Love to hang out with my best friend!! ~open to all chickens, turkeys, waterfowl and peafowl!~... - Page 2

• Category: Chicken
• Name: Johann Sebastian bawk
• Coloration/Breed/Gender/Age: WCB Polish Bantam Rooster, 1 year
• What Makes This Chicken Standout: He is my 4h fitting and showing boy. Sweethesrt that is a great hen protector and also loves to be held. As soon as he gets on the showing table he stands like a statue as if waiting for a well deserved applause

Annabell is one of my favorites!  She is a Blue Wheaten Ameraucana & is now 16 weeks old.  She has the most lovable expressions, and follows me around the chicken run & is my little buddy.  She coos, and tilts her head to one side when I talk to her as if she really understands what I'm saying.  Recently we purchased a new coop for just the Ameraucanas & I was spending a lot of time painting it, to make it look especially cute for them.  To pass time while painting, I started to sing and Annabell laid down by my chair, and closed her eyes & went to sleep.  Don't know if that means she liked my singing or not?! LOL

The first pic is of Annabell when she was 11 days old.  See what I mean about her turning her head when you talk to her?

The 2nd pic is her at 14 weeks.  I love her little muffs & beard, sooo pretty!

And this pic is of Annabell & I having some quality time!  She is so sweet & gentle...

He is gorgeous!

when is this being judged? :)

*Catagory: Chicken

*Name of Bird: Tootsie

*Breed and Age and Gender of Bird* Now 3 Year old Buff Orpington Rooster

*What makes them Special* I bought Tootsie as a 3 month old. When I went to get him and his siblings, it was dark, so I couldn't see them very well. I brought them home, and the next morning I was handling them and getting them used to me, and I realized that one of them was getting picked on really bad. Upon closer inspection I found out that it was missing an eye! I went on to start babying that one and helping it to find food, etc. Well, I started calling it Toot sweet, which got shortened to Tootsie. I soon found out that it was a cockeral, but I loved him by that point too much to send him away. He had starting sitting on my shoulders while I was doing chores, and whatnot. One winter I got a foot injury (friend's horse reared and came down on it) and had to wear a plastic boot and use crutches. So I couldn't take care of the birds. So my brother did it, and brought Tootsie to visit me in the driveway (I couldn't go to the coop because of the ice). I trained Tootsie to walk on a leash, which has become a tradition with my BO's here! I just love him and could go on for hours!

A pic of Tootsie in his scraggly-looking, younger years!

Tootsie mostly grown up, trying to woo the ladies...
