For me treasure comes in ovoid, tiny, tasty, little packages!
There's just something sweet about a clutch of eggs. I find them visually charming in their unadorned simplicity.
My four rescue chickens are good layers of medium-size eggs in shades of soft brown.
The Girls are settling in nicely discovering that I'm not an ogre but a source of tasty treats and kind words. At first they were terrified of me...now they approach wondering what I might have for them. Their confidence grows daily.
They love free-ranging throughout the gardens lunching on the lawn, digging fat, scrumptious worms (you've got to see this from a chicken's viewpoint), snarfing up my seedlings, and making chicken wallows in my garden beds.
Yes, they're happy and I'm happy with them!
