  • Category: Chicken
  • Name: Drumstick
  • Coloration/Breed/Gender/Age: Black Cochin Hen, 2 yrs
  • What Makes This Chicken Standout: She fits to the ABA standard of perfection pretty spot on, while she lacks heavy foot feathering she makes up for in balance and fullness along with natural oils that are a strong sign of her good health. Not to mention she is my little lap buddy when I'm getting ready for for a show.

* Category:  Chicken

*  Name:  Iris

*  Easter Egger/Pullet/About 15 weeks (not sure what you'd call her coloration, please feel free to tell me?)

*  My favorite bird is our quirky Easter Egger named Iris.  Besides the fact that she resembles a hawk, she is beyond friendly.  I believe she thinks she is one of my dogs?!?  She is always on the middle of things - She loves anyone and everything.  Will sit on your lap, follow you around - Just an amazing chicken with a great personality.

Category: Chicken 

Name:  Sparrow Hawk

Ameraucana/Cockerel/3 months

I used to take him out of the coop and hold him and feed him watermelon and yogurt.  He would very greedily eat it.  He also liked to just rest in my lap or sit next to me and crow.  I just loved that little guy.

I live where the Phoenix cries, where the Wyvern flies, and where all mythical creatures live in harmony.

I'm a drakoligist (studyer of dragons) and proud of it!

Wanna see something funny? Check this out!

*Category* Turkeys

*Name of bird* Barney

*Breed, age, and gender of bird* Barney is a Broadbreasted Bronze turkey, he is 1 1/2 years old, and is a gorgeous tom.

*What makes them special* Barney is a big ol' sweetheart. :) Although he's a bit slower than the other turkeys and birds on the farm, he is always right up at the front of the flock to greet me. He hits his head against my leg when I have watermelon or grapes, because they're his favorite. I know he won't be around much longer, but I cherish him while he's here. Barney is also very goofy, and is constantly 'running' in terror from my bantam rooster. lau.gif
