A Feathery Friend


So Mo and Jasmine can finally stand each other. All today they've been wandering around the yard by each others side and laying down in the shade. It's adorable! Now I can take away the protective cage Jasmine used to sleep in, and put my three arriving chicks into it. I'm gonna spend a couple of minutes every day deciding names for my new chickens, and the ones that are still unnamed that I've had for a few weeks now.
I don't know which chick it'll belong to, but I want to name one Merryweather. Like after Sleeping Beauty's fairy friend, and also that's the camp my dad went to as a young boy. Camp Merryweather.
So, So far I have four Plymouth Barred Rock chickens. One is named Jasmine, she's medium sized, and three one-month old chicks. One is named Moose. As soon as I have a better way of distinguishing them from the others, I'll put bracelets around their legs and name them according to their colored bracelet. That's my master plan.
