Chickens!

[plebayo]

Oh, do you know what they are? I don't know what any of them are. I know that my friend hand raised them from babies, but they aren't very friendly with me. At least they don't attack me... I have another friend who's rooster attacks her on a regular basis.

It looks like the rooster is a Buff Orphington, The other three are a Brahma, Black Giant [but it could be an australorp], and a silver laced wyandotte.

How wonderful for you! I love having chickens! The fresh eggs are sooo good. The chickens love when you weed the garden, too, and the greens make the eggs so golden. Just please make sure to keep them safe from raccoons.

Cheers, from

A chook is a chicken

We've had chickens growing up, they used to squat down so we could pick them up
