One of my chicks enjoying the sun. Most days I just go outside, sit with them and lose track of the hours.

What kind of chicken is this? She's absolutely beautiful!!!

last night when i went to feed the chickens with my brother we were just finishing and one of the white leghorns got out of the coop into the outside world and he started chasing her trying to get her back in and forgot to close the door i tried to get to that side of the coop before someone else got out but three chickens were out and there is this one that you just touch her feathers and she will spaz and fly in all directions she was one of the ones to get out

took us a 1/2 hour to get her in chased her through the fields and ugghhhh haha finally got them all in!

hahaha ya you gotta love it but it was getting ready to storm i would have left them out because i knew they would come back to the coop but a severe thunderstorm was heading our way and you could hear the booming and you could see the black clouds coming over the mountains so i didn't want to take a chance of losing one of my girls like you said Let the rodeo begin! haha

My girls have been playing a new game with me and they would make great football players they back up all the way in the coop and charge to try to get out any opening of the door. I block they back up and charge again the other side. every morning now. I really think they should play pro.

I went outside yesterday evening to put my girls and little feathers back in their pens. They were in their play pens in the yard. To my dismay two of my Welsummer chicks were out! One of them was sitting right by the pen as if taunting the other chicks of her freedom. My son and I walked the yard a few times looking and listening for the other. After thirty minutes or so I thought I was going to have to crawl through the barbed wire fence that surrounds the pastures behind the house and go searching for her. I finally come across Georgia (the missing chick) as I was headed in to put my pasture shoes on. She was cuddled up in the tall grass near the shrubs. She seemed scared and injured. Had a small scratch on the bone area of one of her wings. Jacob and I doctored her up and brought her in. We fixed her up a cozy little box, she didn't seem to want to move very much and wasn't very vocal. Though when I woke this morning she was chirping up a storm. I sat down with her in the recliner and after pecking at the polka dots on my shirt burrowed in my hair. I'm so thrilled to say that she's been perky and singing all day. I even took her over to my favorite spot to dig worms and let her scratch around. With my help she found two big red wigglers.

Can you find Georgia?


Maybe she thinks I'm mother hen!

Thanks for saying that, I think she's beautiful too. I have around 6 that are similar to her and they are the sweetest chicks but I'm not certain what the are. When I go to see them they will stand on my feet, sit on my lap, follow me around.
