thats cool... we have a friend whos parents have more money then brains and will buy the child things just to make him stop acting up... he came here for a weekend and the same thing happened.. he plays in the coop with my daughter... now when the parents say who do you want to stay with while mom and dad go away.. he starts jumping up and down looking for the phone to see if he can come visit..

Isn't it amazing, you can get the little ones to get their hands dirty with farm animals and can't get them to get their hands dirty with chores...

That's a beautiful story, thanks for sharing!

I know many people who are scared of chickens because they have beaks, or feet, or something odd like that

I wonder if they've ever actually met one in real life.

Wow, great story. I do hope they are still interested come spring and that they get as much pleasure from theirs as they did yours.

You did good!

I sell my eggs..... I had a little girl here yesterday that HATES eggs... they were "yucky" .. her mom brought her for the first time to come and get the weekly eggs... my chickens happen to be out free ranging... my daughter asked this little girl if she wanted to go collect eggs... (my daughter is 9 and this little girl is about 3).. so off they went.. and the little girl somes running back to mom with a blue egg in hand asking if she can go home and eat it...

mom now wants blue eggs and brown eggs weekly...lol
