Home to Roost

To answer the questions, yes - I am home for good!  WooHoo!

Here are a few other things who found their way home also:
Any guesses (from those who don't know) what that is?

How about a hint?
That is how our honey bees arrived just a few short weeks ago! 
Skid row?
And in no time, Pig Pen literally just dumped them in.
The Queen in her temporary castle.

Other characters roosting around...
They are up on the third rung already.   Which maybe you can tell, is near the top of the door frame. 
And then they made the leap to the corner rung above that!

Now I am sure this comes as no surprise to most of you, however -the proud Mama Hen in me thinks my chickens are phenomenal and aspire to greatness.
But what about the funny looking one?  Did you see him/her?
Oh, not what you expected?  Hey, it's close!
The Show Off...Or Show Stopper.  You decide!

  2. When I first looked at the photo, I wondered why APG had four one-holers, with only two in the family. Extras for company?

    That has to be the cutest chicken ever.

    Granny, not a 4 holer never occured to me, but I can see it now!

    Tami, now you want me to paint up the bird!? Aye! He already has a complex!

    MamaTea, well when you get your homestead re-arranged, you need to have entertainment factor too then!

    Carolyn, no regrets with adding bees. If you do get them, you will be HOOKED!!!

    Erin, bedazzle??? I wonder if I could find beaded chicken diapers to work with. Hmmm

    Aunt Diane! What a wonderful surprise here! If you find some of your goodies missing from your warmer climate garden...it may not be bunnies! ;) Can't wait to see you!!!
