Try this again

Well, friday night my chickies met their demise. Poor chickies....they tried so hard to run away from that big black fluffy dog. Yes, that would be my dog Texas. I was really mad at him for a couple of days but now I am better. Instinct bites sometimes. Oh well. Will try to find some more girls to add to the unlived in coop. I will post pictures when we get them. Hopefully they will last a lot longer......

Here they are!!!!



These are our precious chickies! They are so precious. We started with 3 but unfortunately lost one over the weekend. Hopefully the other 2 will live for a long time. So far so good....
Their names are Chicken Little (black one), Daisy (smaller red one). Bacon was the other red one...may she rest in peace ;).
