Newbie Chicken Chronicles #1

[jcbydesign]

My three girls are four months old and are now starting to do some of the cutest things!
Everyday, they free range the back yard but today I went out and they had gone back into the bottom half of their coop, where the sun was shining in, and they were cuddled together, covered in shavings and having a 'spa moment a la chicken'. So darn cute!

When I tried to get their picture they stomped out in high tailed indignation!

LOL don't take it personally. Mine turned up their noses at the layer pellets I offered and instead tried some cat food I was giving to my dog. (Long story....we ran out yesterday and forgot to buy some more

) I'm sad to say they liked it

Sounds just like my chickens! Once my EE was taking a rust bath, and my little Cochin mix was kicking dirt on her, almost like she was giving her a spa treatment! I ran inside to get my camera, but I couldn't find it of course, and once I did the had moved On to attacking tomatoes....
