Recently a vicious raccoon chewed its way into the chicken coop and killed one of our hens. We had also lost one or two back in the fall due to age and/or predators. Heather's friendly little bantam just disappeared last fall.
So, it was time to add to the family.
Five new little chicks, 2 of them are bantams. I don't know what kind the others are.
Here is Heather holding one of the bantams.
We have 3 of the older girls left. A white one wandered out of this shot.
Heather, all ready for softball practice,which as you can see, ended up getting rained out. She doesn't need to wear her shirt to practice, but she "wanted to."






What did you do with the racoon in the cage, once you had caught it???
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your new chicks and spring vacation week!
The raccoon did not have a happy ending.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised to see those raccoon eyes looking out of the cage!! The little chicks are so cute, but Heather in her uniform is cutest of all!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear the racoon story. :-) Cutie patootie Heather!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got the raccoon. The little chicks are cute! I like your shirt, Heather!
