We got a bunch of chickens from a guy that really had no time for them. They were kept in a small run with a dog house (no place to roost!). We got 7 total. 4 red colored hens, 2 white colored hens, and one special princess. A princess who we named Pepper. She stood out from all the others not only due to her mixture of red and white feathers, but due to her feet and walk. Her feet curl inwards and she somewhat hobbles around, but it's never stopped her. She'll jump up in the nest boxes and lay with the best of them despite the fact the other chickens (before coming to our house) picked at her back relentlessly. She's just starting to grow her feathers back now, but even without them... she's the prettiest princess there ever was.
