I remember snoshoe. I know we all think different but snoshoe in my mind is one of the most striking birds (eagles) I have ever seen. Love her color, her feet, and I think she has an eye for me. LOL Haystack

LOL Haystack! You are tooo funny.. She has her eagle eye on you!
I know you would LOVE this bird.. she runs to me every time I go out.. and she wants to sit on my lap. She is the only hen that truly demands attention.. or she will ride on your foot. She also has a unique cluck.. sounds like she is saying "yeah... yeeah"
Her foot feathers are worn and dirty now.. but she gets to go wherever she wants.. and she likes the dirt and compost pile..
Here she is with the Blue Modern and Susan who has adopted the cochins.. They are the only thing speckled like she is! LOL

ZZ's is that the modern game that gets the free ride and thinks he has mated. I can't tell what came to mind when you first said that!! Now that Snoshoe chick is one chick I'd like to put a lip lock on. LOL Haystack (She is gorgeous).

LOL Yes, Haystack.. that's him, but it was a Rhode Island Red.. He likes big women. He was flying in the wind like she was wearing a superman cape!
