And I thought my bug was growing fast. The girls are all bird-like all of the sudden.

Peep and poop. That is the life of my chickens.

Dee is definitely not a Dee (the Ameraucana, the chick with the dark stripe on her head). At first I thought she was grandmotherly but now she is just a big, fat bully boss princess. So that is her name for now: big fat bully boss princess. Bossy P for short.

It is cold and snowy in western Montana so these birds are the little splash of spring a girl needs.

Yay! I love your chickens. And they’re growing so quickly. In just 9 days they’re almost unrecognizable.

Chris keeps badgering me to get chickens, but they’re against our CC&R (codes, covenants, and restrictions). His argument is that there’s no enforcement agency because we don’t have an HOA, so hell, we should get chickens! I wish it was that easy.

Cute chicks! We tried chickens a couple of times, but now the chicken yard is my composting center, ha.
