1 Thought I'd take a few chicken family photos for their holiday card :) This is Jersey and Merlin. He seems to like his latest hen! She can fly over the fence to get out into the bigger garden area, whereas the other hens can't. So they go on "dates" like this every day.
2 Squirrel came to visit!
3 Merlin looking at me funny :) See how big his comb is getting?
4 What are you looking at?
5 Holly Ramona (L) and Allison Audrey (R).
6 Hi Holly Ramona!
7 A little hen meeting!
8 They are so fluffy and cute. That's one of the new "peeps" standing near the door. They are growing! Everyone has finally assimilated pretty well into the flock. Not easy to add new hens, especially a group of young ones followed by a big hen.
9 A Rhode Island Red on the left - they are very good layers, and good for meat, too.
10 Eating some porridge on their date! Merlin does some really cute clucks to tell the hens when he finds something good. He calls them over to share it!
