A Bucket Of Chicken

September 17, 2008

in Farm Critters

No, this bucket of chicken isn't Colonel Sanders KFC.

It's not any kind of processed chicken at all!  This one is still completely in the natural state...

Now, her choice of a nesting site isn't exactly all natural. I mean, she's a pretty trendy chick here to be choosing a bright purple bucket for her pad!

Just gives a "bucket of chicken" a whole new meaning, doesn't it?

Buff Orp hens make such good momma, and they are so full of personality. I’m glad your girl shared a little humor with you.

How funny! Chickens will nest in anything! I wonder if mine will ever try something so creative and hip?

I find that really sweet. She looks so content in there.

Buffs really are fun chickens. I enjoy my little flock. They do nest in some funny places though! This one does indeed seem content to sit in a bucket. She’s been there several days already.

This picture is too cute!! Our chickens are always cuddling around in the weirdest places. Behind a trash can for instance!

They seem to like little hidey-holes. We’ve got another hen that nexts underneat The Farmer’s tool shed. You just never know where you’re going to find a nesting hen!
