Silly Fluffy!

Still not mean looking. Just like these chickens can't look mean even when attacking from above.

First off - love the spots and pencilling on Jax

Ok well if you’re asking if Tundra is a boy - I would say a pullet. But then forever the optimist. Meanwhile that’s a lovely beard and muffs!!!

I have always said you have a beautiful flock

It’s a bald eagle!

It’s a mild day today, 20C (68F) but very windy.

Silver decided my socks and leggings were just way too clean.

She is not a light weight!

I'm seeing saddle feathers. Looks like a Cockerel.

Not Quite a Pony

We went to a corn maze yesterday, our first.

They had a chicken petting area with bantam Polish. Many people who have never seen a chicken got to hold one.

Wow that corn is tall!

Oh my bantam polish….. so many chooks to choose from! So little time to have them all

She was trying. Check out that wingspan! They can really fly.

Now that you have some Polish ladies, I imagine there will be polish chicks hatching next year.
