A future chicken chaser?

So far, Sunny seems relatively uninterested in the chicks….though I suspect she’s putting on a show for my benefit. Typically, she’ll wander by their cage whenever I’m in the vicinity without so much as a look. As if to say, “See, mom. NOT interested. LA LA LA LA LA!”  But every once in a while I’ll catch her staring at them and licking her chops, in what I’d call a KFC trance. 

In other chicken news, my next door neighbors informed me they just found a POISONOUS COPPERHEAD SNAKE right outside their chick pen.  Gak, I HATE SNAKES!! Hate them!!! Luckily, they killed it before it got too close, but still….it’s a reminder predators…even the really scary poisonous ones….lurk.

Hmmm, I have the chicks outside in the yard right now in a makeshift pen. Perhaps I shall go check on them.
