Painted Lady Farm

chicks 002

Hope you aren’t tired of chicken pictures….yet.  Because here’s a few from a day at my Painted Lady Farm.

This happened so fast…it’s all blurry but Dash really wants to play with ‘his’ girls!  They are not that crazy about it.

Awwh, come on….just for a few minutes….

All right, I’ll just be safe here with my Mom.

As ‘big brother’… I need to keep an eye out for my sisters.

The girls, Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart and Rosa Parks (way in the back) were checking out the Secret Garden between the house and the garage.

Those flowers look tasty!

Thanks, Dash, you are a wonderful ‘big brother’!

    What a sweet face Dash has there in the last picture! I see you are letting them roam wild and free!! Your girls have more wattle and comb than mine do. I am still ever so patiently (not) waiting for my first eggs!!!

    We have a toy poodle who loves following his feathered sisters around the garden too!
    You can never have too many chicken photos!

    Well you know me, I never tire of seeing your girls. Can you say "HOT LEGS"...
    They are so beautiful, can tell they are well taken care of.

    And smart too, they know a good thing and would not dare to run off.

    Dash is in training for becoming a hen herder.

    Dash is doing a good job as the older brother, he has to watch out for the younger sisters. These pictures are adorable.

    Too cute! When I had my chickens, my Maltese was none to happy that they were around. But she was quite a prima donna and thought that ALL attention should be directed toward HER. ;)
