    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    Quote: I love that song, though I'm not a real country music fan. The reason is that the love of my life is named Tommy, too. We met, were engaged in three weeks, married in two months, and now have been married 33 years. I can SO relate to that song! Those two are best buds and I love that...

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    Quote: LOL, I often do! I always tell him that he's my sweet baby rooster and he looks into my eyes with that soft expression he has. I could almost swear he winks at me. He's such a doll. He looked so happy when Gypsy was in her makeshift nest beside him. He was laying as close to her as he...

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    She did it again today, see? I think this may be her permanent nest. When the door is closed and she cant get in, she runs up and down the fence and in front of the door, looking for a way to get to Zane. Here are three eggs, left to right: Nora the Blue Ameraucana, Gypsy the Black Ameraucana...

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    Make no mistake, if Zane's zest for life, that spark he has, ever went out, we'd let him go. Right now, he's alert and responsive and talkative, he crows his heart out at times, he sends out alarms for the flock, etc. Yesterday, I went out and he was in the non-tip dog bowl we use for his food...

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    No, he'll never be able to be with the flock again, not as long as I have the other two roosters. They want to challenge him now and if there was no fence between, he'd be beaten up or killed, I'm afraid. Zane will never have use of that leg, so he also cant be left outside a covered pen or he's...

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    I wanted to get a picture of her egg beside his cage, but it was raining and dark and I got busy rounding up all the girls. I'll check in with their saga from time to time.

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    I have put her in there. She just eats all his food, LOL. And he grabs her, trying to mate. Sometimes, she'll squat but lately, she doesn't want her binge interrupted.

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    She did it! She laid her pretty blue egg in that makeshift nest beside her Zaners. I bet he was happy for her company for the hour or more she was in with him.

    A Chicken Love Story....Gypsy and Zane

    My black Ameraucana hen, Gypsy, is in love with Zane. She runs with the main laying flock, is mated by Dutch and Mace, Zane's brothers, but this is where I find her all the time. She adores Zane, always has. And I think he likes the company. It's very wet today so he couldnt go outside (pardon...
