    Blue Bell's Adventure - The 8 Sister Chicks

    This is Blue Bell just last month while strolling in the gardens & backyard. Blue Bell has to be our most feisty chicken and definitely our fastest runner & flyer.(even with clipped wing feathers) Blue Bell has a brightness about her that makes her the most carefree chicken in the bunch, and...
