Meet the Hens

Backyard Poultry

Acorn and Peeper

Are these two chickens actually posing for a picture?? Or maybe they’re both making the same complaint about that overturned treat container. Anyway, this starts my series of “chicken profiles,” with not-so-perfect shots of my first flock of hens. I’ll go over the difficulties of poultry photography later! For now, this is Peeper (on the right) and Acorn, the Araucana all grown up after its chickie picture, Cute Baby. It looked quite different from the other hens, but got along pretty well with them. It sure has beautiful feathers!
