Three Hens and a Rooster


Three Hens and a Rooster
Originally uploaded by librarian.laura

The chicks have grown a bit. It looks like one of the New Hamphire Bantams is a rooster. It has been quiet around the yard in the morning so he can add to the atmosphere when he learns to crow. He does not have any other rooster to compete with. It may take him a while to start crowing. The "peeps" have been replaced by a crackly murmur. It is a strange sound for a chicken. I think they are trying to find their grown up voice.
