Farm Fresh


Playing along with Make My Monday Challenge Blog,
where our inspiration is 'Pets'.
We have lived on a couple of acres in California'a Central Valley
(Clovis), for 25 years. This is our first year sharing space with a dozen
chickens. Pullets, they're called. They joined us before Easter.
'Us', includes me, hubby, son, son's wife, son & wife's 2 boys, 4 & 1 1/2, 
3 cats, 2 ducks, 35 koi, and 5 rabbits.

Meet Joan and Jet


The chickens, ducks and rabbits live happily together in a coop,
and have imprinted me as their mother!

All to explain why I chose my chickens as the pet to showcase on my card 
for the challenge.

Here are some recent pix of the new family, growing fast, btw!

Sally was kind enough to pose.

Polly wants to know if I brought a treat.

Hopefully all 12 chickens are truly egg laying pullets (female).
If not, and there's a few roosters (20% chance), we'll all be early risers soon!
