LOTS of new Pics!!

[FamilyOfChickens]

:Camera-happy? Who? Me?

One of our roos, Ringo (as in Starr).

Harrisson (as in George

) our other rooster

That's Pumpkin- the only orange-legged EE/Americauna/whatever.

Ginger Pye's a real cutie.

Half-tail. She only has one tail-feather!

She's obsessed with my feet- whenever I go in the coop I have to be careful not to step on her, poor girl.

Group shot!

Our roos are a little camera-shy!!!

Bull-dozing.

Little Flame.

Do a little dance

They're all running towards me when I called them.

ADORABLE!!! That's all I can say. My girls start a stampede when I call their names too

What breed is your white and black hen? She's beautiful!

 

[FamilyOfChickens]

I have 2 or 3 of those black and white hens, actually.

They're Americaunas (EE's, whatever.

) Then the last three pics are our gold sex links- all the others are the Americaunas.


I think yesterday was be-friendly-to-the-people day. All the Americaunas were WAY more friendly than normal. (Probably due to the fact that I had given them watermelon and bread the day before....

They're only just starting to go for treats, really, while the gsl's are absolutely crazy over snacks. Their favorites are hamburger or hotdog buns, followed closely by ears of corn.)

Everybody was absolutely fascinated by the camera. The chick front and center in the....seventh pic from the top was actually terrified by it.

She would hold absolutely still, her eyes all wide, and then when I turned away go and hide behind someone else.

You have such beutiful birds. I have to get pics up soon before I sell a few of mine tomorrow.

Nice pictures! Love the black and white one, she is pretty!

 

[FamilyOfChickens]

Thank you!!!

Everyone seems to like the black and white one/s.

Any ideas for names? Since there's two that look almost identical, and there's really no distinguishing qualities, they don't have names. Any ideas?

And as for the roos, I can't quite get out of the habit of calling them Red and Purple.

Anyone know what I ought to name them? Red's shy and quiet, he still doesn't crow, while Purple's Mr. Tough-guy and the head honcho.

Thing 1 and Thing 2?

My sister named some of our fishies that, so I'm not sure about those two.

Well, considering the Beatles tendencies in the names for the roos (LOL), how 'bout Yoko and Linda for the white girls? Or Daisy, maybe. (and Maisy)
