Wow! I've never seen something like that before! Do they mind them? Did you make them?
 

Romans 8:38-39

For i am convinced that neither death nor life,neither angels nor demons,neither the present nor the future,nor any powers,neither height depth,nor anything else in all creation,will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

  I wonder what the person next door raking the yard thought of your tutu wearing chickens?  lau.gif

Not sure what the raker thought -- my other next door neighbor made the tutus with a relatively broad band of elastic and some tulle.  Simple and somewhat disposable.  How she even thought of it I do not know.  The chickens did not seem to mind them at all, and the whole neighborhood turned out to see this colorful display.  The dog, who is not in the film, had a matching tutu on.  It was just a wacky kind of tutu day.  After a while,  we took the tutus off and laughed for the next few weeks about it.  The neighbor across the street finally put the footage up on youtube. Chickens in tutus, like a Dali take on Degas.
