Ok. You got me. I resisted the chickens till you did the polka dots. For an angry chicken protector, you still have a great sense of humor! Thanks for the giggles.
I am not a "bird" person. At all!! But I do love your chickens!! They make me laugh!! Out Loud, so's I get the hairy eyeball from DH!!! ~snicker~ Good Luck getting your varmit(s)!! You know he told all his friends and family about the loverly chicken dinner!! There is always more than one!!

I love these chickens!! What a statement they make. I grew up in the country and my gram'ma had rows of chicken coops in the back (eggers) and some privileged few running around (stewers). And just like humans, they really had their cliques and shunned a few. I would just love to have this as a stamp and send cards to all my cousins. What memories we all have to share 'caring for gram's chickens'...feed, water, collecting eggs and shoveling manure. LOL.
BWAHAHAHAHA, I LOVE IT! The story of my life! LOL You are so full of great ideas and creativity! You are absolutely funny, too...what a kick to come here and know I'll leave with a smile!
Glad the chickens are still safe...and that smell, OMG, that will be there a long time...that stuff takes FOREVER to wear off! BLEAH! So sorry your barn is stinky now!
Hope you catch the 'coon soon...
Anna - I love your "Clique" chickens. Ohmygoodness! The one with the necklace kills me! Too cute. I'm realy sorry about your (real) chickens. I do hope you find the coon - I saw one in our neighborhood yesterday morning. Every time I ride my bike through the acreages near our home, and I see chickens just pecking around in the yards, I think of you!! Good luck! Hopefully he'll get discouraged and move on. What a lot of trouble to have to lock them down each night. Poor things. xoxo from Idaho, Jeanne
This is priceless!! I LOVE it. I can think of a few captions that would go great with these ladies! Can you PLEASE make this one into a stamp? Perhaps "Crazy for Chickens II"? pretty please? :)
OK that is twice this week you have made me almost cover my monitor with a beverage. I need to stop drinking when I read your blog. This is a riot! I love your chickens. -Molly B
So cute Anna! :) I also have a soft spot for chickens!
Polka dotted in crowd huh? Hilarious!
Esp. love the little grass stickin' out of the tall one's beak. Presh!
This is so very delightful and delicious. I love them all. The looks on their faces and the yummy dots too. Great illustration. I love your style. I will be back for more this wholesome goodness! Thanks for sharing.
You are so talented! Great sketch! This would make a great stamp! Best, Curt
