Of course being related to birds, I tend to keep my distance but I love to watch them roam our property and watching them run? Too much fun!<br />Now our rooster was a problem, so he is now our 'former' rooster and can't hurt anyone anymore!<br /><br />Beautiful photos!<br /><br />DeannaDeanna Rabe - Creekside Cottage Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133684514103206137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-82206746693728338082013-10-01T19:59:40.769-04:002013-10-01T19:59:40.769-04:00I removed the other comment because it had numerou...I removed the other comment because it had numerous typos.

I had a wild out of control rooster in my preschool years which chased me around our old farmhouse. Don't recall the chickens being unfriendly but that rooster was definitely cranky.

He would wait for me to come out in the back yard and when I did, he would charge toward me, fly up in my face, often knock me down and jump up and down on me. He had sharp spurs on the backs of his legs and he hurt. I would have run the other way, too, if I had seen all of the "killer chickens" in your picture charging toward me.susie @ persimmon moon cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653330247272673990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-69699547526471296322013-10-01T15:37:28.676-04:002013-10-01T15:37:28.676-04:00Wow, I had a similar experience only it was at a d...Wow, I had a similar experience only it was at a duck farm in Long Island.

I did have pastel colored chickens and when they grew up, my Mother took them to a young man who worked in the same building and he had them for dinner. I was heartbroken that someone would eat my chicks! When the next Easter rolled around and it came time to pick a chick, I said "NO" ... didn't want to fall in love and then watch my chick become someones dinner. Thanks for sharing the lovely Autumn color.

I remember seeing pictures, probably in magazines, of the pastel chickens but I was a city girl and we didn't have any pets, not even a teeny tiny turtle or a hamster. I do remember a house 2 blocks away that had chickens and a cow or two when I was just a child. In the city. Very unusual. I'm glad you got your beautiful photos though and that you were faster than the chickens.
