Chickens

When we first moved out here we inherited 7 chickens from the people that lived here previously.

We had 3 roosters and 4 egg-laying hens.  
The hens were laying some pretty good size eggs.



But one day, the "alpha" rooster attacked my baby.  
She got a total of 10 chicken "bites", of which one of 
them required 2 stitches. Did you know, there's only 
2 reported cases of "chicken bites" a year in the U.S. 
and my child is one of the 2 cases?!



And then one day, one of the chickens disappeared.  Then gradually, they all disappeared.  We believed they were either eaten by coyotes, raccoons, or possums.  Karma?  I think yes!
