Glory Bee's Court | Chickens in the Road

Jan
4

Glory Bee, holding court with the hens.

She needs some kind of company during (temporary) periods when she’s separated from mommy. The chickens enjoy her big giant baby back.

It’s a good place to stretch out and straddle….

….or even take a nap!

Looks like the hens have found a nice furry heating pad for this cold weather!

If a few more chickens would climb aboard Glory Bee, the chickens would have warm feet and Glory Bee would have a feather blanket (albeit a live blanket).

It looks like such a peaceful place! I think you should write some children’s picture books with GB as the main character. All her adventures would make some really fun stories & the pictures would be adorable.

My first thought was, “That is so cute” they all look like they get along so well. Your farm is really looking great but lots of work I am sure!

And hopefully not lay eggs. Can’t wait until we can have chickens, CW already has his picked out.

It looks to me like story-time in the barnyard. The chicken recites to Glory Bee
“The more it snows (Tiddly Pom)
The more it goes (Tiddly Pom)
On snowing.
And nobody knows (Tiddly Pom)
How cold my toes (Tiddly Pom)
How cold my toes (Tiddly Pom)
Are growing.”

And Glory Bee responds
“Cottleston Cottleston Cottleston Pie,
Why does a chicken? I don’t know why.
Ask me a riddle and I reply
Cottleston Cottleston Cottleston Pie.”

And then they all snuggle up together and have some cookies and warm milk…

Example of a symbiotic relationship. They are both getting warmth from the others body heat and the chicken can pick lice (if GB were to have any). Win, win!

This may be a stupid question, but how long until a baby cow becomes a full-grown cow?

Are you still milking her mama? Or is Glory Bee doing that for you?

She sure is a pretty baby!
