Mange No More!

As we all know, Jessie was less than romantic when it came to his girls.  After a while the girls all had bare backs (think about it...)  Anyway, after Jessie went to be with the Lord the girls didn't grow their feathers back as I had expected them to do.  All of this time I've had mangy looking chickens.  They looked like something you would see rescued by the SPCA. Well, I am happy to announce that all of the girls are growing their feathers back!  Pearl even has some tail feathers coming in. I'll post pictures soon.

Evidently they were "molting" and this is to happen every year.  So if you happen to stop by my house during the Fall don't judge me, and I won't judge you when your kids look sloppy. ;)
