A Different Tune...

Hens...
they stride to a different tune...
than roosters

I've been watching our new hens...

so has Big Red, the rooster

Yep...

we got ourselves a couple of hens

hens...love that sound

those chickens I posted on in an earlier post ...

well...they aren't hens

not at all

we finally figured it all out

yeah...the ones below

they will never get around to laying eggs...

just eating and giving Big Red troubles for leader position

and for goodness sake...

all 3 crowing at 5 in the morning

they now have a new home...

but, I miss their pretty looks and...

 running to me like they were in a marathon...

to see what treats I brought them

(our former roosters)

now...

we have two beautiful hens...

not quite fully grown

Big Red is taking good care of them...

watching out for perceived dangers...

giving them food he's found...

leading them back to the coop at dusk

but, he isn't treating them yet, as full grown hens...

if you know what I mean

the hens look like a variety of or maybe mixed bantan...

perhaps, the golden lace bantam

I'm all ears if you know

 the Lord created some pretty nifty birds

chickens are beautiful

so funny to watch


we're waiting on you, little hens
keep marching to that egg laying drum

May your day, or night be filled with God's sweet grace.
