I've had rabbits, cats, ...I've never had chickens. I've had rabbits, cats, rats, hamsters, cockatiels, and a dog when I was little.<BR/><BR/>The friend where I used to board/lease a horse at her stable, she has a few chickens that just wander the farm. Their numbers increase and decrease as chicks hatch and I'm guessing the occasional coyote has a snack. But there was one chicken, she was my favorite and would almost eat out of my hand. Her name was Skitty and if you called for the chickens (having a handful of grain of course) she would just come a running! It was hilarious to watch those chicken legs go.<BR/><BR/>Could be fun to have a couple of chickens to eat bugs and hang out with Cody, but I dunno if they'd know to stick around.<BR/><BR/>That's too bad you're still sick :( Shearing day sounds fun. Same friend, they used to have a few sheep. A couple of summers I remember a group of us would gang up on poor Scotty (the ram) and shear him. None of us could hold him by ourselves so we'd kind of end up with one half sitting on his head, one at the back end, and I'd get to handle the clippers. He put with so much, lol.<BR/><BR/>Are your horses shedding? I was petting Cody this evening before putting his blanket back on and the hair was just floating off with each stroke.<BR/><BR/>Hope you feel better soon!!froglanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686654151450524098noreply@blogger.com
