This chicken is not dead

[SnackMeat]

We have a fan set up for them and it's funny seeing up to three jostle other ones out of the way so they can stick their heads right up against the fan cover. I think they like their crests waving in the firm breeze.

The Polish are our worst offenders of INDY sleeping.

I love this about Polish.

I dedicate this thread to those chickens that make your heart skip a beat.
Post pictures of your sun & dirt bathing beauties. The ones that give you a fright at first glimpse.
I'll start with Chippy. She was the master at playing dead and making my heart skip a beat.

The close-up needs to be submitted for either POW or "Caption This!"

It's from the Frizzle gene. Betty's would do that as well. They would start out mostly complete and then as the year went on, she would wind up with talons as they "wore out".

You can see her talons starting to come out at this point.

Naked necks are my go to chicken. I love them so much. I've never met one that wasn't friendly.

Like Eli-too here?

She tries for that prime location most nights. The Dorothy, Rose and usually Blanche. Not sure who is in the corner sleeping.
