Blue-Laced Red Wyandottes can be broody little girls but look how cute their bloomers are! These two are sisters, Thelma & Louise. They go everywhere together!

I try to give my girls at least a few hours to free range every day. Makes for very happy girls! Plus they are so fun to watch!You can gather a lot of info by observing your girls on a regular basis.

She has raised all seven of her girls.  She is so incredibly gentle with the chicks.  The older chickens really trust her.  For such a little gal she is able to hold them securely and gently.  

I find animal husbandry so important to a part of a child's growing up.  It teaches children empathy and responsibility.  

I see a little chicken sitter in our future...
