hangin with mah peeps

I got chickens! The best way to get eggs... cruelty-free, hormone-free, antibiotic-free and evil-free. Also a great way to waste time as I can pretty much stare at them for very long periods of time and be totally entertained. Although these gals need a few months before they lay any breakfast, here they are. Presenting Petunia (tuna) and Pearl.

Petunia getting nosy (beaky?) regarding the camera



Pearl being calm and lady-like as always, showing off her new wing feathers.


Pearl is the most mellow baby bird in history, and a natural model.


Here is Pearl again posing peacefully with a tic-tac box for scale.


and heeeere's 'Tuna looking ambivalent and wanting to get back to the food dish

  1. Kristin, your chicks are so tiny and cute! I don't think that I would be able to handle those two! How do your cats get along with them?
    I have gotten eggs from a family at church that has a bunch of hens...they are pretty yummy.
    Wait a minute here, I thought you didn't like eggs???
