My first ever flock. All females. Two and a half weeks old, we did not know we would fall in love. We are such whimpos. If a predator gets one, Imma gonna cry. About half of them come when called, some give me a gentle peck to keep the chick service moving, and they are chest fighting. I don't know why.
This is first time they ever went out. When they saw the first bug, there was a lot of backing up and talking about it. The brave Tania ate the bug!
When they came in, they took thier first dust bath. Jewel got so into it, she was totally sidewayd, legs and head splayed out, letting me Gooch goo her on her stomach and feet. I swear she as laughing!
Who knew? Does anyone stop eating chicken after t hey get to know chickensz?

Welcome to addiction!! Yes, some stop eating chicken. I have not stopped, but my goal is to raise broilers so that I can eat meat from chicken that have not been abused and had an awesome life.....


........But for now, I have chickens I would do a LOT to protect and will never be eaten. One of them, Jace, just follows me everywhere and shares popsicles with me.... She is my birdie love. (And the inspiration for my username- she is a bantam)

Right now, my chickens are pets..... I have an eight year old hen, Emma, who never lays..... She is just around for companionship. Chickens make great stress relivers!

I can't hardly stand market bought chicken. Compared to fresh healthy farm fed chicken, it just tastes off, you know? Fact is, for chicken, if we haven't gone to get farm raised, I pretty much eat that morning star stuff. haha I call it fake chicken. Last week the wife and I clicked on a link and got something we didn't expect and now I hug my spoiled chickens a lot more. I won't get to the details, just it was horrible.
I tell you, when you get to seeing your selected birds as pets that give you breakfast...it's a whole new world. Best thing for a bad day or general off kilter mood is chickens. None of our other pets make me laugh so much, they're feathered comedians and they don't even know how funny they are. Especially when somebody gots themselves a lizard...that's a show to watch! Or if you wander in with half a head on your shoulder forgetting you got lunch in one hand an chicken feed in the other. Bet me they don't know the difference! Your hand with YOUR lunch turns into their supper faster than you can say "Whoa there !"
