This chicken is not dead

I do love bullies

I'm a convert. He is my first and I adore him. He has such a great personality.
Here he is with his "sister" Maggie.

Amber was a Dark Partridge Silkie chick that collapsed a lot. Never knew if she was dying or just teasing me.

It turned out she had foot deformities & handicapped & we only had her a month before she passed. She would push her way under my hand ~ I guess for comfort but I didn't mind

We suspected she was not quite "right" & we pampered her not wanting to put her thru vet tests when it was suspected her internal organs were not processing food correctly either.

She was an amazing little chick & would pull on our socks or pant leg to be picked up.

The special ones have a place in your heart forever

I love your bullies I had an Olde Boston Bulldogge as a kid & would've got one when I was an adult except the breeders started breeding more "pug" noses & I prefer a square jaw like the olden days.

My Jiggy ~ I cried as a kid when the breeder said Olde Boston's had cropped tails & ears so my Dad told the breeder to leave the baby pup's tail/ears au naturale!

That is adorable

I have a video of her but no YouTube account
Apparently she got mad when someone else tried her swing

I had a pullet a few years ago named Gucci who would drop over and play dead laying with her face beak down into the ground.

Headless chicken! The black one is kind of runty and I'm still half expecting it to just keel over one day, so bonus points for being the only dead-looking one in this pic.

Gucci does a good impersonation of "died under mysterious circumstances"
