Opal



This is Shi and her hen "Opal"... She loves this poor girl to death.. Literally. She walks behind her real slow and then eases up on her and grabs a tail feather (or two), and then slowly grabs the rest of her... Opal never makes a sound... She goes just about every where with Shi... I think Shi thinks she is her baby (doll).... The poor ol' girl just sits there with her mouth wide open, can't even work up even a cluck, by then end of the day... Shi even puts her in the swing. Lord only knows what is going on in Opals head. I am sure she is thinking, either this kid is trying to kill me or she just doesn't even care..... The other Rooster (Willy) and hen (Hazel) just look up and walk away. They don't even care at all... What is wrong with them???? Poor Opal needs rescueing.. CHICKENS and CHILDREN, they are too funny to watch... I can't figure out what is going on in either of there minds... Or why they do the things they do.. I have been missing the tops off of my green bean plants and couldn't figure out what was going on. I put the powder bug stuff on them and it was still happening. Lo' and behold one day I see Mr. Willy Rooster sticking his head through the fence eating them.... UGHHHHHH !!!!! Now you know what I was thinking...... Need I say more. He is still around eating the edge of my garden... I kinda gave up on the garden idea anyhow... Maybe next year...... Well off I go to milk my goat.. God Bless...
