This is Eva - always first out of the henhouse, first to the breakfast porridge and first to greet me no matter what time of day. She loves being held and stroked. Oh and the big bird is me! lol!
I think I'll get some chickens, but right now a couple of sheep would be better, I hear they eat anything, or is that a goat? Anyway, your hair looks nice Denise.
Hello Eva! I'd love to cuddle a hen! I went to The Beetroot Tree Gallery in Derbyshire a while back and they have hens in the garden, one othem had got out and she let me pick her up and cuddle her, we had quite a 'chat' too!
Nice to meet you Eva and to see you Denise. I just never think of a hen as having much personality. You and your hen sagas have proven me wrong. Have a great day with your renovation.
Denise, Eva is lovely. I wouldn't have believed you post about chickens liking to be pet until just recently. My charges do not have names that I am aware of but they sure do have unique personalities! Thanks for sharing and have a great week. Smiles
People used to think of chickens as pretty boring, not very bright creatures, didn't they? I think perhaps it's convenient to look at them that way for some, but they're quite fascinating with their hierarchy and their little foibles, aren't they?
OH no! Don't do it Rosy! They are so messy (no offense Evie) and they have this great urge to scratch as well as not being kitti-litter trainable. I think it would be a disaster, though I'm sure they are cuddly and sweet,-- but out of doors.
Good to meet you Eva ~ Be careful though, you mother is working hard and gaining muscles...That hold she has on your neck might be just a tad uncomfortable in a short while. ;)
She is lovely - I dream of keeping hens! Please check my comment on your Saturday post - you won my Lenten Giveaway#1 !!
ReplyDeleteCan't see the family resemblance,sorry, perhaps Eva looks more like her Daddy?!!!

How sweet:-) I've been dreaming again of keeping chickens but don't really think it's feasible. I'll just have to keep admiring yours;-)
ReplyDeleteI think I'll get some chickens, but right now a couple of sheep would be better, I hear they eat anything, or is that a goat?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, your hair looks nice Denise.
Eva is a lovely gal.... and so are you!
ReplyDeleteIt is therapeutic stroking an animal, isn't it?

Good job my Max can't use the computer as I am sure he would fancy her rotten.

you are so funny.
ReplyDeleteEva is cute, she is lucky to have you.
smiles.
So pretty and Interesting!
ReplyDeletePlease come and see my ABC Wednesday post, thanks!
Very nice looking picture the two of you here.
ReplyDeleteI often wonder if a hen could be kept as indoor pets like one keeps a parrot indoors. I guess some day I will just have to try that.
Be sure to pop on over to check out my I post when you get the chance. Thanks.
I would love to keep a couple of chickens, but our yard is too small.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to see you and Eva. I never would think a hen would love stroking...perhaps we're not so different.. HaHa.
ReplyDeleteCute pic...I think maybe your shortest post ever? lol
ReplyDeleteShe is lovely, you are lucky to have a friend like Eva ;-)
