Sjisty, they're beautiful! What a wonderful house mother hen
I think Chickpea started singing her egg song today, I'm so excited! She's 15 weeks now, so I think I still have a few more weeks. I'm hoping I'll get an egg for my birthday next month, lol. Although I believe anything that happens...
She's been doing a lot better than I thought she would. Except for her jail break over the fence on Saturday. The only thing I worry now is the doves coming in, I don't want her to get sick. She cleared out a spot in the corner of the garden for dust bathing and sun bathing, she loves to lay out...
Well... Chickpea's out in the back now... Hubby chased her out there when he came back home from the ocean
Although if I do "forget" to close the back door she'll wonder in.
Ack! Chickpea finally jumped the fence on Saturday.... I had taken a nap, and set my alarm for one hour... One hour turned into four.. When I went out to go check on her I didn't see her anywhere!! I called her name out, and heard a little "bup, bup" And saw her through the fence.. Silly...
JoJo, have a safe trip, and I hope Lulu stays safe and cool in the front passenger seat How cute is that. I think about taking Chickpea for rides, but my jeep doesn't have doors, lol. I think it'd scare the ba-jeesuz out of her more than anything
I hope your aunties has a quick and well...
Oh, no! Iluvcks, I hope your chickies get well soon, and it isn't too serious. Hopefully your vet was able to help you out before he left, or someone was in the office. I didn't know chickens get bumblefoot. I have seen a lot of posts about ducks, but didn't know it was chickens also. Eek! Hope...
Cutest... Chicken... Ever...
She chased a little gnat around the house for like 5 minutes.. Got bored with it, it came back around and she saw it. She just hopped like two inches into the air and gulped it
Yea, definately everything is waaaay more expensive over here, honestly the only perk of living off base is not worrying about Chickpea.. He's close to work, we live half a mile from the commisary and exchange, the nex gas port... I don't mind my drive to work. The only one o my neighbors I'm...

I was looking at places after I got the email, and I wouldn't mind it so much living elsewhere, although I'm not the one who has to drive all the way down to Pearl everyday I work for a lady for the farmers market, the company is called Maunaliwi Greens, and her place in Windward Oahu...
So I received an email from my hubs this morning, and well, I'm still not sure if he's thrilled to come home to a chicken running around the house, but he lovingly told me that I'm just being retarded and I shouldn't get rid of her because I raised her and I love her and she keeps me company...
It is very true that there are chickens everywhere in Hawaii. A couple of my neighbors know about her... A few of them don't care. Chickpea doesn't bother them so why should they be involved.. One of them is super gossipy, but I don't think she'd report me, there is one girl who I will be...
I have a very heart-breaking decision to make. I think I may have to give up my beautiful little Chickpea.. I know that I shouldn't have brought her home in the first place, but I don't want anything to happen where my husband can end up getting into trouble. I've emailed him about it and I'll...
She's still pretty small now, well even though she's a monster compared to when I got her.. But I change her every couple hours and she seems good, and her bum usually stays pretty clean, if it does get dirty I just clean her up with a wet paper towel and let her run around naked til her butt...
I think it might be the elastic under her tail feathers that she's not a fan off. At first I was thinkiing maybe she just didn't like fabric? But I made another last night in cotton using a similar pattern as the t-shirt one. It kind of wraps around her tail and has no elastic and she is fine...
I've already shared this story in an email with PinkSue earlier today, but I still think it's amusing so I'll share with the group Chickpea and I got some diapers in the mail Saturday, from PinkieSue, of course. So my obvious reaction was to put on them on her. Immediately she freaked out...
Yay, diapers!!! Chickpea and I got some diapers in the mail today from PinkieSue, I couldn't be happier, and Chickpea couldn't be more upset, lol. I'm starting to feel bad for her, she's been going backwards for a couple hours now... I don't know what to do! I've held her, loved her, talked...
iluvcks, I am so sorry for your loss. I hope that you can comfort in know that you gave him the very best while he was with you only a short time. That pic is adorable of him.
VelvetDragon, when my husband (then boyfriend) were living in New York last summer we were both getting sick, I...
Thanks, guys. I think she's the bees knees
I heard her first "cluck" today She's growing up
Jkioneil, I love your avatar What a lucky puppy to get all that chick love
