I love chickens!  Chickens are the best! I'm heart broken when they die, so I try to spend as much time with them as I can. My chickens are very sweet and treat the other chickens like a sister.                                         Best chickens that live (or lived) on my farm:                                         1.

first chicks! My granddaddy has a small farm. He started out with chickens but there were a few problems like hawks and raccoons, so he got goats to protect them. I loved going to his house because he let me see his animals and check the eggs. I loved it soooo much that my mom got me chickens! Some of them died, but that didn't stop me. After my favorite one died that door closed and another door opened. My good friend gave us 7 new chicks and my dad's cousin sold us 2 new bunnies, and the farm had begun. Now I love farming more than ever because now I know if that door closes then some way, some how another door will open even if it seems it never will.
