I just want a chicken that had a normal life and got to forage outdoors daily, which is why I’ll be raising my own for meat.

Plus I can never eat store bought chicken after my sweet baby Eleanor passed away, and the miserable life that Cornish crosses are forced to endure

I like looking at pretty chicken pics online, but I'm pretty happy with my Easter Egger girls at home. This is Blue, technically an olive egger, and a show-off. She came in the house yesterday for beauty pics now that her feathers are back in after molting. She's a bit over 8 pounds now, and the boss. She even took down a giant rat a few weeks ago that dared to get in their coop when it was freezing cold for over a week here.

Agreed, the most beautiful chicken is the one who is: ranging in your back yard, chasing down grasshoppers, dustbathing in what used to be your front flower bed, plucking the dew laden tender grass blades first thing in the morning, snuggled down in the nest while she quietly makes your breakfast. Or the roo, with the sun glinting off his feathers, as he tidbits his favorite gals.

Since it was mentioned... I live less than an hour from My Pet Chicken....

Only thing is, they won't let you pickup. I asked, since it would be cheaper to pickup than deliver w/in the state.

Wahhh! The 10 day weather forecast has suddenly has added an ice storm for my trip-to-Cackle day next week! Maybe it will change again.
Cuz we aren't going in an ice storm. So my Appenzeller Spitzhaubens are up in the air right now....
Meanwhile, yesterday I looked up and saw this ember in the wood stove, shaped exactly like a chicken, it even has 2 legs! ---this could be a sign, but whether it means 'no worries, it will happen,' or 'your dream goes up in smoke,' I don't know....yet.

and the Phoenix rises from the ashes...the forecast for my Cackle trip has already changed to a morning low of 41 and a high of 46. We shall see. I am open to whatever will be. I can't say I haven't gone thru many what-was-I-thinking-ordering-more-chickens moments....Okay so no conclusions yet.... we'll know next week and I'll report back.

I know my mom has “Why on earth did you buy more chickens when I told you not to!” moments.
