Awww.....what a cute story about your daughter! Kids sure do cute stuff with animals. A friend here on BYC recently told me a story about her daughter having an encounter with an opossum, it played dead in the driveway for the little girl so she ran inside and got a blanket to cover it. She thought it might get cold while sleeping.
Make yourself at home here and enjoy all the chicken chat!
That is too cute about your daughter! We raised just a few Rhode Island Reds when I was around that age and my Mom said I would sit outside with them in my lap to read to them. I don't remember that part but I do recall them happily sitting in my lap for the longest time without complaint, lol, they are a very people friendly breed for sure. My daughter doesn't read to the chickens like I did but she definitely enjoys spending time with them too!
Welcome, Bet! I believe you can only change your screen name once a year. Nothing wrong with “Bet” though. Better watch out! If you hang around here too long the chicken fever will get you and everything will start to look like a possible chicken coop.
