    My Grandma has chickens and I help her with them when I go and stay. I really like the goats in your banner picture aswell. From Findlay

    These are all so beautiful. I am wondering if you have names for all of them like you do the goats 🙂

      There’s only a couple of birds with names. It’s too hard to tell them apart.

      The hen is a barred rock-black and white. Don’t know why the color is off.

    Beautiful birds, but I think the peacock steals the show with those brilliant colours.

      Yes, he is a very flashy guy, even though he’s just starting to grow his tail feathers back in.

      They were funny. I don’t usually see them in that building, so I don’t know what they were checking out.

    I used to have a great place to go visit birds until I moved. I haven’t found another cool place like that yet.

      I am really lucky to just walk out my back door to find all these great birds. Hope you find somewhere to visit them again.

      They really are beautiful with all their variety. Getting to know them all, I have to say, I think the ducks are my favorites.
