I mean I really, really LOVE my chickens!
They have so much personality and are so fun to watch. They love their human family and give us the most delicious eggs! I am really having the hardest time waiting for our new babies to arrive. They'll be here on or around April 10th. We're getting 3 more day old baby Buff Orpingtons. The excitement is growing in our household. I'll soon be getting the brooder ready for some new little peeps. Spring is so fun for chicken fanciers!!
Guess who my photographer was. It was Tara, and she's not bad behind the lens! I added the texture though.
She did amazing! Great pics!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Gretchen! I'll tell her you said so.
DeleteGreat pics, and it helps that you are so pretty!!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet thing to say Carolyn! Thank you!!
DeleteWonderful photos! We love our girls too. We have one BO (Dorothy) and she is definitely a character. Then we have five others all different breeds. Chicken ownership is so rewarding!
ReplyDeleteIt really is Alexis. I just love having them. Who would have thought that they could bring so much joy! Certainly not me!!
DeleteStopping by from Fresh Eggs Daily on FB! Wonderful photos! We incubated chicken eggs last spring and ended up with 7 hens and 3 roosters. The roosters have been rehomed a short distance away, but the hens are QUITE spoiled! I always thought of them as "just chickens" until we hatched them!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean. I too always thought of them as just chickens. Amazing how owning a few can really change that perspective!
DeleteTalented photographer! ...and you, Kelly, are as adorable as your girls (the human ones) ! So glad you're bringing in more adventures. Can't wait to see the pix. hmm. Last time, it was floating pullets.. this time....snorkeling?
ReplyDeleteThank you Lauren. :) As for our new little peeps...I'm thinking that the older hens will teach the new ones Synchronized Swimming.
DeleteTara did a fabulous job! I especially love the last one of you holding the hen up and the light falling behind you. You look great, Kelly!
ReplyDeleteThanks Denise. Lighting is key at my age!!
DeleteBeautiful photos of a LOVELY lady and precious chickie girl! Good work, Tara!

DeleteI see that You really look after Your chickens. It is important - if animal is well maintaned, it will be health and happy.
ReplyDeleteGreetings for You :)
You are right Zim. Also, if they are happy, they will lay extra nice tasting eggs!
DeleteHI Kelly,
ReplyDeleteThat's great that you will be adding 3 little ones to your backyard flock! I completely understand the building excitement :) I'm not sure if you saw this post of mine, but you can see our new chicks here http://mykitchenmyvice.blogspot.com/2012/03/theyre-here-first-week-for-our-chicks.html

Thanks for commenting on my blog! I'm with you on the chicken thing. Plans are in the works for our first flock coming this year ... My best chicken memory is winning "most unusual pet" at the county fair for my bantum roo Cunningham. I think I was 7. Look forward to following your tales!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome!! We are getting 3 more tomorrow. The girls and I are really excited. Roman and Lauren are going to just LOVE it!
