Bye Bye Velvet aka ELVIS

Velvet has always been so ugly that he is

adorable! He has been

my favorite since day one!

But we have one rooster too many so he has to go. He is going to be a spoiled rotten happy one and only Roo with his new chicken mama Teresa! Elvis is anxiously awaiting for his Priscilla (aka Mystery Chick) to become of age...

Late January or in February Priscilla and Elvis will be reunited in marital bliss.

The Velvet Rooster!

My favorite little chicken is Velvet. The older Velvet gets, the more she looks like a rooster. If he is a rooster, and gets raised up in the same flock with James, everything will be ok as long as Velvet remembers his place. He will be number THREE. James, Juliet and then Velvet.

All of the chickens are in that funky teenager stage. Velvet looks very uncomfortable and adorable. These babies are changing every day. Tomorrow they will all look different and be a little more grown. One day soon Velvet will be beautiful. But right now he looks itchy and miserable.
