Keeping Chickens Newsletter

Brooke Hamar : Hi Gina! I always enjoy reading your newsletters and seeing pictures of other peoples Chickens, well here is my favorite of my 18 month old Buff Orpington chickens. My Mom caught this while leaving my house. The girls were all out roaming the property on a warm summer afternoon and she caught this beautiful heart! My Husband is in the Navy so I will not be able to keep chickens for years, but these pictures will always remind me of our special pets. We hand raised 9 hens with my small children and this breed has been the best for us. They are so dog like in behavior and tame and calm. We just love our Buffs. They are going through their first moult right now so they are looking bad right now, but we still love them! They even have a big old bunny that live in the coop with them! Brooke Hamar, Maine
