This chicken is not dead

[2ndTink]

My husband has absolutely no idea how many chickens are in our backyard. Truthfully, I don't know myself. I just count them in groups and never add the total. That way when asked, I can just say "I'm not really sure."

That was my tactic too, until I added up everyone about 2 months ago and kinda panicked.

And now I'm setting eggs again this Saturday. Anyone want some chicks in 4 weeks? I'm sure they'll provide you with fresh "This chicken is not dead" opportunities.

As promised...I am pretty sure even though "dead" he might be drooling

So cute! If I were younger, I'd buy a couple of goats. They are so much fun.

Lol! That's his mama. He is her mini me and they are inseparable. She forgot she had 2 other after she weaned them and only hangs out with him not the girls.

To anyone but me, all of my chickens look alike. They're all little, red bantams, mostly Nankins with one red EE and a couple of her pullets for some extra color in the egg basket. Like most chickens, they don't stay stationary long enough to be counted during the day and sleep in a long, agglomerated line of roosted feathers at night. I'm the only one who knows how many I have . . . and I'm not telling!

Not "dead," but definitely dead-to-the-world. Both of these young ladies went "out" for a good hour. Show days are draining!
