🐔🐔 Just a few FUN Chicken Facts: 🐔🐔

1. Chickens are living descendants of dinosaurs.
2. Chickens aren’t completely flightless. Today’s domestic chickens still have the ability to fly, although not as effectively. Chickens can fly for short distances – enough to clear obstacles or reach a perch.
3. Chickens can dream.
4. Chickens have better color vision than humans. Like humans, chickens have color vision, and are able to see red, green and blue light. However, what makes chicken vision unique from ours is that they are also able to see ultraviolet light, which are the colors you see when using a black light!
5. Chickens have complex communication. Chickens have over 30 unique vocalizations that they use to communicate a wide variety of messages to other chickens, including mating calls, stress signals, warnings of danger, how they are feeling and food discovery.
6. Chickens have great memories. Chickens are able to recognize over 100 different faces, even after being separated for extended periods of time, highlighting their long-term memory capabilities. These faces don’t just include chickens, they can recognize the faces of humans too!
7. Chickens bathe by covering themselves in dirt.
8. Chickens have a pecking order.
9. Egg shell color can be determined by the hen’s earlobe.
10. Chickens are very intelligent animals. Studies have shown that chickens are self-aware and can distinguish themselves from others. They learn from one another, such as a chick learning from her mother which foods are good to eat. Chickens can also demonstrate complex problem-solving skills.

The Farm

Paul and I have worked for the past few years to reach this point in our life where we can purchase land and create a farm together! We are so excited to be in the East Texas area with 13.2 acres and a Log Cabin! Dream come true!

Our first addition to the farm will be our “kids”. They will be arriving on January 1st. A boy and a girl. Loki and Britches! When you see pictures, you will surely understand. They will be 6 weeks old when we get them! Our next addition is planned to be chickens. After we settle in the goats will be work on the chicken coop....it will not disappoint. We have so many ideas!

If any of you have comments or ideas or suggestions, please share! We love input from our friends and family and if you ever wanna get away....come see us!
