Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

[Chickeria]

Oh... and the tiny silkie chick is sooooo adorable! I think she's just a bantam bantam!

Pictures please

Just finished the video... now i want to add paprika to the chicken feed

Something funny happened. We did have a chives in a pot, such one one gets in supermarkets or health stores. After having read that chickens can eat chives, we decided to give it to them to keep them occupied and placed the pot in their run so they could start to 'work' on it. First day they didn't seemed to be very happy with or impressed by the chives. But then the following two days they gave that little pot a steady haircut till there was just a hedgehog cut left. This weekend we did have soft boiled eggs for breakfast and my egg tasted unmistakeably of chives
We decided that next time we will place chives only for an hour a day in the run

I do have a question - my Brioche always scratches at the waterer (the ring formed part where the reachable water is in) when going to drink. She is the only one doing this (the waterer is such a regular one for chickens, standing elevated on three little legs) - does anybody have somebody doing this, too?

...And here is a funny picture of Snowman, today it has been very stormy, that's why he looks so 'driven'

Here is a pic of everyone in the big run, while giant Esmeralda wants to play in the mini coop

You can see tiny girl there in the center (that's her fluffy butt facing the camera).. i had to put steps in so she could reach the water and get back into the mini coop.

I might... how does a giant poop land in the elevated waterer otherwise?

She really is tiny compared with the others
Her little butt is super cute, but I would love to see her face, too
I love Esmeralda's spirit!
