Family Update

Remember that post with the momma who had twins and she wasn't so sure she wanted them both? Well, if you lock them up together soon enough she is not as likely to deny one of them. Luckily, Papaw got all three locked up together and she ended up accepting them both. It was funny, she would smell one of them, then the other and if only a momma cow could talk I think she would say, "What is going on here?! This one smells just like my baby!! How did this happen?"

Here they are now, beautiful, healthy, curious, playful almost two month olds.

This is their sister from last year's set of twins that still thinks she is a lap baby. She is a spoiled pet. She wants her neck scratched and will follow you around until you pay attention to her or feed her some "good food." Her name is Tippy because she has a white tip on her tail. She is very sweet and quite a beauty.

Another family who welcomed new additions was this little chicken. She has several babies that she ferociously protects. She will puff out her feathers and peck at you when you try to catch one of the babies. She flew all the way up my arm trying to make me leave her babies alone. She corrals them in a corner and then DARES you to try to get one.

She is a good momma. She doesn't care how many she has (not like momma cow). She will take care of however many hatch under her. But...if you are hatched by another momma - WATCH OUT!!!
