I got to bunny sit for my friend on Sunday, & therefore held Arlo the whole time. He has no spurs on his legggies, no wattles & so I believe he is actusally a she. He or she sat in my arms for 5 hours & happily peeped, ate a bug off my arm, had a nap in the grass with me & 'helped' spray the bunnies with cold water when it got too hot for them. Arlo's feathers on his head are pointy & he has big tail feathers. Arlo getsa round using the wings instead of the feeties which are useless to him or her. I'm so proud of Arlo. I suppose Arlo is not a bad name for a girlie anyway. Still he or she doesn't crow. He's about 3 months old now & would rather sit on a pillow than on hard rocks onn the ground, the spoiled kid! He enjoyed a radish & part of an apple with his or her chicken food. I nibbled on his leg & told him what a nice drumstick it was, & he chirped, obviously enjoyed my silliness! I bought a purple brush & he (or she!) actually likes being brushed!! Arlo enjoys all the cats on Dede's property even tho they make me get hives.,

Is there anyone near me who has a scanner? I've got adorable pictures of my babe enjoying life but need a buddy to send them too in the mail. please PM me\\

Arlo is a Millie Fleur, Belgium/ or just "Mommy's Widdle Wuvie"

I got depressed last night & gobbled up half a pin t of chocolate ice cream! MMMMMMMMMMM!!!

my chicken has no spurs on his legs. The lady I got him from says he is a cockeral. I thought cockerels have leg spurs. Arlo does not, so is he a she?

I got to bunny-sit on a hot day--I held Arlo the whole time since he lives at Dede's house. Since bunnies have fur, they need to be hosed down with cold water or else they get heatstroke. I held the hose with one hand & Arlo in the other. He sat on my lap for a long time.

I'm depressed, so I'm eating ice cream which is tasty.

I am incorrigible when it comes to smoochy baby talk & giggling over cute furry animals.
