The Chickens

The past month has been a rough one for this new blogger.  It's a life lesson and one that many living in a rural setting understand.

We have a couple of dogs.  One who is supposed to work cows and is terrified of them and one who is scared of very few things.  We knew that our cow dog had a 'taste' for chicken.  We had taken precautions to minimize her interaction with the chickens.  One day, we had an equipment failure and she was able to roam unnoticed for some time.  As a result, "Peggy's Playful Ponderings" will be ending.

I have replenished by flock and am taking time to get to know the new girls' personalities and see who stands out from the crowd!  Could be my "Valley Girls" (aka California Whites), one of the Reds, or Boris the Guinea!
