Snow, Belle and Ella...they are still pullets and we don't expect eggs until Spring but I will be tickled pink if one shows up in the nesting box one cold winter morning. Anyway...it has amazed me that I find myself so attached to these girls. They know my voice now and cock their heads when i am talking to them, as if they actually understand what I am saying. My girls to be seen in a future post. We haven't gotten the guineas yet...but coming soon. xo LynnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-91032790462140629002009-11-05T20:04:31.808-05:002009-11-05T20:04:31.808-05:00They are so stinking cute!

I was pleasantly surprised to see you involved in a thankful month as well. I did not know about Lee's month of thanksgiving when I started doing the same thing. We just have to focus on our blessings no matter what.<br /><br />So thanks for the comments and the uplifting posts.Karen Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08431657757688742128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-34541922509048631132009-11-04T14:00:35.951-05:002009-11-04T14:00:35.951-05:00Nature and friends, a wonderful combination.
