Birds

Quincy is very proud of her hens (and Loudy the rooster).  She is especially happy now that she is getting eggs (2 per day so far).   
Ryan seems to like them too.  
The black chicken is Preston's. Her name is Pluto.  She is so shiny and pretty!   Quincy bought the brown hen next to her at the fair with her premium money.  Her name is Squirrel and she is Quincy's pride and joy.   Quincy thinks they are friends....I don't have the heart to tell her that the chicken is too lazy to run more than actually being friendly.  
The broilers are getting big already.  They have feathers and basically lay beside the feeder and eat all day (and most if the night too).  They are kind of smelly so nobody is attached!  
Except maybe the chicken girl.  
And to go with the theme of birds....Madison made duck treats for Harper's preschool class.   This is 'D' week.  Harper cannot wait for tomorrow!
