And we got two new hens! Meet Agnes (aka Mrs. Miyagi because she can catch flies with her beak) and Loretta. Don't ask us which one is which. They are a little skittish as you can see from the photo, but are settling in nicely.
Taking the day off tomorrow to go canoeing and swimming. It's been HOT here and we are itchin' to get the boat out and feel some cold water on our skin. Til' next time!
Hubby and I can't tell the chickens apart either (granted, we usually have 6-8 of them), which the kids find hard to believe because they can tell them apart. Sometimes when we get a batch of 25 roosters for meat the kids can tell all of them apart too. It's weird: must be a kids' not-so-full brains versus the adults way-too-full brains. ;)
ReplyDeleteAs far as I can tell, these ladies look identical. But, one is tending to be more bold when we throw veggie scraps in. So maybe I will be able to tell them apart soon in that regard? But, yes, kids always seem to notice the details I tend to miss :)
