Pretty Girl

As many of you know, Granny has a rooster named Pretty Boy. Last week, a family friend brought Granny a hen. Guess what her name is? Yep, Pretty Girl.

Kennedy has adopted both chickens as her own. She feeds them everyday. She isn't afraid of them at all. She climbed right inside their pen-no big deal.

Well yesterday, there was an egg in their bed! She was thrilled! Eggs come from chickens?! B said she couldn't wait to get home to show me her egg. Well, the shell on fresh eggs is not as thick as those you buy in the store....she dropped it in her daddy's truck. B said she was devastated. She couldn't even look at him. When they came home she ran into the kitchen and hugged me, she was in tears. Poor little thing. When I washing her hair last night we were talking about the chickens. She said if Pretty Girl has another egg, she's going to let Kam carry it.

Sweet girl!!



***UPDATE***
Yesterday Pretty Girl "Dropped" another egg, as Ken puts it....
What happened? Ken dropped it, too. Again. Sissy has decided to make her a basket to carry her egg in in the future!
