Chicks in the Hood

We have been contemplating getting chickens for a while now. It's been unfortunate of course that our friends had to evacuate, but the silver lining to this smoky cloud has been the visit of these lovely ladies.



Beautiful birds



They have been the object of Daisy's interest for a couple of days now.




They've had the same effect on Skye.



However, some of the realities primarily their poop, tempered her enthusiasm.




Skye's nicknamed this one Oreo.






Farmer Jon and friends. Just hanging with our little evacuees.




Goodnight sweet chicks.

the evacuation has been lifted but it keeps coming and going .... Regardless we are going to stay in clear beach air... From what I understand the smoke and ash is so bad that u feel
like ur choking in ur own house!!! Why can't they get a grip... On davids health we go to the doctors and we are praying that the damm pic comes out of his arm!!!
Thanks again for ur help and love... The Bells
