Chicken Crazy

It seems word has gotten out I am a fan of chickens. Now people
are contacting me for "chicken rescue". My first "guest" is a cute
little bantam. I'm not even sure what breed or how old he is. I'm
guessing he's 8-12 weeks old, but I'm not sure. I don't enough
experience to really know. Cute little fella though...

My new chickens.



After a string of extremely bad luck I've finally managed to hatch some eggs. I must have set about 50+ eggs over four attempts to get these 6 chicks.

It's taken me 4 or more months since I started the project to find success. Recently, a friend joked about eating the chickens. "Are you crazy!" I said. "They are the most expensive chickens it the world. " It's not that I'm sentimental. I'm pragmatic. And these aren't eatin' chickens anyway. They are a fancy rare breed of ornamental chicken. (I bet you didn't even know such a thing existed)

First Post!

In the future this may serve as a front end for my travel blog. We'll see.
