Chickens on the Farm

The girls always run to the gate when we head to the barn.
They are such friendly chickens, but are also looking
 for some fruit or bread to snack on.

This hen is enjoying the sun in the front of the barn.

How sweet!  The White Leghorn is giving her Rhode Island Red friend a hug!

Champ is checking this hen out as she gets comfortable on the hay.

Mikey also stopped by to see the hen.

Kitten doesn't seem to mind the chickens and they're also comfortable around him.

We had a truckload of hay parked under the roof of the barn
 and within minutes the hens had climbed onto the hay and then
 proceeded to climb onto the rafters above the alpacas!

This hen is tight rope walking high above the boys.

This is one daring hen!

This hen got on top of our storage cabinet in the barn and
 was acting like she wanted to nest up there!

The next day she got up there again, so I set her up with
 some hay and she laid an egg!

The chickens never cease to amaze us with their antics.  They're a lot of fun to have on the farm!
