This is the cool thing about chickens

[Chirpy]

I don't know if there is anything better for total de-stressing and relaxing than to sit outside and watch my animals. Having the chickens clucking around my feet, often chasing a grasshopper through my legs, or a goat jumping on my lap, my dog hanging his head on my lap (when the goats not hogging it

), kittens and cats laying around here and there, seeing the horses, llamas and cattle out in the fields and my children playing all over the place. That's the best it gets!!

I feel sorry for people who live in penthouses (I'm sure they love it) and don't get to enjoy this part of life.

I've got 2 guineas and 4 barred rocks (3 cockerels, 1 pullet) and they follow me all over the yard. One cockerel in particular seems to like to follow my feet very closely. Don't know if that's good or bad, but it's cute at the moment. They're 2 months old. I think I could get used to this chicken thin.
