What is your friendliest Chicken? What breed is it?

[BantyChickenLuv]

This is my friendliest chicken. She's a Frizzle Bantam Cochin and is the sweetest thing ever. I have also been told she has some of the nicest frizzling too.

Her name is Flo.

Mine is my darling Blanca!!! Light Brahma




I never thought Id enjoy chickens sooo much! Who would have thought they have such awesome personalities?

My two favorite hens are hatch mates, both Black Star (sex links).
Named Ester the Pester and Robin.
They are very personable and chatty. And they are nice to new birds that join the flock.

Thank you. That pic was taken back in June before she started laying so her comb and wattles are bigger now.

We have a Hamburg rooster named Hammy. He was so good when we trimmed his spurs the other day. I massaged his comb and he fell asleep!

Ours is "Darla" our Polish. She has always followed me around ever since she was a little chick. She's got more personality going on than a psych ward! I leaned a trick for our chicks from my Sis's groomer in R.I. She uses a stocking cut horizontally to make rings, like a rubber band, to put bows in her dogs hair and what not. So I started using them to pull the feathers upwards on my polish and sultan chickens "hairdo's" so they can see better. Less constricting than a rubber band so they forget it's there pretty quickly, and it doesn't pull on their feathers either. Kudos to Olivia for the Idea and to my Sis for the old stocking. Now my girls are all ready for exercise in the yard with their custom Susan Summers work out 80's headbands.

ps. I kow the spanish bayonetts look pretty wicked and at first I though it was going to be a bad idea for them, but as it turns out they have carefully created little pathways aroud and behind them making a great spot for them in the shade and it is great protection from predators above. Also my friends wonder about them and the Angel Trumpet flower, simply put I am lucky so far. The bugs pay it more attention then the chicks, the dreaded yellow giant grasshoppers to be exact for ya'll in FL. If I did ever see them pecking it or the poinsetta's that miraculesly stay alive outside I would move them out of their reach of course.

This one really caught my eye. The moment I saw the top picture I had images of Lucille Ball dancing around in my head.

Darla is lovely. =)

Ours is a Dominique named Pepper. Tonight hubby took out some lettuce to give to the ducks and chickens. Just as soon as his bottom hit the chair Pepper jumped right up on his leg and went to town on the snack. She loves to get scratched on her neck just above where her wings attach to her body. She will droop her head and nearly fall over asleep. She truly believes she should get special treatment even though she is not head of the pecking order.
