Chickens

In this cute picture (not very clear because taken at night with light from a torch) there are three smallish chicks. We went over there to take some chickens out the hen house and put them in a cage so we could catch them the next day as we wanted to eat them.

Soon after this picture was taken, there were only two little cute little chickens and Poppy CRUNCHED the other one. Grrr - but hard to blame her as it fluttered off v excitingly and she is a hunting dog after all. We fed it to the pigs as it was too small to bother plucking and eating, so not all wasted.

The chicks older brothers were very tasty bbq-ed the next day :)
