noticed her little crest coming in and I'm guessing Cream Legbar? Maybe someone with a more seasoned eye could take a shot?

    Happy to be here!!

    You are absolutely right, I get very attached to my animals. Thank you for sharing this!! I feel much better about my plans for a large coop and run, for a minute I felt like I was being "extra". Not to mention rain is a big concern here too! I didn't even think of them possibly avoiding the...
