It's been a busy week here at the farm.

It finally rained and everything is green again 

which of course means the lawn needs mowing again.

It also means that I have roses and dahlias in my kitchen window

to enjoy while we watch the hummybird wars outside.  My heavens those

tiny things can zoom.  They really don't need to be quite so territorial-

there's lots of food in the feeder.  I'm just glad nobody seems to get hurt

because they're lots of fun to watch.

These are my new pet chickens - they're baby Cochins. 

Cochins are big, friendly balls of fluff and feathers.  Those are

feathers on their feet.  They're a Chinese breed and can grow to be about 8 lbs 

which is pretty large for a chicken.  They don't lay well but that's ok because 

I have my Buff Orpingtons and Ameracaunas to lay eggs.  

And when the do lay, they're great mothers.

Cochins became famous in the 1800's when some were given to Queen Victoria

as a gift and she absolutely adored them.

I can see why.

This little lady is a Cochin Banty. 

She'll be a lot smaller - but again - the feathers on her feet.

After choring- back inside, I'm working on the patterns for my latest

fabric line and on my latest Tablestand quilt.

It's time for pumpkins and witches again :)
